Heard from sources that have seen them in spring practice, that neither one is very impressive so far. Ducks flying everywhere. Great...don't need mediocrity at the field general position.
Anyone hear whether Schimonek has stood out or not? From this post, it doesn't sound like he's getting any reps with the 1's???
You do realize that Rudock started every game last season and did just fine, right? Sans at least one really dumb decision each game. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Plus, I would expect our running game to carry us, opening up the passing game.
I love threads that start with "I heard from sources". 9 times out of 10 these "sources" are completely full of crap.
Exactly. The Hawks have a returning QB who outperformed everyone's expectations in his first year as a starter with basically zero experience prior to that. Maybe he hasn't looked as crisp as he needs to, but that's what spring football is all about. Push yourself to the limit and try to make yourself better. Sometimes that comes with mistakes. Like Ferentz said in his press conference... "You aren't going to lose any games in the spring".
There's also a very good chance the OP and his "sources" are full of crap so I wouldn't waste your time looking too far into a thread like this.
Correct. Being full of it is saved for posters who share "sources" info.Eyes onlooking in the practice facility for several hours cannot be full of it. You see what you see.

My sources say 13-0 and a spot in the NC game despite all of the ducks being thrown in practice. We will just run 60 times a game. The defense is a little better than the '85 Bears. I'm sure they're right. They are very reliable sources.Hard to imagine the top 2 qbs throwing ducks for "several hours". If true, could be a number of things. Maybe they were practicing throwing laceless, weighted or even wet balls. Another thing could be not being on the same page with some of the new WR's. Any rust they may have I'm sure will get worked out this Spring.
What are your sources saying about the rest of the team?

I'm just lucky enough to have a cousin who's boyfriend's sister's hair dresser's brother is best friends with a 3rd string defensive player that leaks all of this information out.Sweet! I'm just glad these sources are willing to share this info to the public free of charge!
Didn’t Ruddock finish near the bottom of the Bigten? Why would the running game carry us this year? There are a number of new linemen playing this year and still no proven way to force good defenses to respect the pass (see LSU, MSU, Wisconsin).
