Absolutely agree. After seeing how we handled the Giants game, I have faith they'll do what's necessary to lose the Chiefs game.Corleone wrote: Thu Jan 01, 2026 2:37 pm I don't see how you can watch both players today and think the gap is even particularly close. Mendoza is our guy for sure, and Spytek/Brady need to IR a few more players to insure we get him. Mendoza to Bowers (with Jeanty running) can turn this franchise around.
That pick should be ours, just keep Mendoza healthy

I like what I see
Don’t draft him unless you are fully committed to fixing this oline though. We see what happens when a pressure or two is sent his way.
And for the love of god, draft a true X receiver.

Pocket awareness has been a constant negative on him and Indiana simply doesn't play the qb under centerAttyla wrote: Thu Jan 01, 2026 2:46 pm First half
Good
Passes were clean
Footwork was solid
Evaded and cut and ran when needed
Focused his offense
Bad
Pocket awareness, gotta get those balls out
Terrible decision blew up one of his guys
Want him under center on passing plays as well as run plays
Overall
TD passes were beauties. He needs to clean up his awareness but he saw the field downfield really well. Drop was on the defensive hit, cannot avoid those. He is leading the team.
Conclusion
He did nothing to make me not want him. He will be very good at the next level as long as we can get our protection situated
That being said forfeit or IR the entire team this Sunday and pray to God he decides to enter the draft

I’m not understanding the pocket awareness concerns. He seems to slide around the pocket, scramble, escape a few pressures, etc. Are we saying it’s a problem because he’s taken a couple of sacks when they blitz? Isn’t he extremely highly rated under pressure?

Maybe Fernando could bring his head coach with him as well.

I was gonna say I don't see the pocket awareness concerns, at least in this game. I saw one Alabama defender come untouched for the sack. Not much you can do about that. He seems to escape the pocket really well.

It seems Mendoza is showing off his legs after running very little this year.

Anyone comparing Mendoza to Cousins is blind. Kirk Cousins could never move like that.

Best comparison I got right now is Tarkenton without the boneheaded decisions with Ben's size

Not a big fan of comps, they're almost never quite accurate.ALLRAIDERWORLD21 wrote: Thu Jan 01, 2026 3:11 pm Anyone comparing Mendoza to Cousins is blind. Kirk Cousins could never move like that.
