May the football godz look kindly down upon the feeble and inept.

Well except for those 5 or so passes up the middle of the field including that strike for a TD of course

Talking more about his broad body of work. I think he's elite in his back shoulder and go balls. Great at diagnosing the blitz and getting rid of it. But his play action/2nd level middle of the field stuff is not as big of a part of his game. That will come with pro system experience, I fully believe he'll get there. Hard to defend a guy who can do both

Only caught the YouTube highlights but Mendoza looks the real deal right? Definitely more elusive than I imagined given the some of the comments I’ve been reading

Moore probably needs another year in college or if he does come out then at very least, a year behind the scenes on a team

If you had only watched his tape before the playoffs, he'd still have been the clearcut #1 pick and potentially generational prospect at QB. After these playoff games, he's undeniable. He's playing at the same level or better on the big stage.

We're lucky to get him and better put good coaches and pieces around the guy. Whatever he needs to learn/adapt to at the next level, does anyone think he's not capable of doing so?

play action is not a great part of his game but I also prefer play action from a guy who sets up under center. But he can hit guys on slants and ins effectively, but like you said he works the edges really well. Nobody is a complete package coming up but he is as close as I have seen since Burrow maybe. Gotta get him under center more, but not like they did with Geno where when he is under center you pretty much know it is a run and you stuff it.

Still work to do. He’s giving his teammates all the credit and saying he has plenty to work on. Bus guys attitude is off the charts

Edit. Reddit doesn’t embed but thier is a video clip in the link

I think there's zero chance he returns. He's graduated already. Taking online only courses towards a masters. 1st overall money is nothing to scoff at, the only reason he's still in college was to improve his draft stock.

And Indiana wouldn't have done this, and neither would Hoover, if there wasn't certainty that Mendoza was declaring.

He's coming out because the NCAA has denied his eligability for a 6th year.

I knew that before Attyla reminded me lol I just didn't say it because the end result was the same;)

I hope Moore stays in school making the pick obvious.
