He had a devastating, dislocating knee injury which looked very grim. He had surgery, recovery, rehab and IS playing again IN the NFL as QB…. My point is, his surgery was successful and was still able to resume a career as a QB in the NFL. It could have been career ending, but was blessed to play again and still make millions. I would imagine Teddy was happy that God blessed him the ability to play again….not, that he was/is a shell of his former self. JMHO. 🤓 Edited November 30, 2022 by Artesian_86 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sales, Benson, Carter Smith, and Moore all young guys.. fairly highly ranked and guys they like. Carp, Katic, and Weaver at least have a lot of experience. Perfectly stated. I would add Lynch to the list. Allen sang his praises in one of his pressers. There are some other guys who will compete (like Fiacable, Knight, Murphy). Maybe not great athletes but tough guys.

If we can retain Carey, I think we'll be good there. I'll feel good if we can find a dual threat qb in the portal (or two) and keep most of our players on offense, especially Lucas and Camper. Real question, and I openly admit am no football coach: Did the line get better or did it look better because we had a mobile qb until he got hurt? It would be nice to know what some of you are seeing can be aligned with coaching and not a change in offense with the QB change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benson and Sales were a lot better the 2nd half of the year. I do not believe it had a ton to do with coaching, though, some sure... I believe those two getting consistent reps/learning... the whole offense being more accustomed to Walt Bell, and then yeah, Dexters legs. I would also mention... it's not an either or thing. Like the OL didn't JUST look better because of Dexter. Simply cannot be the case. We got real movement between the B gaps vs. MSU+Purdue... heck we even ran the ball decent vs. Purdue when CB came in the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree....I jus wondered what everyone else thought. This hire tells me that Allen is definitely not leaving, especially the upcoming season..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly has a good resume, with the experience and results (multiple NFL draftees) to back it up. It's nice to see a well-documented problem addressed with urgency. I hope it works out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way these QBs are going take a look at us, is if the O-line staff and player are addressed and upgraded….. The new O-line Coach hire is a great start.
