This is so asinine. Mariota won the god damn fucking heisman trophy, this isn't some scrub from Florida Atlantic

Guy, once again, if you have followed football for more than 5 years, you would know the Heisman winner has a high degree of failure in the NFL, hence the reason the adults on this board aren't giving Mariota much of a chance to succeed in the NFL. Doesn't take away how great of a college player he was.

My guess is you didn't watch many Oregon games the past 3 years with Mariota. He's more than just the heisman, he has all the tools to succeed in the nfl.

 

[FSUmanager]

he still thinks the NFL teams give a shit about the Heisman. This is too funny.

If he does he sure should have shown them on that Monday Night against a less-than-NFL-caliber Ohio State defense.

 

[OregonDucks]

And why only of back 5 years of heisman failures? Let's go back 9 years to 2005.

They sell air pumps at Wal-Mart.

Ohio state had an extra week of practice prep over Oregon for that game.

I don't see how a patriot joke applies here?

Because if you go back 6 years you get Mark Ingram, who is going to the Pro Bowl this year(would have been Lynch if not for Superbowl).

Alright OD. Like you have anyone fooled into thinking you know what 'tools' are needed for NFL success. Cam Newton was your example of success for fucks sake...

That's a tool needed for success.

Andre Ware, Gino Torretta, Charlie Ward, Danny Wuerffel, Chris Weinke, Matt Leinart, Sam Bradford, RGIII all had the tools as well. Once again, and pay close attention, winning the Heisman means one thing and one thing only: YOU WERE A GREAT PLAYER IN COLLEGE.

Now, for all we know, maybe Mariota will break the trend of former Heisman winning QB's failing miserably in the NFL. But all I see is another version of RGIII. Dual threat QB's suck in the NFL. Chip Kelly will be jobless in 2 years with that offense.

Russell Wilson could be a 2 time SB winning QB...

He also played in a PRO STYLE OFFENSE!!! At both NC State and Wisconsin.

 

[OregonDucks]

I can't wait. I just can't wait for next nfl season.

 

[OregonDucks]

Remember when everyone said Chip couldn't make it in the nfl? Yesr one he takes philly to the playoffs.

Chip is a genius, he wouldn't trade the entire farm for a guy if he didn't think it would work.
