I don't usually care too much about uniforms but whatever those stripes are on the shoulders are ugly.

If he throws for 48 TDs at NCSU, I'd let him punch ME in the face.

Looking at some career stats, a few guys have a chance to move up the all-time lists at State

Career Pass Yards at State
1. Philip Rivers 13484
2. Jamie Barnette 9461
3. Russell Wilson 8545
4. Mike Glennon 7411
5. Ryan Finley 6572

for reference, he threw for 3000 yards in 2016 and 3500 in 2017. so barring injury, it's very likely he ends up at #2.

All time completions at State
1. Philip Rivers 1087
2. Russell Wilson 682
3. Mike Glennon 646
4. Jamie Barnette 637
5. Ryan Finley 554

should easily end up at #2 here.

All time passing TDs at State
1. Philip Rivers 95
2. Russell Wilson 76
3. Mike Glennon 63
4. Jamie Barnette 59
5. Jacoby Brissett 43
6. Terry Harvey 38
7. Ryan Finley 35

doesn't have much chance to move up higher than 5. threw for 18 and 17 TDs respectively in 2016 and 2017. with a really big year, he's got an outside chance to pass Barnette...but that depends on pass heavy we are in the red zone. we've been more run heavy with Dayes, Hines, and JaySam in the redzone recently.

All time receiving yards at State

1. Torry Holt 3379
2. Jericho Cotchery 3119
3. Owen Spencer 2441
4. Eddie Goines 2352
5. Nas Worthen 2247
6. Mike Quick 1934
7. Koren Robinson 1914
15. Kelvin Harmon 1479
19. Steph Louis 1333


Harmon could move into the top 3 with another 1000 yard season, Louis could move into #6 with another 600 yard season. Jakobi Meyes is much further down the list, but if he stays for 4 years he could find his way pretty far up this list.

With 8 TDs, Harmon could move into the top 5 in receiving TDs at State.

i'm assuming Harmon is gone after this year, but if he were to stay all 4 years he would probably #2 in most receiving categories behind only Holt...and would have a chance to pass in Holt in a few categories too.

I could definitely see 25-30 TDs.. Obviously the wrs are the better of the offensive groups, could pass more than the last couple years. I'm not a huge fan of Finley, but that's pretty impressive that he'd be the 2nd best qb statistically we've had

Why are you not a huge fan of Finley? I mean, he’s not Philip Rivers but he’s pretty damn good. Arguably the best returning QB in the conference.

^Finley has been pretty remarkable, considering he's not even that talented. He just always seems to know where to go with the ball, which might be all on Drinkwitz, but it's still such a change from other QBs we've seen

And with Tobias Palmer and Quintin Payton as your leading WRs. (Not going to lie ... i barely remember who Quintin Payton is)

I think he's clearly better than Brissett and Jacoby is good enough to start for multiple NFL teams so saying he's not that talented is a bit of a stretch.

I think he has talent, sure -- I guess I should have said he's not that naturally talented, at least compared to most of the other guys on the list. His arm strength isn't impressive, he's not fast nor big, he's accurate but not on a can't-miss level like Rivers.

I think the one thing he excels most at is processing things quickly and getting the ball out, which is certainly a talent in itself.

I dunno. I don't think he's as good as most people seem to. He's going to put up pretty good numbers but I think that's the system too. Sometimes when it's not a nice easy read or two he seems to be pretty inaccurate when he tries to make things happen. Or maybe I'm just remembering a few plays too well.. Also he's got a rag arm

I think the offense is probably designed for more high % plays/passes. So yeah, I can see that. I have my doubts about Finley in he NFL. But he’s been a very good QB for us

Glennon made me think Quintin Payton was actually good. So that’s how good Glennon was.

Glennon had all the arm talent in the world, knew his offense really well, but he just wasn't/isn't a leader. He's an ideal back-up in the NFL but definitely not a franchise QB.

Finley is a great college QB(fits his system, extremely accurate, typically makes the right decision, protects the ball, extends plays, etc) but I think his upside in the NFL is going to completely depend on what team takes him. I absolutely think he could be a starting QB in a system like KC or NE, but he'll never survive in a scheme like SEA or GB where they just put the entire offense on the QB. The staff/players here raved about how quickly Finley won over the team and became the leader on offense, so I think he has the locker room "it" factor that Glennon was missing(that clearly Brissett has).

I'm optimistic about Finley going into this year. After his first year the biggest knock on his game was that he needed to improve his deep ball accuracy. Last year he came in and improved on that and the offense took a step forward. What are the biggest knocks on his game heading into this season? He struggles in cold weather? Is that it? Looking at our schedule, we shouldn't have any true cold weather games. It'll be interesting to see how he handles not having as good of a running game this year and if he can handle more weight on his shoulders.

I pretty much agree with all that except the leadership part with Glennon. Not really disagreeing, just not sure the basis for it.

Glennon was a perfectly fine leader, but he can hold the ball too long trying to make a play and that combined with the agility of an obese rhinoceros and a sieve of an offensive line led to some bad things.

Also, Finley still definitely struggles with deep balls.

Yeah the reason Glennon isn’t a starter is his due to his own shortcomings on the field. Not leadership

Glennon has a great arm but lacks the finesse throws that are needed to succeed in the nfl.

The leadership thing is actually something I heard on a show with a former teammate. The former player said he was quiet and would back down anytime he was challenged. Take it FWIW, but I definitely got the idea that he either wasn't super confident or he just wasn't a great leader or someone that could command the respect of the locker room.

Made him sound like he was a more Vanilla version of Jay Cutler with better accuracy but a weaker arm.

I heard from a former player that he was basically Tom Brady in the locker room.


But seriously, I heard from multiple former players that no one liked Marcus Stone and the team had no confidence in him. FWIW.

“Official word from @PackFootball on freshman LB Payton Wilson. “Payton reinjured his knee off campus over a month ago and underwent surgery. He has already begun the rehab process and the athletic training staff expects him to make a full recovery.”

He was right

good overview but surprised they didn't mention Cary Angeline. at 6'7" 250, it's hard to imagine him not making an impact as a dependable, middle-of-the-field target, or at least as a safety blanket (assuming his hands are as good as advertised). i feel like it's gonna be hard to keep him, Harmon, Meyer, and Louis all in check.
