hope desmond ridder will b starter RISE UP 🦅

    FuckRoys

    @Anastasia Sokolov just say you a ridder fan 🤣 enjoy preseason cuz that’s the only time you will see #4 on the field. By mid season everyone will forget about ridder & mariota will be in top QB conversation and league on alert. I say he wins Comeback player of the year

    SFC Bolted Duck

    @FuckRoys 🔥🔥🔥👊 my guy spitting straight facts. Titans wanted Mariota to play QB like Matt Ryan with no O-Line and no weapons. Mariota was a top 50 player in NFL in 2017 (3 yrs after draft) he was ranked #50. Carr right now is in the 60s somewhere. That’s with an offense not designed for him. Oregon, LV and now ATL let him be. A mobile Dual threat QB. He succeeded at the other two stops (raiders vs chargers wk 15 2020) and even had mild success at Tenn. y’all have no idea what’s about to happen in Atlanta this year. Mariota and Kyle Pitts??? 🫣 defenses running scared.

But I seen that he learned how to slide the next day at practice…….Arthur musta said something tho🤔

AlanShirtsink

You guys sure have hard on for Ridder. Funny when you have a more talented proven person in Mariota. Ridder MAY be good at some point. Mariota has already improved the teams he has been on. The Titans haven’t won a playoff game since he left and funny how the Raiders finally made the playoffs when he was a member. It is just the physical part that matters

    FuckRoys

    @Antwanh5 these ridder fans are delusional

    Films

    They are crazy bro. I never seen a hard on like this for a project qb.

    Noah Tindell

    They beat the Patriots in the 2019 Wild Card and destroyed the Ravens in the Divisional with Tannehill at QB (even though he only completed 15 passes total in both of those games). Also, Mariota was a backup in Vegas and only showed up in certain QB run packages and stuff. They made the playoffs because of Carr and they might do it this year as well. I agree, Mariota can make us good, but there’s no need to condescend Ridder for no reason.

    AlanShirtsink

    @Noah Tindell he was on the team

Keith Spencer

And Desmond need a better slide too

Can you two stop insulting Falcons fans. We are smart enough to know that Ridder struggled, so nobody is putting a gold jacket on him just yet.

    Noah Tindell

    Honestly, he didn’t struggle, his receivers just weren’t catching for him. He had a pick that was called back and threw another dropped pick late in the game, but that was it. Every QB has that kind of stuff happen to them. He bounced back and recovered with the 2nd chance and you like to see that from a rookie.

    Dave

    @Noah Tindell Honestly Noah, for the most part he did not struggle. My comments were based on attempting to establish some feedback from the fanbase. His pick that was negated due to a penalty and the almost pick cannot be ignored. I was pleased with Desmond’s performance.

FuckRoys

Ridder fans are delusional. Dude will be warming the beach for couple seasons.

    Samurai Jack

    Dude ain’t warming the bench💀 although he isn’t the starter as of now he is most definitely the future for them team especially with extra development.

Keith Spencer

I know Arthur like i knew i shouldn’t have put Drake in????

Richard Pierce

We can win with either one of them.We have something we have not had in a very long time and thats a qb who can move if his protection breaks down. Matty Ice was a great qb but he could not avoid the rush when the protection broke down. Smith has us on the right track.

Richard Pierce

In my opiniin Ridder needs to carry a clip board for his first yr. To learn how to play in the NFL. Nothing against Ridder you understand.

    Samurai Jack

    Not the full season he needs at least 3 games

    Robert Wolfe

    He is a good quarterback riddles is but
    Coach has to bring him into the NFL the right way to be a great quaterback and not make the same happen to him as Mariota had to go through early in his carrer.He is the future after mariota.But not ready as starter.

    Robert Wolfe

    I’ve seen many quarterbacks come in the league and they put them in to early.Mariota was one.That had to go through the school of hard knocks.Hope riddler.Dont have to go through the same thing early in his carrer.He needs time to develope.

BrightBerry - quit, maybe posting once in a while

ok, ridder is going to be the goat. How ridiculous it has been, one pre season game, big deal, stop the garbage

Annie Mouse

Thanks for ur intelligent analysis. U both communicate well. Keep it up. Too many opinions only on other podcasts.
