Today is the 18th anniversary of our son, Trevin, going home to be with his Heavenly Daddy. Trevin was the peacemaker in our family. When there was discord in our house “Trevin To The Rescue” (his superhero name) showed up and brought us back together. #RibsAndRootBeerForTrevin

Hey @Patriots fans, I am on it. This week I’ll make sure to make another stupid knee jerk reaction statement so y’all can go on another Epic run. 🤦🏼♂️.

Also, if your argument against me is I’m the worst QB to win SB and my stats suck, you are right. kudos for lame argument . My thoughts are based on 30+ years deep in the weeds of FB and learning from the greatest minds the game has ever known.

I have a very simple job. fine tune a Maserati. This kid doesn’t need to change much, he only needs to build a foundation for a 15 year HOF career. Stop with the stupid narratives of “when” he gets drafted. Whoever drafts him wins the draft! #RareHorespowerTwitchCombo.

Lots of great comments about the future of quarterbacks based off last night. Lets get one thing straight the most important people, non family, in every quarterbacks development are their high school coaches and teachers. Those coaches and teachers are the foundation builders.

So to y’all football fans that disagree with my take. Your premise is lots of points, but a horrific amount of turnovers, penalties and bad decisions is ok? My take is that clean ball is beautiful ball. Please feel free to disagree and be wrong. it’s your God given right.

I would add toughness. maybe #1.
The 4 key factors for QB's:.1) Accuracy.2) Decision Making.3) Poise.4) Playmaking . Good exercise to run the QB class through these four factors. I think Burrow & Tua are both outstanding in all 4 areas.

It’s impossible to love this player more than I do. His “stuff” outweighs any trait limitations people talk about.
🎥 Jags QB @GardnerMinshew5 has been counted out over & over again. BUT he has traits you can’t measure & 1 of them is a work ethic that is relentless. He should be an inspiration to any young QB who feels overlooked. Why not YOU?

Rich nails it again! NFL is seriously lacking in coaches that know how to “nurture” a QB to reaching his potential. Lots of them can “speak” QB development, very few actually have a clue how to execute.
It’s inexcusable to me that young QB’s are left unattended on Mon & Tues by many coaches. It’s like leaving a child in a car seat in a locked vehicle while you have a drink at the bar! Absolutely insane and it’s happening w too many teams. I know b/c the QB’s tell me.
