    But if I am being honest with myself, I would take Jake in the Oregon offense and I would get fired at the 50.

    In an alternate universe where i'm not a Husky, I would have loved to see that.

    He's a very fucking good system QB.

    You are having a rough day. He's going to be the first QB taken in the draft. Saying he's a system QB is an archaic comment. Was Cam Newton a system QB?

    Based on pure talent I would have to go with Luck. He has a better arm, more accurate, was also mobile, and had better ball security. I'd love to see what Luck could have done with the same offensive talent around him. Mariota however, would easily be in my top 5 if not 3.

    Every quarterback is a system player. You can't have a team without a system. That system nonsense is indeed nonsense.

    Sounds like we all agree Mariota is a system QB.

    I love the ESPN memory here going all the way back to Luck.

    If you want a non champ Aikman is better

    Based on Newton's NFL career, yes.

    Mariota has the highest TD:INT ratio in the history of college football. He's probably the only QB you could ever put on any team regardless of style and they'd probably get better, but never get worse.

    Who else could do that?

    John Elway and Andrew Luck easily. Steve Young. Mark Brunell (just kidding). Cam Newton.

    Mariota is really really good, a worthy Heisman winner even, but you're quooking a little ridiculously now.

    If he wins the Pac 12 (a first), he moves up a little. He's a really good, athletic college quarterback who can make things happen. In college. So was Eric Crotch.

    If there's one constant in this universe it is that you guys never tire of being absolutely wrong about anything related to the Ducks.

    That hurdle run last night, give him the Heisman already.

    What if Mariota was a Husky?

    Fuck his parents.

    what Tui accomplished considering his surrounding talent is as impressive as anybody mentioned.

    Without running the numbers, has someone really hashed out the "talent" of the 2000 team. It seems to be a common theme that they didn't have that much talent, but i feel like there were some pretty fucking athletic guys on that squad.

    Off top, Anthony Vontoure was the most gifted dude I can remember. J. Stevens was a nightmare up the seem, Alexis was a frosh all-american and Hurst had some wiggle, Pharms was scary, Silvers and ward on the line went to the league, and I think Akbar did too.

    Plus when tui got hurt a little known picket came in and filled in nicely aka depth. I don't know
    The only first round pick on that team was Stevens and in 2000 he was a Sophomore IIRC. And then was a very late first rounder...

    How the fuck did Harbaugh not go the distance with Luck and that O-line? How did he lose to "i'm a man, i'm 40" Gundy?

    What has Harbaugh ever won?

    Elway is the most talented QB ever in the Pac 12. Hard to argue against Leinart being the most successful. Mariota can be mentioned right there with them with 3 more wins this year. Otherwise he's a step below, same tier as Luck and others.

    You know not of what you are talking.

    Elway was picked #52 overall in the MLB draft by the Yankees. He would have played for the Yanks after Indy picked him #1 overall in the NFL draft but they worked out a trade for him to go to Denver.

    If he can survive injuries in the NFL (since he has a slight build and is a dual-threat QB), he'll definitely have a better pro career than Leinart but won't match Elway or even Luck.

    As far as physical ability he is probably the best ever, for a career he'll never pass Leinart regardless of how this season ends.

    That's a LIPO situation. Mariota could be a great NFL QB for all we know.
