    Jeff Driskel in QB Controversy

    https://stripehype.com/2018/08/22/be...b-controversy/

    Jeff Driskel, on the other hand, came in and once again looked very steady and made some true NFL-level throws. The best throw of the night was a perfect 30 yard pass to Alex Erickson on 3rd and 11. Driskel dropped the ball in perfectly for Erickson on the sideline so he could keep his feet in bounds.
    Jeff Driskel has been very impressive going back to last preseason. According to NFL.com, over the last two preseasons for the Bengals, he has completed 34 out of 52 attempts, which is good for a 65% completion rate. He has thrown for 423 yards with an 8.1 yard average per throw and a QB rating of 97. Driskel was the second-highest graded offensive player in last week’s game against Dallas, according to PFF.


    Driskel carries bad football team on his back for 2nd week in a row.

    Love seeing this! Pushing for a starting job while also being excellent in his role as backup. He just does his job.

    I'm watching Driskel right now (on Netflix replay) against the Cowboys, and he's playing a great game. That 30-yard pass play referenced above was beautiful. It came on a very deep down and out route, on 3rd down and 11, after the Bengals were penalized the previous play. It also kept the Bengals' 8-point scoring drive alive. (Driskel also passed for a successful 2-point conversion.)

    Very few QB's have the arm strength to make THAT pass. Driskel has a very strong arm. Driskel finished 11 of 16 for 119 yds, and 1 INT. He's fun to watch too.

    Re: Jeff Driskel in QB Controversy

    I just tuned back in to see what the final score was gonna be and happened to catch it just as Driskel was put in. So, I watched the rest of the game. He looked good. Yes, it was garbage time, but he made the throws, and even ran the ball off a scramble, got out of bounds, and gained 7 yards. He made be mostly a back-up, but he has a career in the NFL. In fact, being mostly a back-up is a good thing. Draw that big paycheck and don't have your body beat up, and have to worry about concussions.

    Dalton has had a history of collapsing in prime time games. The Bengals have some weapons. If Driskel gets in for any appreciable amount of time moving forward he will have a good opportunity to succeed.

    Jeff gets into the game against the Saints. Used him as a runner same way Saints use Hill. Radio broadcast no mention of Florida. They said, “third year man out of Louisiana Tech.”

    You gotta love it!

    Dalton sucks. Driskel will be starting for the Bengals before the season is over.

    Driskel won his first NFL game today. At least I think the Raiders are still an NFL team.
