Stanley

[TRYHARDER]

He is the ideal backup qb. Big, durable, can learn the playbook, and will accept his position as backup. He'll make a good living riding a bench and rarely seeing the field.

No shame in that. Good gig if you can get it.

Purdy just threw a ball 50 yards in the air across his body while on the move last week. What is wrong with his arm strength?

So you think he's a first rounder?

 

[ClonesFTW]

Iowa fans sure ripped on Jantz. If Iowa fans didn't spend the last year saying Stanley was as good as Purdy it wouldn't be so bad

Sadly, there are still Hawkeye fans out there that think Stanley is better somehow.

Any other questions?

Stanley seems like a good dude, but he is what he is: a guy that can make every throw but only completes 60% of his passes. He’s fine but I certainly wouldn’t want to watch him at Iowa State. He’s like a slightly better Arnaud.

I don't think arm strength is a concern with him like you say. Couldn't care less where he gets drafted he's the best QB in school history by far

 

[JP4CY]

Yeah. It’s strange. He doesn’t have a cannon, but his arm strength isn’t what will hold him back on draft day, it’ll be his height.

I think some of the height issues with QBs are slowly fading. The old adage is that height helps because you can see over the line. But that height also limits mobility to making running throws/plays. These are NFL charts from 2016 so they don’t even include the last MVP Mahomes (6-3) or the next MVP Lamar Jackson (6-2).

He's better

At what?

At what?

Pie eating contests.

First class kid but just was a mediocre football player. If he was good he would be remembered a lot differently

The only thing that makes me hesitant about next year's game is that with Stanley gone, Petras (or whoever) might actually make their offense good.

No matter who is taking snaps, they’ll always be hampered by Brian’s play-calling.

I don't know who their QB will be next year but I wish it was Stanley

Dude, he is only a sophomore.

I'm sure ISU would love another chance to finally beat Stanley. Sorry, he's gonna finish undefeated vs the best Cyclone teams in history.

Found the closet fatty

You do realize its based on the "Flat Stanley" reference? Fat Stanley just works. Continue to be awesome though...

So Duncan broke the Big 10 record for the most fields goals in a season yesterday. What does this say about Stanley as a QB and his ability in the red zone?
