Got to meet Joey A…

I know how he's going to do.

He comes into a better situation than he could possibly imagine. This offense was designed not for Nico's skill set, but for Joey's.

Could Brett Favre succeed here? Johnny Manziel? Baker Mayfield?

If yes, then Joey will.
Are you really comparing this guy to a first ballot Hall of Famer and two Heisman winners?

I'm a horrible judge of character.

I offer as "Exhibit A" my ex-wife. Or Nico, whom I was initially high on. Both proved to be not worthy of my loyalty.

That being said, I like almost everything I've seen about this guy. There's just something there that says "I have yet to write the final chapter."

I hope it has a happy ending. For all of us. Let's hope he paints his masterpiece in Orange and White.

So we'll see.

SO FAR he seems to meet the character levels associated with CJH. How far his abilities can carry us is TBD, but he looks like a guy that gets to slap that placard above the door leaving the locker room with a straight face. My minimum requirement for support. Just hope he approaches his ceiling, something the last guy did not do, at least here. One year guys can earn VFL status. Lifetime fans can fail.

The big difference between Joey and Nico is that Joey doesn't strike me as the kind of QB who will be satisfied with his own stats (attemp/comple/int/td) if the team still loses. He will play to win even if his stats suffer in the final 2 minutes.

I work at a golf course in Weaverville North Carolina. Joey was up for the day to go to a wedding and was passing some time with a morning round of golf. Super nice and very humble guy. He said he was ready for the challenge and couldn’t wait to get started. Thinks he’ll be a great fit in Heup’s system.. Seemed like an awesome person! Made my day!

He a Big Boy! Just might be what the Dr. ordered!

I am hopeful Joey can have a Hendon-esque season. He has a ton of experience and I am hopeful the warp speed offence can come back and we score points like a dang video game.

Wonder if he spent some of his NIL on those studs?

Edit....Blue font. Don't won't some to get their panties in a wad. 😂

He must have an amazing grasp of the playbook to feel good enough to spend that amount of time on a round of golf and a wedding.
Yeah man. That half a day he took off in the summer before camp starts is probably worth 2 wins this year.

If he hasn't been watching film on the toilet we might not make a bowl game.

Well said.

BTW: In what era did you serve?

My father-in-law made 9 cruises as a TM in WW2. In my mind I can still see his battle flag vividly, hanging in the hallway of their house. It was kinda eye-catching...
