Smh it's meant to be a positive post......man lol
It's meant to be sunshine blown up your arse when it's really only smoke and mirrors. He has NO chance this season of being the backup QB unless Garrett gets injured. The Nooch is needed on the PS where he can continue to develop.

HE MUST HAVE PICS OF MM with Donkeys in Tijuana. The dude can't play in the NFL.
Well, he already has played in the NFL under one of the most extreme circumstances, so there is that. No TC, no preseason, and hey guess what? You're starting this weekend against Philadelphia in the rain and wind. Sadly, you will forever be judged on this one game by some.

He has some Moxy. He needs to work on his mechanics just as Romo and Dak did. Dak still reverts to bad mechanics once in a while and it almost always turns out negative.

Honestly, I agree with some of what you say. Kid has moxy and that gives him a chance.

Is this the guy Jerry said we didn’t have a qb out there that could throw game guy or is he the stoolers game guy?

Good to hear he's filling out.
Last year he looked like a freshman QB from Permian that couldn't throw 10 yards past a mild west Texas wind.

Straight from the campgrounds in Oxnard, don't miss any developments surrounding the Cowboys' preseason and training camp position battles.

July 23

Mike McCarthy said Friday that second-year quarterback Ben DiNucci has put together an impressive offseason and may have closed the gap in the backup competition.

"I thought definitely he was one of the top guys in the offseason program as far as weight gain and strength gains in that particular area," McCarthy said. "We've just got to get him playing with a little more patience and a little more confidence."
I don't see any good worth bragging about here.

Weight and strength are not typically highly sought after attributes for NFL QBs.

That might be where he ends up. As with most things, I'll take a wait-and-see approach. Some players have taken a pretty good leap after one full offseason. Others either run in place or even slip a little. I have no idea which way DiNucci would go, but I'd rather hear something positive about him than negative.

I'm okay with that. We don't all have the same ability to discern the reality of things. Some of us figure it out way before others. But it's okay that others take more time to get there, the important thing is they get there. Amen, God bless. :thumbup:

Should we go back and look at how many times you've been wrong about the reality of things? :thumbup:

Does weight gain and strength gain mean he will be a better QB? Can't hurt. Show it on the field Nooch!

Wow. The kid has a rough 1st outing in a close loss on the road vs a division rival with a decent defense.

Yes. For sure he is trash.

Imagine what undrafted Romo would have done newly unboxed with less than one normal Rookie TC.

400+ and 3or 4 Tuds I bet, right?

LOL.........put him at TE, but not QB. QB's have been nothing but a complete disaster at the backup QB position under Jerry the last 25 years. Its like they want the young guy to ONLY have backup potential.
