Kyle McCord; The King in the North!!!

[NailstheCusefan12]

More swagger than anyone I can ever remember playing this position for us. I love this clip and I’m only mildly sorry for the profanity.

McCord may very well be the football programs Pearl. He is going to instantaneously change what type of player looks to come here.

100% if he came here and had success then the name Syracuse shouldn't scare anyone anymore. 20 years of a bad reputation and we're sitting pretty.

I thought the O-Line did a great job giving him time. He not only has arm and accuracy, but he sees the field amazingly well and gets through his progressions at warp speed.

He not only completed 32 of 46, but there were at least 3 or 4 balls amongst the incompletes that were somewhere between drops and catchable.

If DeVito could play in the NFL, how can this kid miss ???

I love the way McCord looks off the defense on almost every passing play.

 

[IthacaMatt]

We have to make the ACC championship game for him to have a chance.

Then so it shall be.

Glad to see that today. It was a concern for me, as I didn't see him do it that much last week.

That Dime he dropped on the second TD to Pena was just wow…

Listen I love the guy and am so pumped, the attitude is awesome… but Eric had swagger in spades too, probably more

Kyle and Eric are very similar in their attitudes and desire to win. And I love them both.

Eric was one of my favorite players ever but the throwing ability backs up the swagger in a completely different way. Good call though on Eric and the original post may have been influenced by 4-6 Hayburners haha

Ha all good, Eric has got to be my all time favorite Orange from my era, so had to chime in

Yeah, the offensive line does a good job in pass protection. Kyle's not taking many hits.

He gets rid of the ball, after devito and Schrader, it's so refreshing. Very smart QB

He seems to process his options really quickly and makes sound choices.

His head is on a swivel. We've never had this good a passer before. Never.

I don't understand how the GT QB can have a higher QB rating (92.4) than McCord (82.4)? What subjective criteria is this based on?

So it is written, so let it be done.

My wife and I went to the mall after the game because it’s my sons 2nd birthday Monday so wanted to do the build a bear thing where you pay their age.

While waiting for Cheesecake Factory takeout a family wearing all Ohio St stuff walked by, I said “thanks for the qb!!” They looked at me puzzled and then said “oh yeah, good luck with him” and kinda rolled their eyes.

I said well he threw for almost 400 yards today and they just walked off.

Sad they can’t appreciate how good this kid is

Do the rushing TDs and yards factor in?

I'm not sure what rating you're looking at. The standard NCAA passer rating was 170something

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Hey Kyle, do you know that guys like Daniel Jones make almost $40M a year?

Jones has never had an O-line this good or this many receivers.

 

[Qbobby]

Kind of rude for Maria Taylor to say "Oh, come on" after Joshua Perry jokingly said "give him the Heisman" after Nicole Auerbach said "second straight week of 4 TDs for McCord. Did you know he didn't have a single game with 4 last year?" I mean I know he's still a really longshot to win it and it's only two games in but it's kind of disrespectful to just blow it off like he has no chance if he keeps playing like this.

Taylor Tannenbaum >>> Maria Taylor

I’ve had end zone seats for years. One of the great things is to be able to watch the qb make throws.

DeVito and Shrader threw to receivers. McCord throws to spots waaay more often…especially the outs.

McCord’s throws on the far side outs are great. But the two throws that stood out today for me was the third down deep ball off his back foot to Peña who made a diving grab, and the over the middle throw to OG that he dropped over the backer in front of the safety - that window was about the size of 3 footballs. Absolutely sick throws.

Noticed that myself, less yards, 3 less TD's, less yards per catch. The only thing he was better at was completion percentage, because most of his passes were short to the sideline.

 

[DPCuse]

I’m hoping McCord is the football programs Carmelo Anthony.
