Bring It 3,049 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 No threads on his game Fri. nite except most liked him over Yates.Me too.He's smart........like "Duke Smart".He varies his throw velocity, has confidence in placing the ball where he wants it, sometimes with incredible soft touch. Not many QB's do it quite this well.Hope they keep him on the 53.This guy has talent.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Renfree Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GTBF54 3,548 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Yates was brought in for true competition for #2 because Dom D was not cutting it......... We'll see soon enough who's better....... Personalty I think the are neck and neck............ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lowndesfalc 3,295 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 He comes highly recommended from David Cutcliffe. HC at Duke. He oughta know a good one when he see's em'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bawse 5,006 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 He looked better than Yates thats for sure Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kung-Pow 361 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I was impressed the times he stood tall and delivered from the pocket. Particularly the throw to Freeman and the out route on third down to get us back in FG range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Carl927 3,376 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yates was scrambling for his life half the time and still managed okay. Let's see Renfree under pressure before we crown him king, but he did look mighty good vs the threes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let's see Renfree under pressure before we crown him king, but he did look mighty good vs the threes.No, no one's crowning him Anything.I just like his instincts, his intelligence, his grasp of the game, his size. He just looks like a Solid No.2.I don't see him ever getting "rattled". Too confident. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
clownorg 10,487 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 He looked Better than Yates in that 1 game, but I really need to see more of him before I'd be confident in him as a back upHe's on the right track though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bertrain7 188 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yates was scrambling for his life half the time and still managed okay. Let's see Renfree under pressure before we crown him king, but he did look mighty good vs the threes.I agree yates had to deal with a little more pressure. But from what i saw part of it was because he was not progressing through reads and held onto it until that single reciever got open or he took off and ran. I think. All i know is to me he looked terrible regardless.. just my opinion though.I like how renfree looked too but i was hoping for a vet backup Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Herr Doktor 8,155 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Renfree wont last on the practice squad. He would be poached immediately. I always liked the pick. He has all the physical attributes you want in a prototypical QB. plus, he has football intelligence. He wont last on the practice squad. we are in a good position depth wise, and competition wise.

falcndave 4,880 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yates needs to learn to look away from an intended receiver occasionally. However, after a shaky start, he did okay. I need to see more. I feel better about backup QB after game one than I have since Matt Shaub was the backup. We have had zero for Matt's whole career. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bring It 3,049 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yes Renfree looked a little better than Yates but the competition is not over. And I guess Jeff Matthews is completely out of the running for the #2 job since he didn't even get any snaps.Who is Jeff Matthews ?? LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Herr Doktor 8,155 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That's a good thing! Renfree was drafted for the deuce position. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hammerhead 187 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'll hold judgment till I see more , Yates has his moments but his inconsistent play could make him expendable plus his contract . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tuggle'2 47,648 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I agree with this title. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
me4falcons 671 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Sometimes people see what they want to see. It looked even to me. (Actually Yates was a smidgen better)Yates 7 of 16 for 127 yards, 71.6 passer ratingRenfree 6 of 15 for 108 yards, 65.4 passer rating Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PokerSteve 27,851 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Too early to say who's better, but I like Renfree and hope he gets the back-up job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
