This wideout has game breaking speed but he consistently fails to catch passes which have been knocked down at the line of scrimmage.

My friend bet me he could make a 35 yarder (having never kicked before) in less tries than I could make a half court shot. I went and tried to kick some and couldn't even get the ball to go in the air. He is toast. Another friend was one of the sickest soccer players in the state in high school and he might have made one (we couldn't tell if it would have been good) in roughly 40 tries. I told him I'd let him try to kick the ball 3 times and he could buyout for half the bet right there, which is what he should do because there is no way he will win.

The flip side of that story is my cousin who could in high school hit 7/10 40 yarders and was over fifty percent on fifty yarders and absolutely perfect on ranges lower than 35, no matter the hash mark. Unfortunately, he played for a coach who absolutely believed in going for it. He spent his entire high school career booming kickoffs into the endzone and nailing XP's 100% and never once kicked a field goal in a game. He was so disgusted by football when the one or two college scouts came around he wasn't even remotely interested. Fun part is that if he had played at Arkansas, where he wound up going to school, his last two years would have covered for Tejada's abysmally un-clutch first two years.

quote:I love Wes Welker as a player, but he is not an elite wide receiver. I never look at him and think he can take it to the house on any play, especially when far away from the endzone. Elite wide receivers should be able to generate that threat. That is where elite pay comes into play. The real threat of scoring long yardage touchdowns is what elite wide receivers need to bring to the table. Welker has never scored over 9 touchdowns in a season.

Of course it has absolutely nothing to do with his point and the sentence itself is insane, but I liked being reminded of Larry. Who resembles Wes Welker about as much as any other fullback who ever played the game.

Where in any of my posts did I say Cam was top ten? Lets be real here Romo has been a starting QB in this league since 2006 and has had top talent around him from the get go, and yet he has ONE playoff win. The guy has done absolutely nothing, when the games matter. The guy will never take that team anywhere because he doesn't have it in him. You can have great stats and regular season wins, but they don't mean jack poo poo if you can't win the ones that count. If you are going to compare the two you should use their first seasons. Don't compare a valueless six year career to a record breaking rookie...in the end neither have a ring, but if I had to put money on which one would get their first give me the rook. When the smoke clears Romo will still be a choke artist with no ring and if he doesn't do something soon he'll have a new team.

I don't. At this point, Schaub and Ryan both are. It's irrelevant that Cam's ceiling is monumental. I'm reserving judgement until Cam can do it two years in a row. I'd also like to see him improve on his passing a lot.

FizFashizzle posted:Matt Schaub is crazy good. Good but not as multifaceted as Cam. Has subpar arm strength and is not a running threat at all. Can scramble okay and is fairly accurate and makes good decisions. Not an exceptional game manager. I am still very thankful for having Schaub but he's not an elite talent, just Good NFL starter talent.

I've read it all... This is from a Jets fan who posts constantly on FinHeaven. First he says this nyjunc;1064320690 posted:I don't make excuses, I state facts. I bashed him for his poor play to end 2011, I priased him for his excellent play in postseason and his good season for a rookie in '09 and good season overall in '10. If he sucks this year i'll say so, when he has a good year I'll applaud. He said "Sanchez is by far the best QB in the AFC East behind Brady, Moore + Fitzpatrick are garbage time QBs who score without pressure. Anyone saying otherwise is just giving a bad opinion." This was his response to someone saying that he's just giving an opinion on Sanchez. Someone made a joke about him being sensitive because the Jets are the little brother to the Giants. We got this gem. nyjunc;1064320732 posted:yeah, matt Moore had tremendous pressure to win which is why when he hd a chance to save their season he flopped but when the season was over he performed EXACTLY like he did in Carolina. And the finale... when someone said "Team success does not equal elite for Sanchez, look at Trent Dilfer" and we got this bad boy nyjunc;1064320982 posted:what about him? he was an underrated QB, notice how many SBs Baltimore has been to since Trent? You heard it here, folks.

Seems like a pretty fair assessment to me. I heard just yesterday that AJ Smith was on the phone with Tannenbaum offering Rivers + conditional draft picks for a proven playoff QB who won't crap the bed.
