New Spew Thread About Colt Mccoy
-
wait a minute. so you're saying bradford is a bust? their whole team has lacked (except at RB) talent ala the browns. their OL is terrible.
boy how soon you guys forget. wasn't he the one everyone was clamoring for sorta like luck and RGIII this year? i guess no one can evaluate talent in the NFL.

Maybe Brandon Weeden will be much superior to Colt...he will need to be, because if they have another do nothing offense, then who will get the blame? A rookie QB/RB or the coach/GM/Pres.
Brandon Weeden has a lot going for him that Colt did not:o Trent Richardson 'nuff said
o Brad Childress as OC instead of Pat Shurmur
o Mitchell Schwartz
o Josh Gordon

Lol....3 of those poibts are rookies....the other has only ever called plays one year of his career. Shurmur is more senior in that regard.
lol, i'm scratching my head as to what your point is....because the players I mentioned are rookies they can't help the Browns offense?Lol....3 of those poibts are rookies....the other has only ever called plays one year of his career. Shurmur is more senior in that regard.
Your second point is flat out incorrect.
Brad Childress has not only called plays for more then 1 season he has more experience in coaching (even as a HC) then Pat Shurmur.
Get your facts straight.

is it really necessary to pull the articles to prove a point you should already know? its not like its little known secret in the NFL that chilly didn't call plays in philly...
ok...first of all....chilly is just a pair of eyes in the box. notice how shaw says he didn't call plays in philly?

second, a little blurb about only calling plays in his rookie year.
ill post it so you can read it...very, very slowly.
Childress called the Vikings’ plays in 2006 before assigning those responsibilities to offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, who’s now with the Seattle Seahawks. Although Bevell assumed play-calling duties for the remainder of Childress’ tenure with the Vikings, Childress was heavily involved with the offense.
so what was that again you said about facts? are these "facts" supposed to be open for interpretation, or merely statements that one feels are correct even though they've done no research on the subject?
im trying not to be a dick, but try reading up before getting all contentious. these results were all from the first page of a google search....seems you dont know what you think you know.
wrt 3 rookies being weedens benefit? lets just say colt had a bunch of rookies too....and he sucked. point being, you dont depend on rookies. you hope....but it seems many are expecting things from these kids before even stepping on the field. cart before the horse, methinks.

I don't know what anyone else was saying, but I am saying that having watched Bradford and McCoy in college for the years they played I saw very little if any difference in their capability as a QB. And I think the answer is: they both may be capable of playing/even starting in the NFL, but I saw nothing that would say these guys are extra special and will become stars in the pros.
By the way, the same can be said about Matt Barkley of USC. Overhyped merely because he plays at USC. How well have those USC QBs done lately? Palmer had a few good years, but has been mediocre for longer. Leinert a backup at best. Sanchez....mediocre.
Honest, USC pales in comparison to either Cal or Stanford at producing NFL QBs.

didn't they (NFL gurus) used to think the pac 12 produced the best QBs?
i know in your other post you listed the number of starting QBs in the NFL and it did show them at the top.
i couldn't tell you what QB from where will be this year's NCAA poster boy.

The Pac-10 does produce, still, some of the best QBs. See Andrew Luck.
As for this year's poster boy, as noted, they want to put Matt Barkley up there but I see him as poor man's Colt McCoy: good college QB, but his measurables are similar too or less than Colt's. Same height/weight, but Colt was faster and with a stronger arm...yep, a stronger arm. Who else might step up to be the QB poster boy of this college season? Some possibles:
Logan Thomas Va. Tech 6/6
Landry Jones Okla. 6/4
Tyler Wilson Ark. 6/3
Aaron Murray Georgia 6/1
EJ Manuel FSU 6/5
Tyler Bray Tenn. 6/6
Zac Dysert Miami, Oh. 6/4 (the new BR?)
Barkley is 6/2
A lot of these guys have good NFL QB height except Murray and Barkley. The ACC and SEC are well represented. Note: no Big 10 ers.

You know what?I deserve the condescension in your reply.
I did not know that Bevell called the plays for the Vikes after 2006.
Which completely changes my opinion of Childress a playcaller.
I was clearly wrong on that point, not to mention being a jack arse about it.
My point was Weeden will have weapons that Colt McCoy did not which is quite obvious.
Now whether they pan out is another story.
But clearly 1st round pick/2nd round picks are drafted to make an immediate impact.
Dude, we're talking about Trent Richardson here.
And Schwartz was a 2nd rounder IIRC and 2nd round OL are expected to make an immediate impact.

Hey....im all about a fresh young team....been waiting quite some time for it to actually happen. Its like a mantra, yet circumstances rarely allow it to come to fruition. On paper, we look much improved.....but lets see some hitting before we get our hopes up.
On chilly....strangely enough, i think hes well suited for his role. If he were the strong headed playcaller like you thought, it may develop into internal strife with patty cakes. Being that hes sat behind reid in title only, offering perspective and opinion, he could very well be a great set of eyes up in the booth to provide the aerial viewpoint. Patty cakes has another set of eyes, hopefully ones that help get this offense moving.
Answers abkund soon enough....
