Alex Tanney signed as backup QB

Isn't that what Weeden was famous for? Trick shots where he hit clay pigeons with a football. Do we really need another trick shot artist...or a quarterback?
Weeden wasn't famous for anything.
Weeden wasn't famous for anything.
Gipper is referencing the the Sports Science episode of Weeden prior to the draft. A lot of people made a lot of buzz about him hitting a clay pidgeon from 10 yards away traveling 45 mph, apparently meaning he has a "super accurate, cannon for an arm".
I think Weeden thinks he has to hit his receivers like he hit those clay pidgeons. Nothing less than 100 mph from 10 yards away will suffice.

We need a backup/soon to be starter for the rest of 2013 & why not try this kid? With all his college stats, only 30 career picks, extremely accurate (albeit D3 school). As opposed to 3TD, 10 picks Haney, Sure worth a look see & would surely draw at least SOME Fan interest.

"For the preseason, Tanney completed 40-of-73 passes for 423 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions"
Well. Meh.

Can he put a ball into the hands of a Rb coming out of the backfield..... BW3, like Derek ZooLanderson before him seems not to be able to do that.
Does the guy in the beginning of this video look like his face is getting sucked into the middle of his head by some type of vacuum?

I know what he was referring to. I was being facetious.
If I'm not mistaken, the Sports Science episode featuring him debuted after we drafted him, however.

First career trick shot.

Interesting. And odd. So many veterans out there and some interesting practice squad guys. Never would've guessed we'd go with this kid in a million years.

This may be one of those Mike Lombardi specials where he tries to show how much smarter he is than anyone by picking up people that no one ever heard of and hoping that he finds a diamond in the rough.
More often though, Lombardi just shows how much dumber he is than everyone else because all we get is the rough and none of the diamond.

Look at it this way...Caleb had already PROVEN he was Weeden Version 2 with 3 TDs & 10 interceptions. At least this kid is an unknown & at this point, THAT'S somewhat of a positive. LOL

His father was a coach, he's been in the spread offense since his sophomore year in high school, he has a loose arm with great mid range accuracy and had a 5-1 TD/INT ratio in college. Played at a smaller school and had great production all 4 years as a starter.
I can see the appeal. At the very least, he's careful with the football. That's all we need.
Runs a 4.96, however. And I thought Weeden was slow...

Not comparing the arm ability to Brady (because obviously they are in two totally different universes), but Tommy Boy ran a 5.0+ coming out of college. I'm not too concerned with his 40 time if he can actually throw the ball accurately and hit open receivers.

He's launching 50 yarders off of the goalpost. Just have Gordon run 50 yards and have this kid throw him jump balls. I guarantee our offense would be better.

I thought the same thing but who else is left? You can't deny that the video is impressive. But what other options beside bottom of the barrel washed up old timers or Tebow?

of course anyone can deny that video is impressive. I'm ONLY impressed if it's verified that was done with next no mulligans. And even then....why should I give a fuck? Seriously why should I give two flying fucks that this dude can do things with a football that will never translate onto an actual football game on Sunday? He was on the cowboys practice squad...know why? Cause he doesn't yet get the NFL game. He can throw a football with his dick I don't care...if he can't shift the coverage to pick up a blitzing Will or Sam, or he just can't seem to see those safeties creeping up underneath his routes....than I really really really don't give a fuck if he can bullseye my spread cheeks at 80 yds right dead square in my hole.
