    If they were expecting an Andrew Luck performance, the critism is justified.

    what about expecting a #1 overall pick performance?

    Bucky Brooks was simply expecting to see a QB play closer to his season's TD/INT ratio...

    Not sure. Left the door open though. As the NFL article said- far from a finished product. I like his upside. If we could get Garrett\Allen and Mitch, I'd be very happy. Don't even know yet if he'll declare or not, and if he does, the combine awaits. If he's in the draft, I can't see him falling out of the top 5. Of those teams, only the Jags might not be interested in a QB upgrade.

    Have no fear..... Soon he will put on a pair of shorts and pull over a lycra tank top and dazzle everyone in attendance with his rocket arm and laser like precision - and if we're lucky, he may even run around the little orange cones really fast, which will further cement his #1 overall status.

    Why? Because he's a homie?

    Zombo

    I have explained this. Because he is better than anyone that has come out in two years....and perhaps anyone that will come out in the next couple of years.

    And because you said it: the Browns need to quit fucking around and get a real QB. And this guy can be a real QB. Is he perfect? No....But then, since like 1970 there have been maybe10-12 better prospects that have come out better than him.

    Bradshaw, Elway, Bernie, Vinny, Peyton, Aikman, Newton, Luck, Winston

    He is a better prospect than the likes of Jeff George, Vick, Plunket, Stafford, Palmer, Smith, Couch, Bartkowski and a number of others.

    No.

    Just no.

    He could do the combine with a bucket on his head. We are only concerned that he is local!

    That would be Cam but he player JuCo so not sure if that counts or not.

    The other two with only 1 year of experience off the top of my head are Akili Smith and Mark Sanchez.

    Cam was only a 1 year starter. But he's also a freak of nature. Sanchez played more than one season.

    Looks like the illustrious John David Booty played a majority of the 07 season.

    So Sanchez started one full year.

    If they played 13 games and Sanchez played in 8, that would be the majority of the season would it not. Seeing as how 8 is more than 5?

    However...the point stays the same.....a one year college starter is a huge red flag for me.

    After watching the Clemson game, it showed me that Trubisky is leaps and bounds better than Watson. Fuck the stat lines. Even though Carolina lost, that last drive gave me the feeling that with Trubisky, your team will always be in the game. The only QB we've had that gave me that feeling since '99 was Brian Hoyer a couple years ago when he had like 3-4 game winning drives. However, Trubisky has way better intangibles than Hoyer. If we go QB #1, it better be Mitch.

    But what the fuck do I know

    Good point! It's possible for a really good QB to play on a mediocre college team. For example, I think Jim Kelly was something like 7-4 or 7-5 in his last year at Miami.

    Trubisky's line didn't pass pro well at all in the 2 games I watched vrs NC State & Stanford. Both times that got compounded by multiple drops. The last time NC had the ball vrs Stanford, he drove his team for a TD. Unfortunately, they missed the 2 point conversion that would have tied the game.

    One of my favorite QBs (Brian Sipe) was really good at making me forget his bad days with the magic he made in the last 2 minutes when his margin of error was down to zero and anything less than poised and precise meant no dice. I saw some similar last drive magic from Trubisky that lesser QBs wouldn't have been able to do. Keep in mind, it took the poor guy 2 accurate throws in the end zone to get that 1 TD. Another nice throw to Switzer at the goal line got batted down by a DB at the last second.

    He has some goodies for the right team to work with. I'm just not sure that's us. Until we make this an easier place to play QB, I have a bad feeling Trubisky would just be another name on a t-shirt we're not proud of. The Jimmy G idea seems like a better fit for us.

    We did the one-year starter thing a week or so ago. Cam was the only "solid" example albeit with an asterisk due to the JUCO year.

    Any QB can have an "off game". It's the reasons he had one that have to be examined.

    But will he wear a helmet?
