Another thing, its kind of hard to pass the ball when you only run it a total of 17 yards through the 3rd. Miami fans give Henne too hard a time, IMO. He isn't as bad as people say, and is only in his 2nd season starting. You can't really compare him to the other two major QBs from his class (Flacco and Ryan), as both of those guys are total flukes as far as young QBs are concerned.

are you f'ng kidding me?? both of them are damn good QBs, they're not "elite" yet, but they are on the right path

 

[Harriet Tubman]

Yeah, thats what I said. I called them elite. Thats right...

No, wait, I didn't. I said, if you would like me to repeat the part YOU bolded, that they are "both of those guys are total flukes as far as young QBs are concerned."Take a look at most younger quarterbacks, and they are further along than most, which isn't something that most sane people can really argue....


But again, I did say "elite", so....yeah....

 

[Donut]

The way the announcers said that Thingpen is next in line they sound like they expect him to go down heh

 

[BlackLantern]

how are they, especially Matt Ryan, flukes though??

 

[Harriet Tubman]

how are they, especially Matt Ryan, flukes though??

How many QBs can be seen as a top 10-12 QB in the league in their 3rd season of starting? Also, consider where Atlanta was before Ryan got there. When Vick ruined that franchise (which he did for that time), Ryan totally brought it back image wise. That is a huge deal to place on one kid's shoulders. It wasn't just him that brought them back, but image wise, its all him.

Also, by saying "especially Matt Ryan", are you implying that you like Joe Flacco more than Ryan?

 

[BlackLantern]

I like both players....I might favor Matt Ryan a bit more because of the situation he ended up in, new head coach with Bobby Petrino sneaking off in the night, the whole Vick situation

my mistake, I thought you meant fluke in the negative way

 

[Hush]

They arent Flukes they are breakouts and just flat out talented. Saying they are a Fluke is kinda like saying where did the come from when they clearly had talent they have just surpassed expectations.

 

[BlackLantern]

again my mistake....I thought he was using it in the negative context

 

[Dr. Evil]

Gus Johnson gets too excited for the little plays.

Hey, Gus, this isn't Strikeforce MMA, cut the excitement down a bit.

David Carr
Tim Couch
Joey Harrington
Akili Smith
Ryan Leaf

All those guys were flat out talented. There is some luck involved in bringing a QB from a rookie with no experience to where these guys are at now and to ignore that is just silly.

 

[BlackLantern]

you DO NOT talk that way about Gus Johnson

 

[Kaiser]

Ryan os good but Flacco is terribly overrated.

 

[Mister J]

Fasano is out there destroying.

Thigpen... doesn't look all that bad.

 

[Genesis 1.0]

Kaiser: Hey now, let's not get bitter because your QB is a veteran fluke / choke artist.

Flacco's a damn good QB and he's got a long time to fully develop his game.

 

[Harriet Tubman]

Ryan os good but Flacco is terribly overrated.

I don't know about that. He is on pace for almost 4,000 yards, 27 TDs and only 12 INTs on a team that will get to the playoffs.

 

[Donut]

Chad Henne is only only Dolphins Quarterback today with no TD

 

[Genesis 1.0]

I don't know about that. He is on pace for almost 4,000 yards, 27 TDs and only 12 INTs on a team that will get to the playoffs.

Exactly.

Flacco's a stud and he's still developing.

 

[Harriet Tubman]

Chad Henne is only only Dolphins Quarterback today with no TD

No, Chad Pennington is.

 

[Immortalfire]

Jets and Browns are tied..omg

 

[Alex The Great]

Go Cleveland!

 

[Genesis 1.0]

Wait, does Randy Moss even have a reception today?

 

[BlackLantern]

f*** Cleveland...what is there to do in that godforsaken city?? drink beer, watch football, and cry

that's it

 

[Mister J]

Wait, does Randy Moss even have a reception today?

One. He just got it a couple of minutes ago when the Dolphins switched to soft prevent coverage.

4th and 20, down 12, last chance at even smelling a comeback... and he was on the bench.

Sorry *****.

 

[Genesis 1.0]

lol, come ON Browns.

1.) I don't like the Jets.

2.) BL does.

Let's go Cleavland.
