I don't like comparing QB's, they all have different circumstances to consider. It's not as easy to say, well one guy is doing well, so why can't another?
Pennington sat for a few years before he played. Carr and Harrington have both had the committment of their organizations as the franchise guy right from the start.
Ramsey held out his rookie year, was thrust into the lineup prematurely and was in a flawed system. He only has 16 career starts, it's way too early to draw any hardline conclusions about him in my opinion.
The one thing about the QB's you mentioned all have in common is they've had the benefit of learning and developing in one system. They've all had time to learn their systems, Ramsey is starting out fresh in his 2nd system, a system that is radically different than the one he was in the last 2 years.
I believe Ramsey is still a large part of Gibbs' plan for this team, or else he would have looked to deal him away this offseason when he had the chance.
