Re: Bradford/Clausen now split among Mock Drafts
I find myself torn on JC. I mean I look at the poor line play and I see a guy who was able to get an 86.4 rating despite pressure being constantly in his face. Then I see the guy who couldn't put up over 200 yards passing against the Giants on 28 pass attempts but Todd Collins gets 57 yards in 4 attempts (by the way might not be the worse idea to keep Collins instead of Colt).
How much of the yardage was garbage yardage from teams playing prevent after building a great lead on our bend don't break defense? Do you guys have THAT MUCH FAITH in JC, or are you truly scared of the prospect of a rookie QB. I mean what if we get similar results next year? Are you guys going to look at the rookie QB class and say "no, next years will be stronger, yeah definitely not this one."
Either way I don't care if it's Bradrod, Clausen, or even McCoy. We need a plan B. This is a very good QB class and I'd rather get a one year jump on a young QB while we're rebuilding rather then making sure the line is absolutley Madden perfect before we even consider going through the growing pains of adding a rookie QB.
And on a slightly seperate note: Do not, I repeat DO NOT, tell me that when Matt Ryan came into the Falcons as a rookie that they had their line situated. Their line was actually just as bad as ours giving up 47 sacks in 2007 and the only real addition was Sam Baker who started a grand total of 5 games.
I've seen this argument on ES as a way to discourage people for calling for a rookie QB and while thats just fine and dandy over there I will not tolerate it over here. It's also fine if you don't want us to draft a QB,there's no right or wrong answer at this point and there are strong points for both sides, I myself frequently find myself torn between my love for the line and my knowing the importance of the QB position but for the love of God please stick to the facts.
Cabin Fever FTW (you guys aren't the only ones snowed in)
