A few notes on Ramsey:

He had a better TD to INT ratio than Peyton Manning did in his 16 games as a starter. He had 23 TD's and 17 picks. Try to keep in mind also, that I know Ramsey threw 2 INT's on Hail Maries because we didn't have a quarterback with an arm other than him.

For all the haters:

Keep in mind that Patrick Ramsey is one of very few quarterbacks who managed to throw more Touchdowns in his first year as a starter. Has he taken a step back? I don't necessarily think so. He's been put into bad situations. When they brought him in yesterday, I thought it was a bad position to put the kid in. Down 17, obviously he's not going to win it. It will just shake his already fragile confidence. However, he did get going and come up with a TD to at least make it respectable. Moving on...I want everyone to remember that Ramsey may not have "played well," but you saw him take the hits. Also, the Skins didn't just have no running game last year. They had a starting Running Back who wasn't a day over 27, that is no longer in the league because he is so bad. Ramsey will learn to make less mistakes. This game is still relatively new to him. Keep in mind next week against Philly is just his 17th NFL start. The season is lost unless they win out, he should get the same leash Brunell got...half the season. Let's see what he can do and let's just see if he's the QB of the future.

I, for one, think that he is and believe he has better physical talent than Joey Harrington. The difference? Harrington got handed the job and get this...left alone. They let him struggle, they let him learn, now they're not too bad, most young quarterbacks just get, so be patient.
