You know... I have to completely disagree with the curmudgeon...
Ramsey might be just an average QB in the NFL... but "substantially sub=par"?? Let's recap last 2 years where he played under Steve (every one blasts me because they don't REALLY know football) Spurrier's system... his numbers.. 296-564, 3705 yds, 23 TDs, 17 INTS, 53 passes of 20yds+ .... and 48 SACKS! Now... either Spurrier wasn't galastically stupid like everyone says or Ramsey is at LEAST and average NFL quarterback. I realize its been said before on this site a million times... but honestly, if you look back through NFL history at the best QBS of all-time... their numbers through 564 passes would be below these numbers. And again let me reiterrate that these are "Spurrier-coached" numbers which means he was getting beat up pretty regularly because of our "sub-par" offensive line... enough to make ANY young QB gun-shy. As far as today goes... he was VERY accurate on the short passes (watching him was like watching Joe Montana after having to sit through Brunell's ducks, even on short routes), he just has to get comfortable enough to where he doesnt feel like he has to force a ball in deep... he needs just a little more loft on those and let the reciever run under them... thats game-speed rust if u ask me... 53 passes over 20 yards the past 2 seasons proves that...
