Brennan was our greatest quarterback from Hawaii in the Zorn era. He clearly deserves to put Peyton Manning on the bench. Y'all give him a break.

I'm secretly praying we take Bradford so we can finally dump "The Colt."

GusFrerotte · 03-09-2010, 09:33 PM

I don't think we even need Bradford or Clausen, Saden, to do that. If we get Lefevour, Brown, Kafka, Stull, Crompton, Snead, etc, I think Colt is doomed. I could see us also signing an undrafted QB also to be honest. There are over a dozen pro prospect college Qbs coming out in 2010, most from major conferences that faced tough opponents just about every week. Not all of them will be drafted, Some had bad combines like Canfield. I never heard how Joe Elliot's combine went either.

Pretty hard to "root" against Colt getting a change and having success. Evidently he's matured a great deal and working very hard. If he can breakout...fantastic.

GusFrerotte · 03-09-2010, 09:58 PM

I want Colt to do well. I rooted for him til it seemed like Chase Daniel showed more poise last season. If Colt can come through, more power to him.

I will....hard!!!

I say we sign Chris Simms and let our QB's for '10 be JC, Colt, and Simms. Then next year we get Locker. Save our later picks from getting a QB and get more OLineman or players for the 3-4.

If you notice one thing about Colt Brennan, it is his accuracy. I remember watching a few games with Colt playing and the announcers would always mention how accurate he was. Also, if you don't remember Colt won in the QB challenge for accuracy against guys like Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco. I remember seeing a video on the redmond blog of colt throwing the ball at the field goal post and was hitting it everytime from a pretty long distance.

He obviously has the accuracy, confidence, and leadership skills. Just wonder if he is good at treading defenses and making quick decisions.

R&S QB's -the good ones anyways-are usually pretty good at reading defenses. They look at the defense pre and post snap and have to quickly decide which of the 5 defensive categories that it falls in--Cover 0,2,3 man off,Quarters-, this will tell the QB what the wr's are going to do. The R&S is not a free for all where each wr is running to get open like some like to think. Each play a wr can have anywhere from 1 to 3-4 different breaks on his assigned route depending on how the coverage changes,there are even secondary routes that the wrs will switch to when the QB pump fakes. imo all of this would be difficult with 2 wr's, let alone 4. Bottomline,Colt did well in this offense because he is very accurate,can read defenses very well and he can improvise. His 70% completions rate is impressive no matter who you play at any level. And ill say it again, he did in 3 yrs what Chang did in 5. Im pulling for the guy,id like to see him get a shot so we can see for sure what he can do. If he tanks then cut him and ill admit i was wrong but i think the kid can play.

I would like if he produced, i don't want us to spend our 4th on a QB would rather trade down/back pick up more picks and go OL, OL fill in rest.

True, QB isnt the biggest issue right now but new HC's usually like to bring in their own guy to groom. We'll see.

Just for the record i'm a JC supporter but if we another QB on the roster that can unseat JC so be it i don't see it but so be it ( now say that three times fast).

Brennan is a goner. Grossman and now probably Bradford/Clausen only signals the inevitable. Kid was going to be Zorn's pet project. I guess Mike wants his own pet project.
