bradfords a #1 overall pick he has 3 years to show his talents he'll be in year 3 people around the league believe that he hasn't had the talents or the fair judgement being that the team he was on was awful. You put Peyton Manning or Tom Brady on that team their still not much better. No WR's, no defense, awful OL.


McCoy on the other hand has a great OL, and solid defense. His WR core could be better. His RB situation wasn't as good this year with Hillis being often injured. McCoy wasn't a high draft pick so therefore he isn't given as much time as Bradford.

A dink and dunker who completed 53%.

With the WR's he had, any QB would have been a dink and dunker on that team. I'm pretty sure the Rams lead the league in dropped passes too. There is a large majority of the league who views Bradford as a great QB who hasn't had a great team around him.

I'm not criticizing Bradford for going underneath a lot: Peyton Manning won a super bowl doing exactly that after years of watching Harrison and Wayne not ever beat their coverage in the playoffs. What Peyton didn't do was complete 53% of his passes.

At 64%+, Bradford is an intelligent, gritty winner. Below 58%, he's a bust. I suspect he'll be in between those figures next year.

Classic messed up thread title.

The subject of the thread already is being discussed elsewhere.

I don't think draft status is meaningful in regards to the comparison between McCoy and Bradford.
Coaches look at the bottom line, they look at production.
They're only gonna keep a QB because they think he can be the guy.
A coach isn't going to keep a QB only because he's a 1st round draft pick, especially a coach from a new regime.

I think the only real difference between the 2 is your perception.
There are smaller differences that I'm not going to quibble over but suffice it to say that neither QB has played under ideal circumstances.

Career:
Sam Bradford
57.6 5676 24 TD 21 INT 6.0 YPA 74.2 rating
Colt McCoy
58.4 4309 20 TD 20 INT 6.3 YPA 74.5 rating
