Mr. Scot

Joseph Addai, that's it. And wouldn't I have to remember the name to compare it?

Reminds me of another guy whose name escapes me. He was drafted by the Colts the same year we picked DeAngelo Williams. As I recall, some folks thought that we should have drafted him instead. Turned out we made the right choice. I don't think he lasted very long in the league. Remind me, who am I thinking of?

Plus the drug concerns. He honestly seems like kind of a flake.

You'd think he'd have to be. A sub 230 DE would be ridiculous.

The rookie wall is a very real thing.

Bits and pieces from around the league... PFT reporting that DE Randy Gregory, who weighed only 235 at the combine, showed up for an individual team workout now weighing under 230.

And to be perfectly honest, probably a valid point.

I'm sure everyone else sees an eagle in that graphic. I see a parrot.

Reasonable.

Same reason as ESPN. Controversy gets ratings.

Don't remember. I know there was a story that he supposedly tanked a workout with another team, but I never bought that.

If that's all it was, no big deal, but the linked article (a source I've frankly never heard of) didn't give a reason. They just said he "refused". If you've got a source with different info, you should link it.

Nobody I know with any real football knowledge does, regardless of religious beliefs.

Seriously doubt it, dude. And while I hate the Cowboys as much as anyone, I have to say a prospect refusing to meet with any team that's interested in him would be a huge red flag for me.

As a person, sure. As a football player, the only Christian friend I know who thinks he's a good quarterback is a lady who just watches football for eye candy like him and Luke.

I've heard that before

I think that's his future.

Tim Teb0w being with the Patriots was like Jesus playing for Satan.

Your prior post does say "agnostic atheist".

When you've got agreement between an 'agnostic atheist' and a conservative Christian, I'd say there's a pretty solid argument in place.

I'm a conservative Christian, and I don't buy that idea.

Appropriately enough... Twenty-five years ago Sunday the Colts moved up to get Jeff George

I'm not seeing any hate for him or anything he did prior to the pros. He's just not good enough to be an NFL QB. No hate is needed to say that; just a decent understanding of pro football and a working set of eyes.

I have. I've never been a quarterback coach and I'd certainly never claim to be a quarterback guru. But a few years ago a friend of mine told me about his nephew. He'd been the QB for his middle school team and was moving up to high school, and after a few weeks of practice, the high school coach was beginning to hint that he might be best served to change positions. The kid really wanted to play QB, so my friend - knowing me to be a football fanatic - asked if I could help. I told him I'd do anything I could. So I got together with my friend, the kid and another friend's kid and gave him some tips on mechanics. About a month later, my friend told me the kid got to stay a quarterback. The following year, he won the starting job. I actually got to see him play later that year (just once) and he looked pretty good. So I said all that just to say this... I would credit that kid with having better passing mechanics than Tim Teb0w, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that.

I have no hate for him whatsoever. By all accounts he's a great guy. He's just a terrible quarterback.
