I don't think Jones is garbage, I just think he has some serious physical talent deficiencies. In terms of physical tools, I don't think he's a bit more talented than Teddy.

He is actually less talented than Teddy, IMO.

If we are rolling with Teddy and Jones, I guess I will quit at least after 1st game

For me it means nothing at this point. I'll need something to judge or a trend to know one way or the other.

Athletically, 100% agreed.  I think Jones' ceiling is very low.  'Bama QBs flourish in college because of the 4 & 5 star talent all around them.  Heck, look at Tua.  Before his injury looked like the best thing since sliced bread.  He went to Miami with mixed results, at best, and I don't think it anything to do with lingering affects of his past injuries at 'Bama.

I wouldn't argue against it. Arm talent is about the same IMO and Teddy definitely has the mobility advantage.

Yeah, that's a bullsh-t take from Chris Simms.

Stafford had other destinations he liked better, but he would have come here.

Lol. According to?

[Mr. Scot]

Just for fun, a reminder of something David Tepper said about why he liked Matt Rhule...

"He dresses like (bleep) and sweats all over himself. He dresses like me, so I have to love the guy."

I don't think he's commented on Scott Fitterer's fashion sense yet

I would disagree with that. Tua looks line a shadow of his former self IMO.

Albert Breer and Peter King, among others.

Plenty of people have reported on the story. Simms is the only one to say this. And it's not like PFT is known for complete accuracy in their reporting.

So is it the injuries or the fact that he's not on the gravy train at 'Bama anymore?  I'd say the later.

I'm talking about just what I've seen from him physically. He's not the same athlete he was before. He's said so himself.

In a similar vein...

Call me crazy, but I kind of think using your first round pick on someone other than a guy who became your third string quarterback might have improved things just a little.

The fact he said he has no regrets should be enough to fire the guy for doing a terrible job.
