I know, another Jake thread. But this one isn't about money or hate.

If Jake is the starter, he would have to go back to QB 101. He doesn't have his safety net - just throw it up and let Steve catch it. He would have to make plays himself. It could be a good thing for him.

You make it sound as if Steve is some sort of god. You realize almost every single one of his picks this last season and in the Arizona playoff game came trying to get it to Steve.

nah not really.

Jake has shown plenty of times in his career that he's a perfectly acceptable QB without Steve Smith. I always thought Jake was better when Smith wasn't on the field.

Against the Falcons twice and cardinals last year Jake showed he can still be at least replacement level, so he'll be an upgrade at QB if he can just fix his head.

That's the point I was trying to make. His safety net was Steve, but if Steve couldn't make a play, it was usually INT. Maybe I shoulda said "just throw it up and hope Steve catches it".

My bad. I thought you were saying Jake only got good numbers because he'd randomly throw it up and Steve would always make the play. I got it now. :thumbsup:

no he didn't shut up kill yourself

i hate you because you are classless but yes i was mistaken he posted his

career highs in completions touchdowns and total yards in 2004 without steve smith. that is a fact. it was moose who went to the pro bowl that year. this actually makes the argument stronger as it was his best quarterbacking year in terms of statistics. so thanks fiz

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
