"What makes you think you are ready?"

"Coach Weiss says so"

Really? Good lord.

Then he throws his receiver under the bus in the next question.

Also, watch his body language. He looks like a highschooler interviewing for a mcdonalds job. Can't sit still, poor posture, figity.

This guy has all the physical tools, but has a ton of growing up to do. A senior year would have done him well me thinks.

I was under the same impression during the original thread that it got brought up. I just really didn't like how he carried himself in the interview.

If he puts up the types of numbers he did his junior year at ND then for all I care he could have pooped in his hand, thrown his feces at gruden, then asked him to watch a marathon of Twilight movies and gotten matching tattoos of a nude, reclining Delhomme in a silk robe on their chests.

does he have a party reputation? Could be Kerry Collins v.2.0

Comes across as the anti-The Golden Calf of Bristol(and anti-Delhomme) almost

have to give him a chance though, could turn out to be a steal.

Anything anti-The Golden Calf of Bristol is ok in my book.

"I am a virgin and I dont believe in abortion. I am a warrior of God and I have a huge head."

I am a Christian myself, but damn The Golden Calf of Bristol. Chill out, live a little. You stuck up douche. Denver screwed themselves royally on the pick. Glad they passed on Clausen in hinds sight though.

I love how a persons beliefs are reason to attack them.

When Gruden started to tell him where he was screwing up he picked up a pen and took notes.

He's still a kid, and he's going to do and say stupid things. All of them do, even Manning (who's NEVER thrown a teammate under the bus, right?). But if he can learn and grow, and if he turns into the gym rat and film geek he suggested he wants to be, then we got a steal.

Moore is going to play well in 2010, I believe that. And maybe in 2011 as well. I sure hope he does. And I hope Clausen develops at the same time. Getting great play out of the QB position along with possible picks for the other guy someday would be great for all of us.

I'm really excited by the possibility. :)

    • Do you honestly believe this is a team that will even be in contention for a playoff spot this year? To me, if you're not at minimum a genuine playoff caliber team, every win you get is a meaningless win in the end.  This is the NFL, it's not peewee league where you just want to win a few games and have fun, you want to get into the playoffs and have a shot at making a SB run. We haven't had a winning season in how many years?   Does "enjoying" a small handful of wins every year really make for an enjoyable season for you? I said it months ago and I'll say it forever, I don't care about winning or losing this year, as we don't have a playoff caliber roster yet and I'm a realist about where we are as a franchise.  I'd enjoy watching the games so much more if the team and Bryce in particular were just showing marked improvement, even if it came in losses.   Because THAT would give me hope for the future of the franchise and the direction we're going. Bryce was complete garbage in Week 1, in Week 2 he was terrible until the Cardinals went into super soft prevent defense and then collapsed gain when the game was in reach, and he was a serviceable game manager today, but didn't make any throws that any college QB couldn't make. This game was a perfect chance to let Bryce go out there and play loose because of the lead, just let him be himself and see if it sparks his college self.  But instead, we went unbelievably conservative with the play calling to help ensure the win, when actual wins and losses are the least of our worries this year, it's figuring out what Bryce can be (fans may be decided, but the team obviously has not yet).
    • Pretty fair assessment overall. I can’t say a lot since I didn’t watch but going by the comments I am betting he (Canales) was very conservative and a large reason would be to prevent Bryce giving it away half the day.
