Official Petition to Play Armanti Edwards


Numen

Recommended Posts

We need an official petition on the huddle to have members have a minimum of 50 posts before starting threads.

May I ask what I have done to offend you so much?

Have I yet to reply in any sort of negative manner such as yourself and the other over 1,000 posts users?

I ask this in sincerity good sir.

It is very hard for me to take D-II AND College stats seriously in the same situation. Besides, looking at his interception numbers...I had immediate flashbacks of Jake Delhomme (circa 2009).

You mean Football Championship Subdivision formerly known as Div 1-AA.

Lets take a look at some NFL Players out of the Div 1-AA or FCS and lower divisions.

Brian Westbrook - Villanova

Marques Colston - Hofstra

Kurt Warner - Northern Iowa

Joe Flacco - Delaware

Donald Driver - Alcorn State

Darren Sharper - William and Mary

Tim Hightower - Richmond

Tony Romo - Eastern Illinois

Terrell Owens - Tennessee at Chattanooga

Visanthe Shiancoe - Morgan State

Jeremiah Trotter - Stephen F. Austin

Vincent Jackson - Northern Colorado

Jared Allen- Idaho State

Jerry Rice - Miss Valley State

Walter Payton - Jackson State

Agreed thats a very exceptional list.

And 14,000+ Total Yards in a career doesn't stand out to you? Thats great on ANY level.

It's a silly petition, that's why. I'd rather sign off on a petition to get rid of the chicken scratch "Carolina" is written in, in the end zone.

And I agree, it is a silly petition. One I'm hoping will get enough signatures to get on the news of some sort. Maybe a headline in the paper, hell I don't care. I just want to see the kid play, so I made a petition. This probably wasn't the best place to post it if I wanted to get into a detailed discussion with senior members on the forums as to why this is such a ridiculous petition. But what else is there for me to enjoy about this season?

By the way, I absolutely love your mint berry crunch signature. Great Episode.

It took 6 months to get the logos on the field....just sayin'. Plus as has been pointed out Edwards is a receiver now, not a QB.

I know he is listed at WR. He is a project at that position though, which will take some fine tuning and probably another year to adapt. He has experience at QB, and the reason why they haven't played him at that position yet is because in college he ran the Spread Offense and that is no possibility in the NFL. I would like to see Carolina try it one day, hell with all the speed we have now we should play a game in the Spread, try it out in my opinion.

"I think you'd prefer to leave him at wide receiver because that's where he's been practicing," head coach John Fox said. "What kind of plays he would have, I can't really answer yet. I'm not sure he's even taken a snap from under center. ... We'll experiment. We'll look at it. Whether or not that's the route we'll go, I honestly can't answer that."

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
