The best thing too do for the QB position is still bring in a VET.

[PantherDude]

Those guys don't really exist

Colt McCoy will say otherwise with his praise for Jake helping him get better. :D

[pantherclaw]

Not any options that truly impress.

Let's talk farve out of retirement! (More realistic than brown trading palmer)

Bulger is trash.

Mcnabb would be the best option, but he probably wouldn't even end up here.

All other options would end up struggling to even win the starting job.

That sure would be some major improvement!

lets bring in a qb who hasnt been good since 03 LMAO.if thats the case we might as well bring JD back.

QB Vet/mentor = overrated

We pay QB coaches a poo ton of money to do their job of coaching up QBs. Plus like TRD said 9/10 of those guys just come in and do their own work. Most vets coild give a poo about a young QB.

You guys really don't understand the importance of veteran leadership and mentoring of young players.

After what we saw last season with no vet leadership, one would think that comprehending this is not as difficult as you are making it.

Came out of hiding huh? I knew you couldn't resist stalking my every post

Ha, well considering you make about 15% of all the posts on here, stalking is absolutely impossible.

With regards to whether or not I think Moore is better than anyone, sure. I don't think he's good enough to start a game. I'd pick him over dozens of QBs but I would feel pretty bad hearing his name coming out of the tunnel.

Jake still can't play at a high level. Try again please.

And to Madhatter, just because last season was shitty and we had no vet QB, doesn't mean the two are related. There injuries, coaching, youth in other positions, etc that played a role.

And I think you overstate the importance of these vets. Vets don't want to mentor anyone. They want to play football. As they should. They aren't going to hold some rookies hand and teach them how to take their job.

What would you think if your boss hired someone new, brought him to your desk, and said, "this is the new guy. For the next year I want you to train him. If you do a good enough job then hopefully I will be able to fire you next year?"

You would be pissed. NFL world is no different.

Hey guys seeing as how Moore looks no better now than he did his rookie season, and for most of that span we had the kind of guy you're thinking of in delhomme to be a mentor, do you really think it makes all the difference?

[frash.exe]

Also last year 3 of the 10 oldest teams made the playoffs while 3 of the 10 youngest teams made the playoffs, so aren't we overstating this "need a vet presence in almost every single area of this team" a little bit?

[frash.exe]

a big problem last year is you had the Blind leading blind in that QB room.

cuz I lead the blind the blind lead the blind

MY TIME

OUR TIME

[TheRealDeal]

Your need to post is overstated.

[frash.exe]

FWIW your oldest team last year was the redskins, so it really doesnt matter if you've got the most vets if your coaching staff sucks get ready to root against the nfc south in January again

People last year that were criticizing JR for cutting all of the vets on the team are now the same one's saying that vet leadership is over rated.

Geesh....talk about not getting it.
