Okay I wouldn't post this article but there is some good quotes from other players, etc plus Smitty's comments again. And if it is already on here just merge it or delete this thread.

"He's something special," said Falcons linebacker Curtis Lofton. "He can do things most quarterbacks can't do. He's a very accurate passer, too. He's a true dual threat quarterback. I knew watching him in college that he'd be pretty successful in this league. He's pretty special."

Added Falcons safety William Moore: "He's like playing a D-lineman. It's like a D-end at quarterback. Then he's so fast. The last time we played, I gotta chance to get him down. But he doesn't go down with one hand. You've gotta gang tackle him. It's going to be important this week."

Oh yeah. And Rich Gannon can suck it!!! although he may be right :(

Kudos to Ron for standing up for his guy. As much as I love Cam though, I gotta admit that I'd vote Eli Manning in over him this year. If Cam played in the AFC, he'd be 2nd in line behind Brady.

Guess you haven't heard about The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Yea I won't be disappointed if Eli wins, it's better than some bullpoo like Romo. Eli is nasty in the fact he never gives up, always a full 60 minute game with him and he has a knack for rattling some great teams. Still Cam going would really be awesome especially if he gets to throw to smitty. Do third string Probowl QBs even get to play though? Last pro bowl I watched was a couple years ago.

The Golden Calf of Bristol will win the population contest by a mile.

      Dan Morgan on Rich Eisen show

      I’ve turned from a staunch detractor to him now having my 100% support. 1. He turned the worst o line in the league in to a top 10 unit in 1 offseason. Incredible.  2. Contracts to Horn and Hubbard. Reward your ride or die homegrown talent. Neither contract was way out of line for market value.  3. All of the talent he has added are intelligent, high floor types who love competing.  4. He understands that an org lives and dies off of the draft. This was the very first draft that I can remember since… ever where the franchise didn’t make a boneheaded trade and/or waste a high pick on a project tweener. No. It was Tepper sitting by almost completely mum, watching Dan orchestrate Dan’s draft…. picking intelligent high floor dudes from big name schools who showed up to play every Saturday and loved competing. It just felt right.  5. He has shown no reservation in cutting bait on guys that he sees as not having what it takes. This is really big one. It’s what the good teams do. Without it, you get the ‘coach’s guys’. Complacency. Stagnation. All these dudes needs to watch their backs.  I see him building a young core who have displayed NFL level ability. For the first time in a really long time it feels like the captain of the ship actually knows what he is doing.

      Jake Guentzel was a pretty elite  player and he fit us very well. And we’ve only had two offensive elite forwards under Rod. That’s Jake and Miko. Sample size is pretty small and I feel like your arguments biased. We are going to get an elite player or two In the off-season, we can be the judge of that this time next year.

      Canales Addresses CB position

      Defense is overall bottom 5 without a doubt.  We literally do no have any depth on any position for the defense.  We are once again a couple of injuries away from being complete garbage again.   I assume next draft will be defense heavy.
