Josh McCown vs Derek Anderson


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

McCown played pretty well last night in relief of an injured Jay Cutler.

Smitty made reference to him on radio yesterday as well, pointing out to the guys on The Drive that "White Chocolate" would be starting.

So, if you had a choice at backup QB next season, would you want to stick with Derek Anderson or would you be interested in giving Drago another shot?

 

Yep, he was impressive. Then again, both teams were playing with back-up QBs. Don't know if he played better because the other QB wasn't that great or that he is good. But the guy have some serious mobility in him. I was impressed.

How many teams have a former Pro Bowler as their backup?  Michael Vick doesn't count.  Would you rather have Matt Moore as the backup?  I'd rather have Anderson.  Even if it was only for one season, he did lead a team to a winning record.  McCown has never done that.  Most backups in the league haven't done that.  Just good to have a guy that has the experience to step in and win on a long term basis because you never know when the injury bug will bite.  Just look around the league...we won't escape it forever.

    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.  
    • For our pics and trades tonight and tmrw.  Remember, Aho was a 2nd rounder and Slavin was a 4th rounder. 
    • Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
