I wouldn't want that guy in a million years. I hate QBs that aren't cerebral passers first. The only QB with real wheels I ever would have wanted was Steve Young. Randall Cunningham would probably be the only other guy. The rest of those "dual threat" QBs usually only turn out to be single threats because they rely too much on their legs and wind up never developing any real accuracy or head for the game. Donovan McNabb started out as a dual threat, but he really hasn't run much the last few years because he became comfortable with the offense and knows what he's doing. I'll take a guy with an great accurate arm and a great brain over a guy with a cannon and great legs any day. I'd rather have Marino, Montana or Jim Kelly than Vince Young, Michael Vick, Kordell Stewart or Tavaris Jackson ANY day.
Meh, don't really see the point. We have Kellen Clemens. No need to sink more money into the same caliber quarterback. Ainge can be a 3. In a different situation, I'd say yes because Jackson still has talent, but we don't need a QB right now.
I'd pass. What's the point of bringing in a guy who's proved he can't play at the NFL level. Atleast the jury is still out on Sanchez and Ainge, and to an extent Clemens. Jackson has proven he can't even provide depth.
At least Ainge could possibly be decent. We already know Tavaris is awful. Wouldn't want him for free.
thank you for the first reply of the entire thread that wasnt based on stupidity or trash talk. and it makes more sense than any of them. including the ainge is better than him posts.
We already have Brad Smith, and they probably both play QB just as well. Jackson sucks a kangaroo nipple.
Someone will pay Jackson big bucks as a backup hoping he'll live up to his potential. I could see him landing in a place with an older QB, like Seattle or Indy.
I've never heard anything about him being stupid... I honestly think he still has potential to be a good QB. Last year he had 9 touchdowns and only 2 interceptions IIRC. That's a pretty nice ratio compared to KC's 5 to 11 or whatever it was when he started. But yeah I agree with people that he probably wouldn't be a good backup, not because he doesn't have talent, I just think he's way too injury prone.
Yeah, but Jackson was playing in a conservative, extremely run heavy offense with a good defense to back him up. It's a lot easier to avoid INT's when defenses constantly have 9 in the box and you're never playing from far behind.
God, I hope if Sanchez has 20 TDs and 18 INT's in his first 19 starts, people don't call him a big bag of dicks...
