No more Hefty Lefty? http://www.newsday.com/sports/football/ny-spgiants245739862jun24,0,5177489.story
Noooooooooo...nom nom nom. I'd still rather have him than Carr or Wright, but I can see what they're doing here. Make Carr the backup and keep Andre Woodson around as a higher-ceiling emergency guy.
He can always get an endorsement deal with Subway. Look at it this way, he has a Super Bowl ring, so for champ he's a better QB than Dan Marino or Jim Kelly.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Lorenzen Because of his size he has a collection of colorful nicknames, including "Quarter(got)back",[1] "Hefty Lefty",[2] "The Pillsbury Throwboy",[3] "The Abominable Throwman", [4] "J.Load",[5] "Round Mound of Touchdown",[5]"BBQ (Big Beautiful Quarterback)"[6] "Battleship Lorenzen",[7] "Butterball",[8] and "Lord Of The Ring-Dings".[9] ============== I like He Ate Me the best, though.
This was the joke of the day on the Raidfers board. That Raiders should sign him to backup Jamarcus Russell. J.Load could back up JRuss... Or at worst be the Raiders starting LT.
Wow. That's a pretty strong statement there Jeaux. How much time do you give Russell to achieve "John Elway" status? I'd like to hear this prediction?
Chubsy-Ubsy gets a pink slip. Oh, Miss Crabtree... I'm sure The York Post will have a headline field day, but The Newsday one was pretty good.
I give Russell two full starting years to become that player(2010 season). Like every QB hes going to have his ups and downs.(growing pains) Again Russell going to a very nice situation in Oakland , as he dosen't have to carry the offense by himself, and he does have alot of premier young talent around him.
Raiders are going to kick ass in the Punt Pass and Kick competitions at halftime of the real NFL games.
