Some see an amazing catch by Parrish and I see a poorly thrown ball by a guy who shouldn't be throwing a ball that poorly. And two picks? And four sacks? Where's the elusiveness? Where's the strong arm? Where's the JP we've all been waiting for? This kids getting some big bucks and he better start getting it together now because we don't have any time to waste. It's bad enough we've got a left tackle getting spun around like a NYC subway turnstile. J Mac better have something up his sleeve at that spot because it's obvious JP has enough problems trying to throw a football in practice, let alone worrying about his blind side all season. Damn.

SACTOBILLSFAN Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Sorry, in this game of NFL football, you can't win consistently without a good quarterback. He doesn't have to be All-Pro, but he can't be average, either. And no matter how you cut it, the Cowboys' quarterback play has been average at best over the past four seasons. Thus, a 26-38 record. HAHAHA Drew's record in his last 4 seasons as a full time starter (Buf 2002-04, NE 2000)? Anybody know? Its 28-36! I am going to love living down here in TX with all these Cowgirls fans! This team is going to blow and with Drew's "mobility" combined with Larry Allen being too much of a fat ass to play this team is headed for a 3-4 win season. Its fun watching the Girls' fans being disillussioned just like us Bills fans 4 yrs ago! Bledsoe is below average at best and has been for the last 5 or 6 years. Bill Parcells needs to take his man-titties and just retire because Bledsoe is done. And so are the Cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mile High Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I really think that Mularkey and his coaching staff are going to be some of the best coaches in the NFL, in time. With that being said they are seeing the same stuff that the reporters are ie. Mike09754?, Tgreg, Nick in RaChaCha and the others that attend. Things will be corrected. I look at it this way... If they can draw up decent enough game plans to play to JP's strengths and weaknesses then we will be fine. We won 9 games (should've been 10) with Bledsoe as a starter. Enough said. However the only thing that really concerns me is that LT position. I really do believe that they are strongly taking a look at Duke Preston's progress before they make a move. Whether it be via FA or shifting the line around. I'm not drawing up conclusions on anything until I see it for myself (Texans Game). Have confidence.

SACTOBILLSFAN Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 He must complete like 60 percent of his passes. He must throw for at least close to 3,000 yards, if not more. He must drop like 20 touchdown passes on the league. And he had better not end up with a 20 spot when it comes to interceptions. And . . . and . . . is it asking too much for the Cowboys' leading quarterback to be sacked fewer than the at least 34 they have suffered in each of the past three seasons? I don't know how this thread turned its focus to Bledsoe but this article is just too freakin much. IN his last 2 years Bledsoe was under 60% in completion percentage. And i dont think any Bills fan needs to be reminded of Bledsoe's "pat pat pat sack" style of play behind the line. If Larry Allen can't push himself away from the buffett long enough to get on the field Bledsoe will be sacked at least 34 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeF Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I am worried about JP as well. Careers are made and lost on first practices after being named starters. All the great ones...Starr, Montana, Elway, Manning..all had great first practices after being named the starter. JP is already behind....Collins, Johnson, Bledsoe, Van Pelt, Flutie--add the name Losman to the pile of unsuccessful Kelly replacements. Into the abyss...

nodnarb Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Labz, I'm surprised atchoo. It was one practice. His first as The Man. How many first time starters looked brilliant in their first camp, let alone their first practice as #1? You're smart. You know better than to start worrying NOW. He looked great in preseason LAST YEAR. Right now he also has other players making mistakes, too. He'll improve as they play. He's a gamer. I bet he'll always perform better in games than in practice. Give the kid some time before you start worrying. He's going to make his mistakes and some of them will be doozies. But I believe we'll all agree at the end of the season that he gave us a better chance to win games than Drew. And he'll be better than any of THIS year's rookie QBs, which will further add weight to the "The trade for JP was brilliant" theory, to which I subscribe. Have a beer, Labz.

Gavin in Va Beach Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Good QB in practice = RJ/Bledsoe Our last couple of QB's have always been great in practice. In a game, not so much.
