MadBuffaloDisease Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Convenient excuse to bench Culpepper. It's probably nothing more than any QB experiences after a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoondckCL Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I don't doubt this report. With how many times Culpepper gets slammed by opposing defenses? Go figure he gets hurt and now they look at Joey Harrington. Good Luck Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phlegm Alley Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Th reason he has a painful shoulder (if it is his throwing shoulder), is probably because his knee was never completely healed in the first place. As a result, he isn't able to step into his throws off his left leg, thus placing incredible strain on his shoulder because he is using all upper body. I saw this when we played the dolphags on a lot of his passes and figured he is going to develop some kind of arm problems if he kept throwing the ball like that.

Since when does the OC do the coaches and GM's job of selecting players? Sure he may have recommended getting DC, but its the Coaches and GM's that make the final say.

It's cheering for them to have Meathead going back and forth with his quarterback dysfunctions because he suddenly won a game with someone other than Culpepper. Which would mean the moment Culpepper looked like he was struggling in future games, he'd put in Harrington, then go back to Culpepper. Then back to Harrington. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. He'll have Fish fans burning down buildings and eating raw manatee. And in the process, the Pats drop a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are right but I believe this guy definitely will get better, much better later this year if not by next year. He has pretty damn good weapons right now and if the fish can MM and get oline (I hope they do neither) next year this guy will be a top ten QB again IMHO. Dare I say I hope I am wrong. P.S. Just thought I'd let you guys know that my gut instincts expressed are almost always resulting in someone telling me I am a jinx. Hope the trend continues....

Just thought I'd let you guys know that my gut instincts expressed are almost always resulting in someone telling me I am a jinx. Hope the trend continues.... It's possible that Culpepper may improve. But he's a turnover machine, with an average of 2 per game (1 fumble and 1 INT), and a sack magnet, taking almost 3 sacks a game over the course of his career. Beyond that, the biggest knock against him was poor decision-making, especially in big games. Add in the injury and the chances he improves are slim to none, especially if Baloney Mularkey remains his OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 If Joey bombs on Sunday, Marv should get on the phone & offer the Dolphins Kelly Holcomb for a 2nd round pick. The Dolphins have given #2 picks for A.J. Feeley & Culpepper, Holcomb will sound like a bargain compared to those two-especially after Mularkey hears about it & begs Saban to give him Kelly Holcomb to save the season & his job (Groundhog Day 2?)

Nah. They should play for the #1 overall pick next year. The fact is that Culpepper won't be 100% this season and Harrington is a scrub. Might as well shelve Culpepper, get some good draft picks, sign some FA's, and retool for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
