Duff_Man Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 (Also posted in Pure Football, but at least people read this forum)So yesterday my buddy and I were noticing a huge amount of interceptions being thrown in the early games. I flipped to every game and realized something: The QBs playing yesterday were some of the worst I have ever seen. Have we ever seen a worse day of QBs than this?Daunte Culpepper: Started in place of Stafford.David Carr: Filled in when the Giants pulled Eli.JaMarcus Russel: Still starting for Oakland and maybe the worst we've seen in years.Jake Delhomme: An INT Machine.Josh Johnson: Starting for the Bucs. Barely better than Russel at this point.Derek Anderson: A desperate move for a desperate team. They set a franchise low for passing yards. (2-17, 23 yards).Trent Edwards: He can overthrow Usain Bolt at this point.Tavares Jackson: Got some garbage time for the Vikes.Jason Campbell: Truly bad.Kyle Boller: Started for the Rams. He's just plain bad. Eventually replaced by Marc Bulger.Late games:Shaun Hill: The pure definition of starting by default. He got annihilated.What do we have to look forward to tonight? Chad Henne.Can anyone think of a week that featured so many bad QBs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proto Man Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 wait... he really went 2 for 17?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConnFalcon Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Russell is a terrible QB. I really thought it was because of the system he was in, but he is just plain bad. He has no accuracy, and no awareness. If he continues like this he won't be starting by the end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Henne.Can anyone think of a week that featured so many bad QBs?Actually Josh Johnson was fairly impressive yesterday for a player who was drafted in the 5th round from a mid-level college and did not see the field at all his first year. He seems to be confident, has good mobility, good arm strength, and was accurate when he wasn't being blitzed to death by the Eagles. They must have blitzed him about 25 times or more and the TB offensive line is porous, at best. Clayton and Bryant must have had about 6 drops between the two of them and we're not talking about hard catches either. Johnson seems to have a good grasp of their offense and even appears to have some leadership qualities as I witnessed him trying to rally and encourage his fellow offensive members on the sidelines. Even the commentator mentioned several times how impressed he was by him yesterday and from what he had heard, that he was a hard worker and wants to improve. I know they drafted this guy out of Kansas State, but, Johnson should be given the rest of the year to grow and develop. It'll be interesting to see how the QB situation works out down there. They may have found a diamond in the rough. He's light years ahead of Russell though, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REV.2000 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I DON'T THINK CULPEPPER WAS ALL THAT BAD EITHER. CONSIDERING WHAT HE WAS UP AGAINST. THEY WOULD HAVE FARED NO BETTER WITH STAFFORD. CULPEPPER KEPT THEGAME FROM BECOMING ..... A RUN-AWAY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff_Man Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Yeah Henne looked OK. I still say that if you have a good QB, you don't run an offense that takes it out of his hands 30% of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConnFalcon Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 chad played well....real well....surprisinglyYup. I actually think Henne will have a decent year. The Dolphins actually have a deep threat now. Better pick up Ted Ginn in your fantasy leagues! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
