Bulldog1950 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Just my opinion. Mularkey could use an athletic qb with all the injuries along the Oline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog1950 Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 Look ever since the Vick fallout, the team has wanted to get away from the image of Vick. That has been a big problem for Shockley because he looks like and plays like Vick. Shockley is the second best qb and should be the back. Physically Shockley has the best arm and legs on the team. I truely believe if Shockley was white and fit the image of the stand in the pocket type he would be the backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought Douschey McGee from Bama would make the team over Shockley, but he showed his abilities better in his limited pre-season play...so he deserved the backup spot.

Bulldog1950 Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 (edited) I went to UGA, and think Shockley was great for us and was extremely excited when he drafted him.But he has been garbage in pre-season games every season, and hasnt established himself as an NFL caliber QB.

Redman looked good in the final preseason game and he looked like he should be selling insurance against the eagles. Maybe he hasn't performed great in preseason with odd situations that you play during the preseason but physically he is the best qb/athelete with his strength and speed. He is a qb and does know how to play the position. Edited December 7, 2009 by Smooches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metatron360 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 redman is just over the hill we should put up atleast 21 points per game with matt we put up near 30. with redman we are only getting 14-17. just not good enough with the sub par defense we got. i'd put jpw out there before redman again. lets face it if matty can't play this week this season is over.

markdzul Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 oh lord not this again.LMAO.I am all for shockley playing if he can help us at this time, but don't you think if there was an inkling that he would bring something positive on the field he would be out there at least on some kind of mobile wildcat type of play that would utilze his running ability. The sad part is he just can't get on the field. I would like to see him actually out there for a game during the regualar season just to see if he is worth keeping or not. BTW I am definitly not a DJ homer, i just think it would be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockPaperScissors Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I feel bad for DJ. 2007 was his chance to prove himself and a **** injury kept him out. That's just bad luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icemanforlife Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 This board has really turned into one of the worst places on the internet.I wish the Falcons would shut this terrible place down. DJ is crap. We need an experienced veteran QB that has started in this league to back up Matt. DJ does not fit tht bill. He is not good for this offense, and we would stall as an offense EVEN WORSE than we did yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
