He had a very good game with some amazing throws. His deep ball gets better and better. I think the red zone issues are primarily line play and maybe a little on the play calling. He's gone up against four very good defenses, maybe even five cause the skins are good or were before those injuries in the game against us. The next two defenses can apply some pressure but are capable of giving up yardage and touch downs. We then have the bye week followed by a trip to SF.
It's going to be fun to watch him grow with the rest of the WR's while Danny is out and then turn it up with all of them the last part of the season. _________________

To make Sam trust other WR's..
So sad I didn't see more Smith..
Quick is beyond raw and lacks football IQ..
His football IQ is very bad.. Either that or he's
not just expecting Sam to throw him the ball..
Gibson man... I hope he can keep this up.
He has been very good this year minus the Bears game..
He has the tools to be a very good 2.. Because he's strong
and runs solid routes.. We still badly need that number 1.
Sam played awesome today.. |
It's funny you mention that because I watched a tape breakdown of the INT last week and they discussed that very thing that Quick doesn't run his full route when he's not the 1st or 2nd option and he doesn't anticipate the route changes off the blitz. We saw that at least once today. _________________

Yep. There's a reason why he doesn't have a large role in this offense yet. He's still learning. _________________

like the number one overall pick. all those yards and completion percentage, and no tds. And at this point if thats still acceptable to you than all those years of mediocrity has screwed your perception. _________________ Rams Rams Rams

What's the #1 pick supposed to play like?
And he did score a TD. Red-zone offense as a whole needs improvement.
And yea, Bradford's performance today was quite acceptable to me. I don't get hung up on stupid statistics. I watched the guy play and he played his heart out. The offense, as a whole, falls apart in the red-zone. Hard to pin-point one player as being solely at fault. Bradford needs to improve and he will but so do our WRs, HBs and OL.
This is a team game, the team's failure is the team's failure. It's not all laid upon Bradford like some of you believe it should.
My perception is fine. The question becomes if your expectations are reasonable and if you're just going to blame Bradford either ways when we lose because "he's the QB and a #1 overall pick". _________________

It's up to you. Just asking you to defend your point and "expectations". What is up to par for a #1 pick? _________________

I expect bradford to be a GREAT qb, a playmaker. Makes everyone else around him better. A quarterback where we can rely on his arm to win games. Hes just not there yet plain and simple. _________________ Rams Rams Rams

Honestly, though, how many guys are there? And how many of those guys were there in their 3rd year?
I'd just set my expectations to a very good QB and raise them once he gets there.  _________________

i see where your coming from and all, but my logic of thinking is always in the grandeur. I want to be able to confidently say we have one of the best, if not the best qb/team in the league. And until then... well i'm not ever satisfied. _________________ Rams Rams Rams

I need to watch that on Coach's film. It seemed to me that Jenkins didn't know his assignment or that Dahl blew his coverage. _________________

People want elite.. But elite takes years..
Elite takes till year 5-6-7
Look at Matt Ryan. He is barely playing
to an elite level. For YEARS he has been a
dink and dunk passer.
Same for Brees-Brady..
The exception to the Rule is Peyton Manning though.
He was just a incredible QB with a insane IQ.
Seems like you guys want sizzle.
RG-Cam style.. But you forget that
Sam was spectacular his rookie year.
I absolutely love where Sam is at.
He's making plays man. That's all you want.
He gives us a chance to win the game. HOW
LONG has it been since we had that?
Do you guys miss the 20-40 point BLOW OUTS?
Because I don't. My heart is racing in every game.
Sam along with the offense is evolving. We are making
chicken salad with chicken Ish. You forget that we have
3 starters along the Oline missing.
As a team we are growing. Sam can only get better.
He is running when he needs to. He scrambles when
he needs to. He throws it out when he needs to.
Even Dolphin fans were impressed by him.
Dude has played 4 straight top 10 D's.
Cut him some slack... He is giving us
hope.. A hope of winning every game.
Our running game will only get better as well.
DR is too good not to notice. He will steal
carries away from Sjax. We have Givens who
looks to be a stud in the making.
This team can go no where but up.. _________________
