Thigpen could be the best fit down the stretch (and an interesting Henne stat)

Eh, I don't buy that Hugo G, if anything we got the worst of both worlds:

-Henne looked like a changed Qb v the Titans, then went out, so we cannot know if he is "the guy" was that a fluke, or was it Henne going Neo?

-Impossible to tell whether Thigpen is any good or not, 6 sacks, Bears ToP 17 minutes longer than we had the ball, the difference in the amount of plays run between the two teams is also massive, when you have say 45 plays to look at, and 6 are sacks, and 7 are terrible running plays, what exactly is there to learn even if you knew the playcalls?

Sparano did say Thiggy checked out of 4 running plays into passing plays, including the 25 ydr to Hartline, is that good, bad or what?

What's worse, we split the two games so even Win Now did not work out only now the team has been degraded by injuries on the Oline and at Wr.

Statistical fact for you Hugo G,

1 Wr 55 catches 615 yds about 11 yds per catch

1 wr 55 catches 693 yds about 11yds per catch

1 is Greg Camarillo in 08, the other is Marshall in 2010, can you tell who is who?

 

Greg C did not play a full season, he was injured in Gm #11.

The similarity of their production, "ceiling" and all, is remarkably similar, as in perhaps they simply traded out Camarillo for Marshall and retained the same offensive design.

 

yeah, but you also have to account that marshalls just being there frees up other people, because they always double cover him.

 

Agreed, and how many team double or triple cover Cam? NONE!

 

Sure there is.

You are right, Camarillo did have an additional TD and no dropped passes.

And Santa will bring me a pony, no one knows what will happen the rest of the year, if anything I suspect he will be de-emphasized until they start rolling coverage to Hartline.

Ah, so Stat Monkery does exist..for you that is like saying Big Foot or UFO's exist..

 

But we sure like to use 2nd rounders on them .We dont have a second rounder this year so we are safe.

 

You say that now, but watch - we'll trade down and give that 2nd rounder to Philly for their backup QB...

 

How about Henne for Vince Young straight up?

 

Ugh, no thanks. I'd prefer taking my chances on Locker or Mallett (I want neither).

 

Vince Young in a FIns uniform would make me puke!

 

Eh, seriously, I wouldn't know what to think, winning to me is the only measuring stick, and VY does win ballgames, however he is wildly immature, but so was Vick, and round and round it goes.

I think we all saw that a Qb, who stands in the pocket and makes proper reads and delivers accurate throws can beat any team in the NFL, there is another way to win, the sort of athlete/Qb who breaks the field and causes chaos for the defense.
