This one I can deftinaly relate, since there are quite a few FA's that will be somewhat wanting top-notch money, only giving little production. (I.E. Hugh Douglas)

Given our situation...maybe...

We don't have a good pass protecting o-line...Brees would have to be able to move. I'll be honest though...haven't watched him enough to see how mobile he is....it could work out though.

the Rat has staked what's left of his rep on him.

You and I both know that the sacks allowed is low mostly due to Plummer's mobility.

When Plummer was forced to stand in the pocket against KC, the Chiefs nailed him 6 times.

Plummer runs for his life more than any QB in the league. You need an upgrade at two or three spots on the O-Line.

Case in point ... Muhsin. He's a FA and had a PHENOMENAL year... he'll want to get paid, I'm wondering what will happen with him.

Yes, in one game ... Denver gave up 6 of the 16 (?) sacks over the season. The Oline has it's strengths, run blocking being the key - so they need a QB with mobility. You pointed that out in your statement.

Well he is over 30, since I'm not sure what his exact age is, but I would think that his production will slip once he gets that money. It's usually like this for most old-aged "veterans".

I would think you would know what I mean when the name "Dan Williams" is mentioned.

He's pretty mobile...kind of a tweener in that area.

One thing about Jake running for his life... many times, those were designed rollouts/bootlegs to take advantage of what the defense offered.

Again - not saying the Oline is perfect, there's a FA or two that needs to be resigned or upgraded. But, if Jake had a consistent safety blanket (read solid TE), then a lot of that running for his life as you describe is eliminated.

He's not a great pocket passer... I've never denied it, but they typically game plan around that and it has worked.

That is the catch, is it he has reached that point where he gets it, or is he a one year wonder. I went on record saying I thought Plummer would be a real good QB in that system. He has not got there yet, and at this point I wonder if he will.

I also would not be shocked to see Shanny coaching the 49ers. They need a coach, he needs a fresh start. I would not be shocked to see huge change in Denver. It will be a very interesting offseason.

OH NO, say it aint so, wtf happened Taco a few years before you was comparing Green and Plummer and saying that Plummer was gonna be a better QB then GREEN.

SO WTF HAPPEN TO THAT ?

Just goes to show how ignorant Donkey fans can be.

You need to teach us to be smarter.

I think it's pretty obvious what the situation is here.

Plummer needs to scramble to be effective, the Rat figured that out. It's not because for some reason he magically becomes a decent quarterback when his feet are moving. It's because (1) he can't read the whole field (2) when receiving pressure in the pocket he tends to lob the ball up for grabs.

Sorry, Peter King and other Plummer pimps. He's not just somehow "good throwing on the run". He doesn't suddenly understand football when he leaves the tackle box. He doesn't all of a sudden gain the ability to throw a pass on target when moving. The reason is because he sucks at performing the full duties of a starting QB in the NFL so they have to make things simpler for him.

Sure if you ever become a chiefs fan that goal will have been succeeded.

And still, he had a good 2004.
