Meanwhile David Carr and Brady Quinn both were impressive this weekend. Just an FYI

but wilson was open .... Croyle throws that ball to the corner pylon and it's 6 points for us. (if griffin makes the catch anyway)


i didn't like the fact that it was griffin in the pattern .... you want a taller guy. A tightend like gonzo or a receiver like bowe to use body learn to match the catch and tap the toes.

bottomline is that i haven't seen anything yet to change my opinion of Croyle coming out of college.

he has all the tools and talent to be a starting NFL caliber quarterback if healthy.

I didn't see any of the others but as I recall Croyle didn't need to be throwing off his back foot. In fact it was more falling backwards as I remember. He wasn't under that much pressure. There was one guy just ahead of him. He could have at least set his feet. On top of that he just kind flinged it. Didn't really throw it. Kind of side armed it. It was down right lousy fundementals, in fact, there wasn't any. It seemed to me like he thought he could just easily complete this pass. No problem. Don't matter how I throw it. I think its scary.

Croyles reminds me of a young QB, who has never started one NFL game in his life.

he needs to save the back-pedalling for those screen passes to PRIEST!! awwwwww hahaha ... that'll be a good story to tell.

I think this is exactly right.
