If Geno thinks he can not do anything after the end of the regular season he had and still go 1, he's either way off, or we are being told alot of wrong things.

And I'd say at this point that it's MUCH more likely we're being told a lot of wrong things. These guys and their agents don't generally just **** around when there's millions on the line... |

Isn't this is a thread about the how he's doing at the IMG Academy? So he's clearly doing something.

If he just decides to have a pro day, thats as close to doing nothing as he can get. IMO, shows he's a little afraid of pressure. |

I think Geno shows confidence in himself by NOT opting to throw at the combine.
He puts all the pressure on himself at his proday to go out and knock it out of he park. |

They're going to give Geno a hell of a lot better analysis than "Caught or missed". Are you telling me that Geno's guys wouldn't have given a script to the scouts or that Andy Reid won't be able to tell the difference between a bad throw and simple bad chemistry? Gimme a break. Again, I don't really care about history - I care about what this prospect is doing in this draft. If he doesn't throw, it's because he's worried he'll hurt his draft stock - period. Given how much of a wildcard this draft class is, that bothers me and it doesn't matter to me how many QBs have chosen not to throw before him.

Quite frankly, we could do this all day. You could take any individual piece of info and spin it for or against. We simply don't know what's going on. But when it comes right down to it, these guys' agents aren't stupid. They make the bank for a reason. Gotta trust that he's doing it right. |

Confidence is knowing that he can do it and knowing damn sure that he can repeat it. You've now gone 'cult of Geno' twice in this thread alone. No, he doesn't have a top 10 NFL arm when his feel go wonky, that's just insanity. And no, refusing to throw at the combine is not because he's super-confident. This is the kind of crap that makes it more difficult to defend sensible arguments.

I sometimes feel like you don't read much.
I've spoken to my reasons several times and so far the best response you or anyone else seems inclined to give is "well other guys don't do it" as though that's some sort of substantive retort. I. do. not. give. a. shit. if. past. quarterbacks. haven't. thrown. I've now said it 4 times, is it clear enough yet? Past quarterbacks weren't coming on the heels of the Luck/RGIII draft and having to prove their mettle in a fairly bunched QB class (that is regarded as a QB poor draft as it is). Geno is facing a set of circumstances that are relatively unique this year and he's going to do nothing more than a single pro day to not only separate himself from his QB peers, but guys like Joeckel, Moore, etc...; that's a massive error in judgment.

everyone complains they want a qb that has the "IT" factor.. I agree i want a qb that has the IT factor and is not afraid to throw the ball no matter who he's throwing too. The guy that has the IT factor is going to go out there and throw the ****ing ball to prove he's the man. Don't care about other top QB's not throwing it. Those were different years and we weren't in position to take those guys, or we just plain passed on taking them. If geno is the guy that everyone says he is and has the IT factor i want him to prove it.
