I, for one, am not looking at stats. I have never said Bradford is a better quarterback than __________. (fill in the blank with whoever) I AM an OU fan. Have watched as many of their games as I can. In the last few years I have watched Josh Heupel, Nate Hybil, Jason White, and Paul Thompson behind center, and even in Jason Whites Heisman run have never really thought any of them would be a top prospect in the NFL. Just didn't see any of them as leaders on an NFL stage. With Bradford I can see that extra "something". Can't explain it, and don't know what that "something" is. But I see a difference in him that I didn't see in any of the others. he doesn't get rattled, he stands in the pocket knowing he is about to get blasted and still makes the throw, he can throw on the run in a roll out or bootleg, and guys, I have seen him put a ball in a shoebox sized gap to his receiver, more importantly I see him week after week make throws that are impressive. So impressive that at times it looks like he is just out there playing pitch and catch with his receivers. Isn't that one of the best qualities a quarterback can have??? One that makes it look easy??? Very seldom have I seen him under/over throw a receiver. He is accurate enought to knock a maggot off a turd at thirty yards, he makes it look easy and you guys are saying that is the reason he wont be successful in the NFL?? I am not basing my opinion of him on stats, or being a homer, just as a fan watching him week after week control games, play smart, make throws, and never try to force throws he knows he shouldn't make. Bradford quite simply is a very, very, very good quarterback.
