You can disagree with it. Thats fine.

Don't act like it didn't get written.

You mean this one?

Forgive me, but I fail to see how you ignoring Mecca's question and asking one of your own is stating a case for Thigpen.

And the QB you draft won't have any room to improve after he starts 8 games?

And that would even be comparing apples to oranges...your guy would get a training camp to work in the offense.

I think what gets me is there are several well reasoned arguments that can be made for why he isn't the guy, pointing those out is somehow bad and asking for just 1 reasoned one in return isn't cool either.

I don't get that.

Atleast my guy could properly drop back from center and operate in an NFL offense.

Yea, I am Mecca...nobody understands me...nobody responds to my posts how I want them to respond.

Hopefully someday we will all be able to communicate on the same plane as you.

You didn't answer my question.

Why can't Thigpen improve?

Other QBs get allll the patience in the worlllldddd. Yet Thigpen gets 8 games where the whole offense was changed in the middle. A suspect line. A suspect running game. And he gets the ball the endzone. Makes plays makes things happen...never even had a training camp as more of an after thought.

Every other young QB gets years of patience and Thigpen gets 8 games.

Why can't he improve?
That's stating a case?

Looks like a bunch of ****ing excuses to me.

Would he be able to improve after 8 starts?

Don't be afraid to answer this question with a simple yes or no.

It's obviously hard to get an answer to a simple question that doesn't involve severe hyperbole.

Its not a bunch of excuses...it is big factors the guy had going against him...

Yet with all those things?

He moved the ball...and got the Chiefs in the endzone. He is a gamer.

This might be the single best post in WPI's history. At least someone over there gets it.

Tyler Thigpen wouldn't start for any of the other 31 teams in the league.

Know why?

No one would be willing to scrap their entire offense to change to the Pistol, so he could be effective.

I've seen several people make a case against him, but have yet to see anyone actually state a case.

Anyone?

You're way out of line with this post.

Buehler445 02-10-2009 05:48 PM

I personally think we should draft Sanchez. I'm on record as saying as much. But to pretend that Thigpen has no future and is the worst QB in the history of the game is kind of ass-reeruned also.

Here's the deal. Herm enforced his suck on the offense. Croyle got dead, like Croyle does. Huard quit, like Huard does. Thigpen comes in. Thigpen sucks. Until someone tells Herm to stfu and see if Gailey can work some magic. We go to the pistol. We score a lot of points. Still lose.

Thiggy put up numbers in a non-pro style offense. He sucked in the second half. The offense sucked in the redzone.

But the kid made some plays. Draft Sanchez, see what you have in the kid with the offense that the coach wants to run. If he sucks, fine. If not, cool! We've got a battle on our hands for QB.

That's about the only case that can be made for him.

He is not the unequivocal QBOTF for this team.

He is also not complete ass.

Basileus777 02-10-2009 05:48 PM

The pro-Thigpen argument in this thread basically boils down to that it's possible that Thigpen might improve, so we should put our entire future on his shoulders. Oh, and math sucks, screw the odds.
