If as OTW you need facts I can get them. I know there is a chance he could be the one a million guy that comes in and dominates. But let me tell you although rothesberger, flaco, and Ryan weren't dominant they had good teams. How do you know thigpen with a better d and o line couldn't do great as well.
Now I'm not saying pulling a croyle and giving him the starter position but add some competition and see what he could do. But at least give him a chance before calling him a bust.

The reason that people have reservations about Thigpen is because how horrendously he played in the Atlanta game in a Pro Set.
You can not win in this league if you are limited to the spread because your QB can't adapt to a pro style offense.
Now it isn't out of the realm of possibility that a spread QB can adjust, however the only guys to do so far are Brees and Roesthlisberger.
Sanchez and Stafford have been playing in the pro set, so they are already ahead of the curve.
