What's with the Thigpen fixation?
Now I fully admit it isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be on this forum but I've yet to figure out this fixation with him. It's really bad at some other unnamed forums..

I honestly have no way of comprehending what it's about. It's like everything people said about Croyle has now been lumped onto Thigpen. "Well um he's the guy we don't need another QB"

The worst part is the people who don't want a QB this year then say well if Thigpen doesn't work out we can just take Bradford or McCoy, it's like peoples brains fell out.

Perhaps some people are demanding too much from him, but I still don't know how anyone can think that Thigpen has shown enough to pass up on a potential franchise QB. He's only played out of the spread, and he has horrible footwork and accuracy. He certainly has room for improvement, but I don't see franchise QB potential in him. I think that if you don't have a franchise quarterback, you cannot pass on one in the draft.

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?

People have stated their opinion on this for the last several months, you just don't agree with the answer.

Both of those things are fine.

People thought our offense improved with him back there last year, he showed more poise in the pocket than we've seen in awhile, he is decent sized, has a pretty strong arm.

There are some flaws for sure, but the people who want to give him another chance think those flaws can be worked out.

He should be the QB because hes the best one we have on the roster today. If we should draft one or pick a FA up then let the best man win. Is that enough logic for ay?

And I tend to agree with all of this. I hope we draft a QB if Pioli and Haley see a franchise QB at #3. No question about it.

There are obviously some that don't feel there is one. Same way you don't feel that Thigpen is one.

Both opinions are just that.

The fact that he has to play in the spread is a giant issue..it's why spread QB's fail at such a high rate. Thinking a guy can just learn to play in a normal offense in the snap of a finger is not realistic. Many guys, some taken top 10 couldn't learn to do it to think this guy can is banking on a such a long shot..

And for doomy he's really not decent sized, by NFL QB standards he's short.
