+Tyler Thigpen Appreciation Thread+

[Cornstock]

This is kinda cliche, but the critics and "experts" on TV always say that they look for young QBs to just not LOSE the game. They look for them to moderate the game until they have the experience to take over. Look at Roethlisburger in year 1: I wouldnt say he won the games, he just didnt lose them. He let his defense do their work and they were fortunate enough to have an incredible running game with a possible future hall of famer in Jerome Bettis.

Tyler Thigpen has not LOST these last 2 games for us. I would put that on the defense. Hes doing what anyone would expect a QB with 3 games under his belt would do. Hes learning and growing, and if he can work on his accuracy issues and staying calm under pressure he has a lot of potential.

24 pts on the road and 27 points at home - should be good enough to win. Thiggy's done his part and he's still real raw - he'll only improve. This _efense is humiliating. 339 yards passing to a dink offense? Ouch.

I think Thigpen is highly entertaining. He completely powned Rhonde Barber by selling that fake when he lined up at WR. LOL! Teams will have to respect him now if splits wide again.

And this Mark Bradley guy seems like a strong #2 to D-Bowe.

Yep, hopefully Will Franklin can develop into a solid #3. He hasn't done much yet but that doesn't bug me. The #3 receiver in this offense is probably the #5 option in the passing game behind Bowe, Bradley, Gonzalez, and the runningback. Kind of hard to get to yor 5th progression with only 3 seconds max to throw the ball.

And that's EXACTLY why we should blow our first-round draft load on a Quarterback instead of a Defensive Play maker like Rey Maualuga, man!!!
DON'T YOU SEE THE GENIUS????
