[Bledsoe may be considered old school, but it is the school most quarterbacks attend, including Manning.] They're almost clones, ... They're that similar in their style and how they play the game. I don't think the game has changed from the time Drew was drafted until Eli was drafted. |
[The problem I'm having with Harrington is he should be beyond some of the mistakes he continues to make in his fourth season. He has thrown 1,564 passes, but if the light bulb has gone on, it isn't burning brightly.] I thought I really liked him coming out, ... I saw an upside. But I don't see the growth you like to see in a young quarterback, decision-making wise and throwing wise. |
He has a difficult time extending the play when the receivers are covered, and then he makes bad decisions. When Joey moves, he isn't seeing the field with clarity. |
He only had to make one or two plays a game, and he could play to that defense. Not to denigrate the job he did there, because he did a terrific job. |
I just hope that's enough, ... because the Eagles have a lot of things working against them now, too. |
I know how much the coach puts into it. Everybody in Kansas City understands the work ethic of the man. You just don't walk away from that and not take a piece of it with you. |
I know that Dan Marino, Donovan McNabb and Randall Cunningham didn't exactly blow the top off the score, and they were pretty darn good football players. There is some validity to it, but the main thing is: Can you play football? And one thing that jumps out at you is what an incredible athlete he is. |
I think A.J. is a little slower in processing information. Gus has more experience and playing time; he's a little quicker at reading defenses and getting the ball out. But A.J. has all the tools to assimilate more as time goes on. |
I thought I really liked him coming out. I saw an upside. But I don't see the growth you like to see in a young quarterback, decision-making-wise and throwing-wise. |
If nothing else, it's going to be an interesting season in Philadelphia. |
In every meeting I've ever been in, the quarterbacks and receivers sit with each other and the quarterbacks coach is constantly directing things at those guys and they're constantly going over details, |
It's as hard as I've ever seen it on anybody. |
It's like that old saying about real estate -- it's all about location, |
It's really basic stuff at this point that they have to learn to do better. It's one-on-one, combination blocking stuff that they have to do. |
Jaws, how long am I going to feel like this? |
