Aren't you afraid of being labeled a Losman " Liquor " !

BTW - I agree with you.

Agreed! I'm so excited about the future. The light in his head finally went on this season and now we have seen what this kid can do.


Anyone else get chills when they saw JP chase Samari Rolle down and then literally throw him out of bounds? It reminded me soo much of what Jim Kelly would do.

Totally happy. Not a need. It will be a disgrace if we draft here on Day1

Re: I am not only fine with JP as our QB next year

This is just my feeling, a strong feeling, that JP is one of those players that the scouts are right: he needs time to develop.

Right now what would you describe Losman's best asset as a QB? If I take a poll, most will probably answer arm strength. To me, after this season, I see that thing the scouts liked him from Tulane: instincts.

I gave one example. His INT where McAlister ran back for a TD in the last guy. Losman said he completed a couple of similar passes earlier. He kind of felt that McAlister might be sitting on that now; he just went to the well one time too many in that situation. You might be surprised not too many QBs in NFL have that kind of instincts. They would mechanically execute the play as drawn by the coaches, or they might shun McAlister all together because of his reputation.

For a guy ran around in Tulane making plays after plays, he has to have good instincts to be successful. But he needs time and experience to translate that into NFL. I'm more convinced now than ever that Losman is more of a Flutie type of QB (not Favre), who will use his understanding to play the game eventually. Of course Losman has much better physical tools than Flutie, which would allow him to be much more successful in NFL.

A guy has natural instincts, good tools (strong arm and well above average escapability), and he has passion, the desire to work and get better, no wonder Jauron is giddy about his QB. It's a matter of time for the guy to instinctively making better decisions.

that pretty much sums it up for me.

I am happy because this team can finally start to move forward with the most important position being solidified.

I've been telling my friends that this guy is a next-gen Doug Flutie - mobility who's gonna make the opposing d worry about him scrambling, and will turn sundays into streetball type games - which is good because he's gonna be making the opposing Ds play his game.

That single play alone makes all the RJ comparisons ridiculous.

Exactly. RJ would have just layed down on the ground and watched the guy go by.

No, but I got chills when he blocked for Willis and took Zach Thomas out.
