    Seriously? You are still whining about Brohm?

    Edwards: 68% completion, 2 TDs, 1 INT, 9.0 yard average, 103 QB rating

    Fitzpatrick: 66% completion, 2 TDs, 0 INT, 6.0 yard average, 110 QB rating

    Brohm: 56% completion, 0 TDs, 1 INT, 5.5 yard average, 61 QB rating


    If Brohm makes the team it's only because Brown sucked more or Fitzpatrick gets traded.

    People still think Losman didn't get a fair shake.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

      Thank you, someone finally makes this comparison.

      The man crush so many have on this guy is just fascinating. Stats don't lie.

      And the "excuse" that he's playing with 3rd teamers therefore he looks bad holds NO water with me. If he was as special as everyone claims he is....he'd be able to pick apart a young, inexperienced secondary, fire the ball into spots he knows his WR's will be, not seem like a deer in headlights when a "vanilla" blitz comes his way from a bunch of scrubs who will be jobless by saturday....he would rip **** up if he were any good.

        Why can't they keep Edwards, Fitzpatrick and Brohm and put Brown on the practice squad?

          This is what I think they'll do. But that doesnt mean for a second that Brohm will ever be the answer.

            the risk of losing brown in waivers to a team like seattle or arizona. they are desperate and might want him, just like we were desperate and took brohm.

              Who cares. Brown isn't anything special anyway.

                Brohm is PS-eligible as well. He wouldn't be claimed. I don't think either guy would be claimed.

                  Stats don't lie? The hell they don't. Anyone with a brain can tell you stats can be manipulated to support both sides of an argument.

                    I doubt Trent or Fitz would have had any better stats playing with the scrubs as Brohm did.

                      This argument is ******ed. If he had shown anything in camp he would've spent some time with the #1's. But since our trained coaching staff (you know those guys who get paid to do this for a living) didnt see enough there to give him reps, that says all I need to know.

                      This blind love fest for a guy who has never shown anything in the NFl is sooo stupid. The JP Losman thing I can get he was a first round pick so there was some intrigue but we picked Brohm up off a practice squad!
                      I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"

                        This is a player that has been around the block. This is his 3rd season and he has already been cut once.

                        Here are his combined preseason stats in 3 years:

                        76-for-131 (58%), 640 Yds (4.9 Yds/Att), 0 TD, 3 Int, 61.2 QB Rating

                        He has played in 1 regular season game, and here is his stats:

                        17-for-29 (59%), 146 Yds (5.0 Yds/Att), 0 TD, 2 Int, 43.2 QB Rating

                        That is a significant statistical sample that shows poor play, over 3 years. On top of that, the fact the Packers cut him only a year after taking him in the 2nd round would seem to be evidence that he isn't any good. Think about it, how long has Hardy been on scholarship?

                        Let's examine the evidence that he may have promise... there isn't any. He has shown zero that would make you think he will be any good as an NFL QB.

                        What is it about this guy that people love so much? I don't get it. Wishing he will be good isn't going to change anything.

                          All I see is a lot of stats being thrown around. I could be a scout pretty easily if it only required to read numbers.

                            Yours is the ******ed argument. Trent went into OTA's as the #1. He has played pretty well & deserved to stay there. Fitz replaced Trent last year & was #2. Again, he did nothing to lose his place in the order.

                            The fact is if either of those 2 had to play with the scrubs, their stats would have suffered likewise.

                              You think he has passed the eyeball test as well? I mean, the Packers cut the guy, and it wasn't because of crappy numbers.
