Re: Thad Lewis for Governor threads
He's a scrappy dude who can make all the throws which is more than we can say about the guy who was supposed to be the franchise savior. Still doesn't mean he's good enough as he has serious ball security issues.

Re: Thad Lewis for Governor threads
He was, at best, a 4th string QB in TC..
He's making his 3rd or 4th start in the NFL;
He didn't have his speed back,
His No. 1 WR was limping throughout the game;
He was rocked several times at the start of the game.
One fumble was caused by a helmet to the ball, a hit in which many RB's are known to fumble;
One fumble was caused by a pussified block by Scott Chandler;
He had a TD taken away because a hold by the aforementioned Chandler.
And he kept coming back.
I'm not saying to build a franchise around the guy...I just find it hard to hate on him.
Scott Chandler did more damage to the O than Lewis did today.

Since when?
You can hate on the floaters, the overthrows but we saw Manuel doing that consistently the first few games.
Difference between Manuel and Lewis? Lewis can actually complete those throws from time to time which is better than the savior who completes them never.

OK - have you made your mind up on him that much that you are only going to look at the mistakes he has made and not pay any attention to the good plays?
Lewis also throws a lot more passes that are complete crap than Manuel hasOriginally posted by mysticsotoLecter is right in everything he said.

But I also see his limitations and am watching fans fall in love with a guy with a very limited ceiling.
Chandler made his mistakes (although lets not pretend he should be in that position as his blocking skills are limited to start with)Originally posted by mysticsotoLecter is right in everything he said.

Lewis is a back-up plain and simple. And that's Ok. It really is. He has already done far more than anyone could have dreamed. Let the arguement die. EJ starts when he's back and he will probably get 3 years to prove himself.

People keep talking about Manuel having this infinite ceiling and that he has all sorts of potential and he's a rookie. Fact of the matter is, still as of right now, Manuel has started more NFL games than Thad Lewis. Yet Lewis has no ceiling and no potential.
The only thing Manuel has been better at so far is ball security but he's fumbled 3 times too and thrown 3 INTs.
