Kurt Warner

Was it even a thought?

I'm happy for the guy. I don't want Eli to start.

if TD would have gotten warner, we all would have blasted him!

This may just be a comeback story if it keeps going.

The guy's playing great right now, but the entire world felt he was done. For two season he looked a lot like Bledsoe does now. Deer in headlights. If people weren't happy with Drew, there's no way they would've wanted Warner. They looked like the same QB, Warner was even a little worse. Somehow he's snapped out of it, but it's all hindsight now.

Not me. Check my old posts.

I was one of the few who kept saying he would prove the doubters wrong. We should have dumped Drew in the offseason and picked up Warner. Oh well.

Before anyone blows a gasket this is not a bash Bledsoe thread. Most all of us agree Drew needs to take a pay cut. Why not use Warner as real leverage to get him to do that. Bledsoe and Warner are basically the same QB. similar age similar style of play both have played poorly the last year and a half both of them

"The St. Louis Post-Dispatch speculates that Kurt Warner's days with the Rams could end on June 1. This happens following the signing of Chris Chandler, who provides depth at quarterback. The team could provide itself with cap relief by releasing Warner, who lost his starting spot to Marc Bulger during the 2003

You really should watch tenis, you only seem to understand the one player who holds the ball in this game, so you should switch to one where there only is one player holding the ball.

Do you think Warner, who has a worse arm and is as sack prone as Bledsoe would do anything different on this Bills team? He gets hurt nearly as much as RJ did too, do you think he would be able to play on our team?

I think playing the sorry ass Browns and having a +3 turnover differential, along with a back that averaged almost 5 yards a carry might have been what decided this game.

You really should watch more football....alot more....since you don't seem to understand what the difference between a good QB and a crap QB is.

If you did know the difference, you would see how Warner made the throws he had to make, how he moved when he had to move, and how he fired up the team when he had to get them motivated....unlike Bledsoe.

Last year Bledsoe looked like a crappy $6 million QB

Last year Kurt Warner looked like a crappy $10 million QB. - With a good OL

And a hand that seemed like it would not heal after nearly 3 seasons

You just undermined your own argument. That's the point. Kurt had an excuse for his poor play. Did Drew have a hurt hand? No.

**Dozerdog** · 09-27-2004, 12:43 AM

What's my argument? You want to pay good money for a QB that stunk behind a good OL and a bum hand?

That makes zero sense.

Congrats that you thought he would pan out. After 2 games last year Bledsoe looked like Joe Montana. Let's see how long Warner keeps it up.

No, I'd rather pay good money for a QB that can't throw, make decisions or move.

That makes alot more sense.

Thanks for the congrats though. Amazingly I do get some things right now and then.

Tennis is calling, you can worship or hate the one guy who is on the TV at all times, so that way you don't have to understand other players, what their role is, and how a team works together.

Boy this is as frustrating as a political discussion.

I don't think anyone here is saying that we are happy with the QB situation as is.

Kurt Warner, Tim Couch, or Jeff Garcia all can get run over with less than 2 seconds to throw.

What we are saying is Kurt Warner was probably the least attractive of any options out there.

Turns out TD was right in avoiding Couch- he couldn't hang on to a job they were willing to give away in Green Bay. (Backup QB) The Browns aren't lighting a fire in the league with Garcia.

Concentrate on what is really killing this team- an OL that is worse than we thought (and we didn't think it was all that great in the first place)
