NYs Stepchild Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 it's a good thing Kelly only kept 2 qb' son the roster one of which is an eggshell That's why I predicted Tebow to be back on the roster at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 no one called Brees an injury waiting to happen. He was hurt once and had teams interested in him Yeah, but they did call him a midget and were not sure if his shoulder was healed. Any team that gives Bradfird more than a one year deal is nuts. Call me nuts. In fact, when gambling on players with injury raps I think you want to lock them up. If he has two injury free seasons in a row he is going to get.. .dare I say... Russell Wilson money!

He isn't going to sign anywhere else, so as long as you are okay with him as your #3 QB, it is like having a 54th man on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detectivekimble Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 He has played in all 16 games twice in his 5 year career. Maybe he figures that he is due. He isn't the most durable guy, but the Rams didn't exactly do a good job of protecting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Yeah, but they did call him a midget and were not sure if his shoulder was healed. I am 5' 9" and I have met Dree Brees several times. He is at most 5'10.5". His listed 6 foot height is hysterical. I look him directly in the eyes.

drdetroit Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Jeff Fisher is the most overrated coach in the NFL. He is so well spoken though that people think he can actually coach, I agree he is very overrated. The media loves him. Rex sucks because he can't develop a qb but Fisher can flop with the Vince Youngs, Sam Bradfords and now Nick Foles and it's not his fault.

bergenjets Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 The guy has a career rating of 79 and has completed 58% of his passes. Why all the gushing over a few preseason snaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why all the gushing over a few preseason snaps? because he did that playing with no running game, no wRs, and in a division with the Seahawks, 9ers, and our own Todd Bowles defense (cards). he had a 2:1 int ratio and 59% comp despite the above factors.

Most of his numbers were before Bowles was in that division and before the Seahawks or Niners became relevant. I'm pretty sure he was QBing the year the Seahawks won the NFCW at 7-9. I'm not trying to say he is Ryan Leaf, but I'd think long and hard before hitching my wagon to him over the long term. The last thing the Jets needs is a contract with big guaranteed money for a player who has bones made from balsa wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirorob Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 A QB getting sacked and fumbling and getting hurt trying to recover the ball is a fluke play?? The way someone landed on his shoulder was a fluke play. You can see a hundred pile ups and no one has that happen to their shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggin94it Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 If this guy makes it through the season injury free and hits the market I would expect the Jets to make a strong push at him. They'll definitely have the cap room to sign anybody they want again. If he makes it through the season injury free he'll be franchised; Eagles aren't letting him hit the market as a FA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Seems like the Bradford love has died down a little bit since this thread. T0mShane drafted him in the JN Mafia Forum Fantasy League really early. He said "If Bradford stays upright, I win the league." Yep. That happened.

Integrity28 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 It's funny everyone talked the same about Brees before he signed with the Saints, and I don't think he missed a game since due to injury. jinx^^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 because he did that playing with no running game, no wRs, and in a division with the Seahawks, 9ers, and our own Todd Bowles defense (cards). he had a 2:1 int ratio and 59% comp despite the above factors. Actually that's not true. Just because recently they've had some good defenses in the division doesn't mean that it was hard on Bradford since he missed most of those tough matchups. So statistically it should have worked out in Bradford's favor, having missing most of those tough division games. In those few he didn't miss, he typically played poorly. Seattle: He has only played in 2 games since the Seahawks became the top defensive team, both coming in 2012, and Bradford bad games in both outings. The only reason they won one of them is Russell Wilson threw 3 picks and 0 TDs plus Zuerlein somehow made FGs of 48, 58, and 60 yards (as well as a 24 yarder) that game. Arizona: the first 3 years of Bradford's career - 42 of his 49 games with the Rams - the Cardinals had either a meh or awful defense. As a rookie, Arizona had like the 30th ranked defense and he had bad to awful outings in both of those games as well. In 2011 they were meh and his combined stats against them were again bad. In 2012 Arizona was a train wreck (Bradford faced them twice during their 9 game losing streak), and though he posted 2:1 TD:INT ratios in both wins he also had laughable completion percentages of 33% and 47%. SF: In 2011 the 49ers had the #2 defense but Bradford missed both of those matchups to injury. When SF had an average defense in 2010 he played them twice and put up good but not great stats. So Bradford didn't play against as many tough divisional defenses as you'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Here's another tidbit fact: Bradford's TD:INT ratio didn't get acceptable (21:13 in 2012, then 14:4 in 2013) until Brian Schottenheimer became his OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYs Stepchild Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 If he makes it through the season injury free he'll be franchised; Eagles aren't letting him hit the market as a FA Bradford may make it through the season, but only because he throws the ball away at the first sign of pressure. It won't be long until he's benched. I'm not sure but I don't think a backup QB has ever been franchised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
