Jay isn't an overly run happy QB. He had to move to make plays last year because the Line sucked. Jay can take the ball, roll out a little, and be very accurate.
Using the T.E, and the FB, especially when we have a guy like Konrad on the team, will only help Jay in his check downs.
Gannon's arm isn't any better then Jay's, and they had a pretty good offense the last two years. Also just because Norv's "system" uses a lot of drop back passing, doesn't mean that any one type of QB can, or can't be successful in it. Daunte Culpepper is very successful, both dropping back, and also running with his 260lb frame. It's a drop back system, but he uses both aspects of his skills within it.
Jay is only the most hated QB to ever play in Miami simply because he isn't another Dan Marino. Jay is a (now) third year starter, who is growing and learning new things every year.
His first season he was just getting the hang of it, when he hurt his shoulder. He went 4 games without an INT, and then bammo...torn rotator, and they went through the roof.
2001, he had no O line, and no running game, he had to learn through the first half of the season not to try and win games all by himself. He cleaned it up, and played MUCH smarter in the second half. Now we have him signed up for 1.3 mill this season. I don't care what you say, 1.3 million, with the "easy out" for the Dolphins is a very fair deal for Miami...regardless if Jay had even tried the FA market.
Also Washington was going to make a serious run at Jay if he did hit the open market. The Bengals would have also looked seriously at him.
I personally would be swearing at my TV if Fiedler went to another team, and played well, while we struggled with either Cade, or Lucas...wouldn't you?
Let's just let the whole Jay thing go unil he either proves the supporters right, or blows it and makes all of you bashers look like prophets. Because all the talk in the world is not going to end this debate...period.
