This man deserves a shot at a starting position... He came in and threw a TD with a 5-8 completion ratio... NO INTS!

The "D" didn't give back what he made in the second half of the game... Say what you will but CLEO is FAR better than JOEY IMHO!!!
 
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. He played a solid performance for his situation, but he didn't show that he could be a solid starter.

I did enjoy the play calling with him running the offense though. Seems like hes more of Mularkeys fitting at QB. The misdirection stuff and fluidity of the offense worked a lot better with his mobility.
 
He deserves it for the colts game. But we need to draft a young QB. Not some old guy that we'll end up trading or benching because he sucks
 
slow down a sec, pls. he played well - better than joey. but he also made some mistakes that showed his inexperience (throwing into triple coverage on his first attempt, missing a couple of open guys deep on two of those passes to McMichaels, and getting Welker murdered by staring him down the whole time).

The guy looked good, we should definitely start him over Joey "I like to complete 2 yard passes on 3rd and long" Harrington. But let's not anoint this guy the second coming.

I am not saying Lemon is the next Marino. I am saying he is better then Joey right now, and we should give him the start vs the Colts. :wink:
 
he was productive, he should play the whole indy game, he is a FA so we need to determine if we should bring him back
 
I would rather have Cleo start over Joey...we have nothing to lose.
 
Cleo looked good out there tonight and he could defintely compete to be our #2 quarterbabck next year.
 
We can argue all we want about the specifics of Joey's performance and who is to blame for it. But Saban told us a lot in these last two weeks about Joey's performance. When you bench a guy two weeks in a row in the middle of the game, there is some part of you that does not like what you are seeing. Just the fact that he is giving Lemon a shot tells you that Joey has been inadequate no matter how much of it is his fault.

I am not saying he is the second coming of anyone... All I am saying is that he has played better than JOEY in 3 quarters now... I believe that he deserves a chance to start a game...


Also, if it wasn't for the breakdown on the "D" in the second half, this guy would have won this game for us! HE deserves a shot at a full game!!!

The guy looked a whole lot better than Harrington. Don't try to take away from his great game. He missed a few throws, but for the most part he was very effective.

it was a solid performace, and yes he was better then harrington. I like Lemon, don't get me wrong. he did a lot of things i really liked. I just dont think hes a 'starter' ya know? It was a very good perfomrance from him tonight though.
