It seems time for this thread.
1st let me say we won a hard fought game today and I was very impressed with Norv Turner. He desrves a game ball. After the Giants shut Ricky down he was still able to find a way to run the ball. It was nice to see that we actually do have other weapons than Ricky. Of course the threat of Ricky is a weapon all by itself. Anyway, great win now on to the quarterback position.
Fiedler did not play great today but he did make some tough throws and some good decisions. Although for the season he hasn't seemed as sharp as the first five games of last season. I do still like Fiedler, however I would love to hear what you guys think the pros and cons would be of Fiedler and Griese respectively running our offense.
Fiedler:
Pros - good scrambler, accurate in short and intermediate passes, can throw accurately on the run, respected by his teamates, usually makes good quick decisions and doesn't dwell on his mistakes, 2nd year in Turner offense.
Cons - Doesn't have the arm for a consistent long ball, makes some key poor decisions every game, throws too many ints.
Griese:
Pros - good long ball, good in the pocket, probowl quarterback so will be respected by the team if he quarterbacks.
Cons - 1st year in Turners offense and wasn't here for entire training camp, doesn't scramble well, became introverted in Denver when he didn't perform well which affected the team.
P.S. I don't really know enough about Griese so I'm sure you guys will shed some more light on this.
FIRE AWAY!!
