Dude, if you're referring to me, you'd better go back to bed, wake up again, and start over. I challenge you to find any post where I've been a "hugger" or a "hater", ever. I was curious about the contradiction between our camp observers and what Bedard posted on his blog.
I saw enough of Feeley last year to lead me to this conclusion: the jury is out. I don't know why neither you "haters" or "huggers" can't accept that some people just haven't seen enough to make up their mind. On the one side, you "haters" are really underplaying the effect that a lack of a running game and horrid OL protection, and inexperience had on the guy, you likewse wholly ignore the obvious improvement in his game as the season went on. On the other hand, the "huggers" want to look only at his laser throws and overlook his tendency to stare down his receiver, his lack of poise, lack of touch, and all the ints. Both camps need to face this fact: he's a developing QB. He's shown enough to warrant NOT throwing him out the window, but he hasn't demonstrated that he's a starting calibre QB. You guys can make arguments either way, but you're not convincing anyone who has a modicum of sense to understand this type of evaluation takes time. I want the best QB to start. Period. In light of the #2 we gave up, it would obviously benefit us if that QB was Feeley, but if he's not the best, then that's the way it is. 'Aight?
