Saban4prez said:a receiver knows a QB much better then any Defensive player ever would. And rod smith is one of the better ones in NFL history. Not saying hes hall of fame caliber, but hes definitly had a career worth remembering. And although i dislike elway, he was one of the legends, and Smith won two super bowls with him. Smith probably knows what hes talking about.
SkapePhin said:I think it was Al Wilson who praised Feeley saying he would be a good QB.. Are you saying Defensive players know nothing about the players they spend all week and all day trying to defend against? Ya, Rod Smith might have a little more knowledge since he spent more than one game with Gus, but I still wouldnt put much into it.. If I were to ask a Bengals receiver, would he make the same comment? Probably not.

Also, this quote isnt saying much.. "I knew that if I went to the Broncos I wasn't going to have the opportunity to be a starter," Frerotte said. "If I came to Miami, I was going to have that opportunity. That's been my whole career is to go someplace where I get the opportunity to be a starter."
Jake Plummer is dreadful, if he cant beat out Plummer, he is no more than a backup QB, which he is.. We have three backup QBs on the roster. I wish I could be as optomistic as you all, but after watching Gus got TDless in the preseason, save for a fluke play, I cant see him turning into an All-Pro Gunslinger over night.

TeeMoney said:Too bad Miami's receivers wouldn't say good things about Feeley (other than words of sympathy and encouragement). Comparing a defensive players comments about a guy they played one game against with the comments from a wide receiver that spent a couple of years training with the person is just silly, don't ya think?

SkapePhin said:Actually, no. And Feeley's teamates have made similar comments of him in the past. A defensive player pours over tape of a QB, they spend an entire week living and breathing their tendencies and their abilities. Then, after the game, particularly in one where they were victorious they feel the need to heap praise upon the opposing QB? To me thats just as valid as a WR who had limited reps with a QB. Again, ask a bengals WR to comment on Gus, you think he makes the same comments? Keep on dreaming that Gus will become some all-pro in Miami, its not going to happen. These comments from Smith, while a bit encouraging, dont really mean much. Especially since the comment is just "Gus is a gunslinger".. Doesnt say anything about GOOD gunslinger.
Ryan Leaf was a gunslinger too.
