Smith may be released on Monday or Tuesday. This kid and he is a kid has a lot of the t word potential. I would bring him in for a lok see. As a second string behind Blake. He has experiance and has been very good at times. What doi you all think? Woth a shot?

No. Not even worth the plane ticket. I'd rather have Preston Parsons. We've shown that this coaching staff is unable to develop talent in the quarterback position.

Um... Jake Plummer got WORSE over his time as a starting QB. When was the last time that you said, "Well, McCown might not look like much right now, but wait until Geep Chryst gets a hold of him. Watch out, Mike Vick!" Chris Griesen never learned anything during his tenure here. Is there a QB that got better during his stay? In recent memory?

Potential....

Hmmm....

Potential Potential Potenial.

(mulling over)

Po-Tential.

Poten-Tial.



I agree. That is a "T" word.

Let's sign him.

No Jake didn't get worse, he just didn't get any better.

I think, like usual, you are jumping the gun. Plummer sucked to begin with, and probably will always suck. And it's not like we have had the talent at the QB position, until one real green Josh McCown was drafted.

Time will tell, but Plummer is not a good example. He worked with Trestman for 2 years, and made Trestman look like an idiot.....we all know how that turned out.

Hence, he had nowhere to go but up, and he didn't. He's stinking it up in NFL Europe as we speak. Thus, he did not 'develop'. He was a turd that stayed a turd, and did not turn into prime rib or even "goulash surprise".

Others?

Dave Brown......

Jake Plummer......

Hell, I can't even think of anyone else who's been here the last 4 years or so, they've been so unmemorable. There was that dude who wore #9 that was on the practice squad a year but they didn't even play him in preseason.

Speekin of Strip clubs- Did you know that Portland has more Strip Clubs than any other city?

Per Capita (spelling???) that is.

Well you can't turn a turd into a sundae, or whatever the expression is. The Giants couldn't turn Dave Brown into anything at all, and I don't think anyone could.

Sometimes subpar talent never gets better, I think that you understand that.

Whether it's the talent evaluation, the coaching, or both, something hasn't been working at the QB spot.

I'll freely admit I'm not a Geep Chryst fan. I'd have fired him this offseason if I was King For a Day.
