Going to Lindley doesn't look so stupid right now

1 half and he has a picksix of course but you can see the arm and he's been way more accurate than Skelton even his misses are at least in the area.

And for the first time since Kolb got hurt we're using the TE again, even more than Kolb did.

NO idea if this is real or just a one half fluke but he looks pretty good so far.

First thing that impresses me is he's not staring down his receivers nearly as badly as he did last week. Really looks confident, he's making up his mind and letting it rip. Sometimes to his detriment like the picksix, but he's not hesitant and again while he's not a veteran looking guys off he's not the rookie staring at one guy every play like he was last week.

nice improvement so far.

I'm sure the rams will throw him some wrinkles and hopefully we'll run the ball too it's nice to have Beanie out there again.

Hell I'm even happy with Floyd he made a GREAT play diving to get out of bounds on the FG drive.

As stated it is only one good half of ball and that includes a rookie mistake but he certainly seems to be a breath of fresh air.

Agreed. He looks pretty good so far. He missed Fitz a couple time though, one of which would have probably been a TD. I'm mostly looking at his accuracy, so I don't like those two throws, but generally, so far, so good.

Well he does give us a better chance to get a higher draft pick. Ugh!

Wisenhunt is under .500 as a head coach. He may be smart, but he sure doesn't seem to have much common sense.

Whiz was lucky and got to carry Warner's jockstrap for a couple years.

If losing Horton is a possibility, fire whiz and promote horton

Would rather have Skelton. And New QB/OC/OL coaches

I think Lindley has a better arm and throws with more accuracy. But he's a rookie, and so far doesn't seem to have the ability to throw the touch passes.

Obviously the picksixes were killers but I think his upside is better than Skelton because he's more accurate. Not saying he's our guy but if I can only keep one of those 2 I keep Lindley not Skelton.
