[asuhoopnut]

Per Rotoworld (link below) ..... Toby Korrodi was cut today and Lang Campbell
from William and Mary was signed as the 4th quarterback. Campbell was in the Falcon's camp for 2 weeks before being cut. He previously played in the Arena League.

We're picking up QBs that couldn't make it on a team where their starter is going to prison and Joey Harrington is their only hope for the season? Good god.

GO TRIBE!!!!

Actually, I never went to a W&M game, even when I was attending.

Go Cards

 

[dreamcastrocks]

Not surprised, haven't heard of Campbell though.

Too bad. Korrodi is from my hometown and I was hoping he would develop.

So much for Tango...err 4Devil's theory that Whis told Toby to throw the INT on the first play and that Korrodi could "seamlessly" take over for Leinart down the road.

 

[D-Dogg]

I would have liked to see more from Korrodi in the preseason games. Boyd gets waaaaaay too much time.

 

[mdamien13]

I had hopes for Korrodi but man did he look awful against the Texans!

I miss Preston Parsons - at least he always came in and lit up the 3rd team defenses he played against in the preseason.

Is this confirmed?

I think we have two different memories of Preston Parsons

 

[Camshaft]

I think we should have given korrodi more time. At least we still have the fabulous Shane Boyd.

I was at the game and did not think he looked awful. Yes, he did throw a pick
on his first throw. So what! He only played in a couple of series and looked to have a decent arm and good pocket presence. I was hoping he would at least get signed to the practice squad.

 

[Gila Monster]

darn. I was genuinely rooting for the guy to catch on. After everything in his life, he deserves it.

Here's hoping someone else gives him an opportunity and he becomes a worthwhile backup.

 

[outcent13]

I know it is preseason but why was his first play a pass play. Shouldn't the coaches let him hand it off once or twice to get rid of the jitters?

Preston Parsons never threw a pass in a regular season game.

BTW: He just signed with the Broncos so Where has he been for the last 3 seasons?

Once upon a time, this unsung dude (formerly packing grocery boxes, as legend holds it) made his mark in the Arena League, scrapped his way onto a pro roster and eventually made it to the Super Bowl.

His name: Kurt Warner.

Hmmm.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Did this really need to be a sticky?

Did this really need to be a sticky?

Just wanted people to see the new guy had good stats in both indoor and European football.

 

[40yearfan]

41 TD's in the Arena League. If Lienart gets 41 TD's this year, I think we might better last years won/loss record.
