Terry Bradshaw just said something interesting

[Highlandfire]

He said in todays game with todays scouting and nit picking of QB's he would have been a 3rd or 4th rounder. Thing is, like him or hate him, the cat is one of the best to have ever played the game.

Interesting.

Brian Billick said something earlier interesting as well. He said that with the way the NFL is evolving you need a guy more mobile at QB, BUT first and foremost the thing that will never change is you must make plays IN the pocket I.e. read defenses and deliver strikes.

Just some interesting stuff.

Stopped reading after the title.

srsly tho Bradshaw was an average QB with a great team around him.

Different Decade... he also said he was a pro bowler with like 1800 passing yards. What's expected and needed now is much different.

I would say he was a 'good' QB, not great per say. But you kind of just proved what I have been saying, lets build up this TEAM and see how things go.

That's pretty narrow minded, since Bradshaw is a HOFer with 4 Super Bowl rings. I'm pretty sure he knows what he's talking about when he's evaluating himself as a young QB prospect.

Bradshaw is the worst quarterback to ever win four Superbowls. He can't even hold Marino's jock.

Marino has how many Rings? Oh thats right he could only get to one SB in his entire career.

That's your opinion. As far as I'm concerned, that guy was a stone cold warrior on the football field. I would love to have a young Terry Bradshaw on the Panthers roster right now. He was 5 times the man that Clausen is right now, I promise you that.

In other words, he's Big Ben 1.0

Your opinion...

like how that works?

[monstercat]

Any, the point of the thread is to show just how much scrutiny these kids go through anymore...and the scouts still screw it up half the time.

[Jangler]

Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson have a ring...you saying they are better than Marino?

Well, it was the opinion of Bradshaws' peers that he was pretty damn good. That's why he was voted to pro bowls and elected into the HOF, so you don't need to take my word for it.

I sure as hell don't expect to see Dilfer in the HOF anytime soon.

He was average.

51.9% career completions

212 TDs

210 Ints.

never threw more than 28 TDs in a season.

Average.

It's amazing what a great team and 4 Superbowls will do for revisionist history.
