JP Losman is another former 1st round QB. He stands at 6'3 220 lbs. Primarily a pocket passer, he's thrown 33 TDs and 34 INTs. He's never been in a playoff game and has a winning percentage of .323.

He has never had a Steve Smith, a Mushin Muhammad or a Stephen Davis either. He has also never had a tandem like Williams and Stewart.

Numbers alone only tell the whole story to people who don''t have a clue what they are looking at to begin with. Numbers are half the story at best.

And again, maybe if numbnuts Marty Hurney hadn't bet the farm on Julius landing us the motherload, we would not have to be shopping on the clearance aisle.

I am happy they are looking.

He had a Lee Evans and Eric Moulds. He also had a young McGahee. The guy got benched for Holcomb and Edwards. The numbers dont lie. If he came here it would be David Carr 2.0. We need a new QB, but is JP Losman really the answer? Why dont we DRAFT our own stud instead of thinking we can fix somebody else's bust?

I'm not saying I disagree with your general idea, but I don't know if anybody can be that bad... Carr was a mental case from day one.

I think right now I would rather see us draft a lower round QB prospect than pick up some FA that hasn't made it somewhere else... but who knows, the next star is out there somewhere.

I'd prefer to draft our own bust or stud personally.

true.

i'm not sold on the idea of rushing out to find a replacement for jake right away but losman is not the answer in either case.

those jumping at any and every available QB is aiming too low and letting emotion cloud good judgment. blind hatred for jake is just as bad as blind loyalty...maybe even worse.

    • his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen. 
    • Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.
    • Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
