November 17, 200619 yr Please tell me this is a joke. If it isn't, do you see the defense dropping eight into every pattern when you watch UK games? I believe having a weak run game makes it harder to pass...
November 17, 200619 yr Brohm is a good quarterback, but wasn't he a Heisman candidate going into this year? He certainly hasn't lived up to that.
November 17, 200619 yr Brohm has what...6 TD passes this year? How many games did he miss? Okay I looked..he missed two games. I''m not sure who's the overall better QB...but we definetly know who's having a better year. :lol:
November 17, 200619 yr Brohm is a good quarterback, but wasn't he a Heisman candidate going into this year? He certainly hasn't lived up to that. Is that really a surprise? He has a cadaver's achilles in his knee and a ligament reattached in his thumb over the past 13 months. How do you project Woodson with the same hill to climb. This argument is becoming a joke...
November 17, 200619 yr I think it was clear they wanted to knock the rust off before WVU and Rutgers if he could go. Since it should be clear you watched the UC and Cuse game, what are your thoughts on his performance??? I didn't say I watched the games. I saw bits and pieces of them. Considering he put the ball up 37 times against Cincy, I think you can put the bad hand excuse to rest. The against Cuse, he had a good completion percentage, but not much yardage and no tds against a team that has struggled this year. Against WVU, he had a ton of yards, but again, only 1 td. But I know what you're going to say. "The ran the ball for all the tds that they got." That may very well be, but your question was about his performance. I'd maybe give him a 70/100.

He wasn't going deep much on UC, but he was forced to throw. And that was because like everyone not named Steve Slaton (and maybe Ray Rice), it's very hard to run on the UC D. This is my point. A stat sheet is very easy to use, but hard to grasp if you didn't see the game more often than not. Trust me, I know. Brohm took what both UC and Cuse gave him, and won the game at about 75-80% health. Maybe it's just me, but I rate guys that do that pretty high on the scale of players I want on my team...

How do you project Woodson with the same hill to climb. This argument is becoming a joke... But earlier we heard that Brohm was indeed healthy and if he comes out he'd be a first round pick. It can't be both, which is it?
November 17, 200619 yr But earlier we heard that Brohm was indeed healthy and if he comes out he'd be a first round pick. It can't be both, which is it? Let's face facts. If Brohm was as concerned with his NFL career as some seem to be, he wouldn't be back out there at 75-90%...
November 17, 200619 yr Let's face facts. If Brohm was as concerned with his NFL career as some seem to be, he wouldn't be back out there at 75-90%... Look back at this thread. When talking about draft position there were at least 2 diehard Bird fans that pronounced Brohm as healthy after the UC game. What is it?
November 17, 200619 yr Look back at this thread. When talking about draft position there were at least 2 diehard Bird fans that pronounced Brohm as healthy after the UC game. What is it? Healthy enough to play? Sure. Healthy? No chance...
November 17, 200619 yr So what you're saying is that Brohm would've thrown 15 tds in those two games? That's how many he trails by. That's pretty impressive. He's only thrown 6 in 7 games, but in those 2 games he was going to throw 15 if he had played? Is that what you're saying? So let me get this straight so as long as someone has better stats that they must be the better player? Because that is what you seem to be getting at here, and I must say wow that is a very interesting perspective.... So I guess though like in the NFL Romo the Cowboys QB must be the 2nd best QB in the whole league then, because I mean since he has been starting he has had the 2nd best passing rating in the NFL only being behind Manning. So going by the stats this guy must be better than Brady, McNabb, Brees, Palmer, River, etc... So is that what you are saying, in how better stats must mean they are the better QB. Because that is what I think you are saying. So is that what you are saying?

Throwing 4 times as many touchdown passes as another player with similar attempts cannot.

November 17, 200619 yr A passer rating can be achieved in limited opportunities. Throwing 4 times as many touchdown passes as another player with similar attempts cannot. So throwing more td passes automatically makes them the better QB? Give me a break...Im sure Joe Montana wasn't leading the league every year in td passes, and that someone was throwing more than him, but does that mean that QB was better than him? I know Woodson is a UK player and us UK fans always want to stick up for our players, and definitely dont want to say a UL player is better than a UK player. And I mean Woodson has had an unbelievable year, and his stats are definitely better than Brohm. But I am a UK fan and really dont like UL at all, but be realistic people, Brohm right now is still the better QB than Woodson. Now if Woodson keeps improving all the time like he did this year, then yeah he could one day be better than Brohm but he is still not better than him yet...

Go back and look it up, did anyone in the NFL EVER throw 4 times as many touchdown passes as Montana in similar attempts. I can save you the trouble, nope.
