    After preseason game:
    =================================================
    RFIP

    Said Bortles was outstanding, the best of the bunch, dropped well, planted threw from the pocket with timing…only negative was “his delivery appeared a tad slow..”

    Logan Thomas; “There aren’t 10 guys in the NFL who can “throw it” like this guy but nobody will talk about him because they say he should switch to TE but he’s really taken to NFL coaching, his drops are much improved, no wasted steps..”

    He killed Manzeil. “He’s the same guy he was in college….doesn’t read progressions though at A&M he wasn’t taught that…he took 4 vicious hits in week 1 and played the entire game “noticing the defenses color” so he ran when he should not have…on his 16 yard run he had a wide open crosser who, if he had thrown the ball, would still be running….he’s under 6′ so I’m not sure he CAN see further down field..”

    Bridgewater; “Wasn’t good. Played scared, the game was too fast for him…we all know he doesn’t have the arm talent to drive the ball, especially from a muddy pocket and he showed that too….took a big hit and fumbled when he didn’t have too…he showed what most of us thought he was at QB…unathletic with not a good NFL arm…”

    I heard Cosell on local sports talk radio yesterday. basically what was shared on WV’s post from RFIP, no patience in the pocket, lousy progression readys, doesn’t see open receivers.

    Important for us, as we start against the Vikes. I’d hate to see us face not only AP but a killer young QB.

    Ponder sucks and, if TB sucks as well, that will be good for us.

    And for those of us who live here in Minny and loathe the Vikings … it’ll be nice long term.

    By virtue of the absurd ...

    not sure i’d take any of these qbs over bradford.

    next year might be a different story though. supposed to be some good prospects coming up.
