Thread: Why Case Keenum May Turn Out To Be The Steal Of The Century......

I'm on my phone but Kinger said it best.

Good grief. Here comes the comparison card. Did it possibly occur to you that Rick was saying,
without thinking he should have to say it, that if it can happen to the very best, then it can
happen to the likes of Keenum, without putting Keenum on their level?

Gosh sakes, this feels like the Orton years all over again.

Not till we see some fainting goats

We have a bar here in Denver called the Fainting Goat. They had a float in the St Patty's Day parade. I was looking around on it for Orton.

Top my friend, he brought up Rivers and Brees as examples so that is what I was responding to.

So you don't agree that if a QB continues to have the best DVOA in the league, the
second best overall QBR, the best QBR under pressure, and goes to the playoffs with a
12-4 record, that he should be considered maybe a franchise quarterback? Because
that was what I was saying, and only that.

And I qualified it with maybe he will, and maybe he won't.

I don't know whether that kind of thing ever came about about Orton. But it surely
has become another card to draw: the "Orton Card."

Well at least Top is frustrating Gem to. Lol

No you were making an erroneous allusion to his comparison, trying to say he was putting
Keenum on their level. He wasn't. Again, he was saying that if elite quarterbacks such as
they can have bad seasons, then quarterbacks such as Keenum can.

Let me put it this way: If I break my leg and can't run the 40, then maybe my grandmother
can't, if she breaks her leg, either. That's not putting her in my class as a runner.

Ok again I ask, do you think he is a franchise Qb right now? Yes or no?

No, I think I'm the frustrated one, when I say something and you make it to say something else.

That's what happened here. Just read what I write as I have written it. I didn't use any big words.

North, why haven't you done something about your reading comprehension?

Go back to this post and read it very carefully.

Jury is out.

Last year Keenum...almost. Every other Keenum...no.

If we get last years Keenum with a bit more yards and TDs then that is a franchise guy.

Lot's of hopeful ifs.

But I love big words. Do you think Derek Anderson is a franchise Qb? He had one good year and a bunch of mediocre ones.
