    My God, let the kid play at least 1 full season before you bury his career. If RW3 is the standard, then every QB outside of Peyton Manning is a failure based on his amazing rooking year.

    And Stouffer, really? What an idiot statement!!! Jake may never be a top tier QB, but he has already surpassed what that clown did in his entire career.

    If the Titans embrace the "mobile QB" offense that others are having success with, then I think you may re-think your "expert" analysis of Jake.

    I guess my "expert" analysis proved to be accurate after all. @IrishDawg22
    Except for one thing: Everyone always cites Locker's natural position as safety. I was standing right next to the guy a couple weekends ago, and he's gigantic. Substantially bigger than almost every pro defensive back I've seen in person (Kam Chancellor exists, but that experiment hadn't played out yet). I'm not so sure he wouldn't have grown into a linebacker had he played defense his entire career.

    Stop plagiarism my shit fucko!!

    You’re right you know.





    Though again, he never would have survived long at LB or safety or his best position (RB) because his body just wouldn’t hold up.

    This thought also crossed my mind. Although I guess on defense you're generally more prepared for the hits you take.

    The Locker not playing QB stuff was stupid. Why would he move? He was a first round pick at QB. That doesn’t mean he was a good college QB because he wasn’t, but he was in the right position. If we had two better QB’s than move him. We didn’t and he was always the best QB on the team.

    Bonnet and Rainbow Ronnie were horrible. Price was a R-Fr Jake’s senior year.

    He didn't have the intellect or mindset to play QB

    To be fair, this was before @irishdawg was dialed in.

    Butt to Roadies point he was five times the QB of anyone else on the roster
