JR is a dumb QB that NEVER won a championship. Not great.


why did the dumb QB throw less interceptions than the smart QB's. JR's junior year is very similar to Peyton Mannings

Russell wouldn't be in the top-10 smartest ever.


Nor would

Terry Bradshaw(VY sez I r smrater than u)
Dan Marino(VY sez wut? we hav the saem smratz?)
Peyton Manning
Eli Manning
Tom Brady

The top 10 smartest QBs ever is probably most composed of Ivy League QBs that never did shite.

I think JaMarcus Russell was a smarter QB than Flynn. Flynn threw some astronomically retarded interceptions in 2007 that cost us two games against JV teams and almost cost us at least two more games.

Russell also led us to the same regular season record even though the schedule he played against was 10 times harder.

This is unreal. No wonder someone took my Rockey comparison seriously.

FWIW, I would take Josh McManus over Eric Martin and Eddie Kennison. McManus was a champion, while the other guys just didn't have the heart or intangibles to win.

Well duh that's why he struggled... Jamarcus obviously played for a better line. Had Flynn played behind that line he would have broke every LSU record. Dude was a winner and gritty.

Did anyone ever think that that stats of the QB would be the best stats to look at?
Are you saying that offensive production is not a reasonable factor for comparing QBs?

Because if you are not asserting that absolutely, then your response is completely meaningless. The thread asked for an opinion and a reason. He gave an opinion, and listed several measures by which the 2007 offense outperformed the 2006 offense as the reasons for his opinions regarding the two QBs. So the only way a response like yours that does nothing but raise the question of usefulness of stats would have meaning is to argue that his post fails by not providing a reasonable basis for an opinion.

So, are you arguing that offensive production is not a reasonable basis for comparing QBs?
