ESPN KC Joyner 8/23 Chat Wrap... 4 'boys

[theogt]

The problem with this statement is your assuming that the national media does their research. Campbell has all the physical tools and seemingly, the intangibles and the college history of success at a big school and that's why he is a prototypical franchise QB. The media looks at it, and says, hey, that's normal for a young QB and we've seen this road walked a lot, and he has all the advantages in the world, so he'll do great.

Romo is far too unknown to make anybody comfortable. Sure, he put up a big QB rating, but he also coughed up the ball 15 times to his 6 TDs those last couple of games. So, not having much of an opinion on him before this season, they'll naturally be slightly more gunshy as he doesn't have the physical tools and draft reports that Campbell does.

Huh? In his last couple of games he put up 3 TDs and 1 INT. But yeah, he did put up a QB rating of 111.6 and 89.6 in those last couple of games.

 

[flashback]

Ben must get all his news at Extremeskins.

15 times to 6 TDs in his last five or six. 8 INTs and 7 fumbles lost. That's the stat I read. Couple wasn't supposed to mean literally two games.

In his last 5 games he had 7 TDs, 6 INTs, and 2 fumbles lost.

It might help if you did your research.

:laugh2:

If Campbell ever played anywhere near as good as Romo did last year, Extremeskins would overload the innernets.

The back of Campbell's jersey is going to get introduced to Ware's facemask several times this year. Can't wait.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

no, Firehawk

COME BACK!!

Couple wasn't supposed to mean literally two games.

That's the definition of couple.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

That's the definition of couple.

Sorry for using casual reference in conversation! Excuse me! What is the exact definition for a bunch, group and gaggle? Just so we're all on the same page here...

I know he lost two in the detriot game, so I doubt he lost just two fumbles. I know he put the ball on the ground four times that game. Again, I'm not debating whether it's a slump or not, just that it was that he was perceived to have slumped, and that causes the apprehension on proclaiming Romo the next thing.

*edit* I think I see what you are thinking. You are including the Seattle game I believe in the 5 games. I was only including reg season. But that still doesn't explain the chasm in fumbles lost. I'm looking into it.

Dig into it all you like. He only lost 3 fumbles all season. It's okay to simply admit that you were misinformed.

:laugh2: a couple means 2, that page would be from the English language

btw, one of those fumbles in the Detroit game turned into a 1st down, thanks to Romo's playmaking ability

Yeah, like, a couple.

 

[firehawk350]

In case anyone reads this (since it doesn't seem anybody is on this thread at this point), I was wrong, he had 7 fumbles the last 5 reg season games, not lost 7 fumbles. So I must have misunderstood the source. My fault.

Here's couple so you can use it correctly.

Now that I gave you the site look up bunch, group and gaggle. Let me know if any of them are defined as 2.

When you say I need a couple of socks how many do you grab ? 2 ? 3 ? 4 ?

Confusedone say: "Fumbling the ball around once per game is not good, no matter how many of them you actually lose to the opponent."
