Rate Drew's season

[Mike 1967]

(Staubach was a better QB by far, just so you don't think I'm going there)

OK...just making sure :nono2:

Drew has done a good job and like mentioned over and over in this thread, if our offensive line were better he'd be having a better season. Although some of the blame for the sacks and turnovers are a direct result of Drew's style of play rather than offensive line problems. There have been a lot of times where he has simply held the ball way too long waiting to hit the deep ball instead of going to someone underneath or throwing it away.

He would get a solid B in my book. Didn't expect a world-beater, but expected far worse compared to what he's done so far.

Sure-his hold on to the ball and imobility issues can drive anyone nuts, but he's really hung in there for us all season and made some key plays.

Frankly-if our Ts were a bit bitter, the personality of our O would have changed tremendously too.

Yep...true.

And if the Julius Jones of last weekend had been the Julius Jones all season....things would have been better for Drew as well.

IMHO-sure, our OL aren't world-beaters, but nonetheless have seen worse OLs do GREAT(i.e. that 02 Tampa team that won the Super Bowl was worse than our's AND used a more complex scheme to boot).

What Tuna did to fix the blocking last week must have worked-but wished he did that in training camp.

I loved Danny White, to this day he has been over-looked for what he was for the Cowboys. Just like Mcknabb one day, if you knock on the door it means nothing, you have to knock the door down, and slap the fat lady.

The worst situation for any player to be is in the shoes of a legend as well-'cuz they're never going to match the predecessor's success.

A good QB... not HOF caliber at this point. He's a rich man's "Vinny".

 

[big dog cowboy]

Wow got Danny and Vinny both worked into this thread.

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Its hard to give a high grade and I will tell ya why... A veteran QB that cannot tuck the ball away when in trouble really bothers me

 

[jg1411]

Too Much of a spread between an "A" or "B" rating but I would say he has come closer to an "A" ! first of all he has come thru on many 3rd down and longs to continue drives that went no where with running plays on 1st an second downs---Yes he lost a game or two with bad plays But he has done MORE than his share to get the team to nine wins (SO FAR!) and he was not the only one that lost the six games! I realize he is NOT the best quarterback in the game but I think he is a VERY good value for the money he is NOW getting from Dallas! How many quarterbacks making Bledsoe type money are playing BETTER than him?? I think he joined the Cowboys (and Parcells) leaving money on the table to help build a team that he could play and win with!!! I would rather pay and play Bledsoe and provide quality teammates than have Peyton Manning getting 20-25 percent of the payroll!

 

[StarMan2112]

I gave him a B. Had we protected him better it might have been an A. First legit QB we've had since Aikman left.

 

[jterrell]

A couple of untimely fumbles and two bad decisions cost him an A season.

He reminds me alot of Aikman with his accuracy, arm strength and courage in the pocket. Not as good a decision maker as Aikman.

Comparing him to Aikman in his prime is unfair tho. Drew is now 33.

 

[John813]

I gave him a B but I would of given him a B+
