Steeler's backup= Leftwich. Why do we have BJ?

[DallasEast]

I just wish folks would simply call him Brad or Brad Johnson or noodle arm, etc., instead of BJ all the time. It makes the place read like a porno site for pete's sakes...

What if we just call him limp arm?

Good enough. :

I told everyone who would listen......

Johnson sucks!

 

[Asklesko]

Because Jerry thought he was okay with Brad. That is absolutely the only defense you will ever get from him.

Johnson sucks!

The Dallas Morning News is reporting that Brooks Bollinger has officially been moved ahead of Brad on the depth chart. Don't have to worry about Brad anymore. I have been saying for the last two days, Brad has played his last NFL game, unless you want to count holding for kicks and I would not change holders for Folk until next training camp. Don't want to screw up Nick's timing.

Brad will not be a Cowboy next year.

Let the Bollinger bashing begin........:laugh2:

This coaching staff really missed the boat here!

How does Pittsburgh have a Byron Leftwich, who was a high
draft pick with game experience, while we have the walking
"zombie", Brad Johnson?

Talk about a lack of foresight? Even the Giants have a David Carr
to back up Eli.
Why are we dealing with Brooks Bollinger-type players, yet these
other teams are better prepared?

It's OBV that the coaching staff thought they were better than the people on the market.

Leftwich looked pretty good out there, the big knock was his weight and attitude. His arm strength, accuracy, or intelligence was never to be questioned. I wonder if a few years in the league has humbled him a little? He still has potential to be a starter in the future.... Nice pick up by the Steelers

Brad won't be active on game day if he is 3rd string so they will have to find another holder. I really hope this brilliant plan doesn't back-fire!

What QB was there available, at the time of the RW signing, that would have made a difference to the results of the last three weeks.

That question may be better said as what QB could come in here at a moment's notice and perform? I'd have to say in hindsight Culpepper probably could have. But that is an extremely iffy statement.

My point being probably no one could have come in here and played well enough to beat the Giants not knowing the playbook.

The obvious question is why did they go with Brad. The answer is he looked good in preseason and made the throws necessary to manage a game. He just can't do it behind that line and likely not even with a healthy OL.

I don't think Bollinger is the anser either.

Apparently Beck will come here at some point likely offseason and compete for the number two.

And Jerry should take a hard look at his decision making tree when it comes to picking up and drafting QBs.

At this point in time in the NFL you must be able to pass the ball. I don't see any team being able to run the ball down the field consistently without an adequate passing attack. The rules are just too favorable to passing. I think Dallas 93 would have a hard time running without an adequate passing attack if they played now.

There were a significant number of people on this forum in preseason that didn't want Carr, Leftwich, Culpepper, Simms, or others for backup QB. I hope they're satisfied.

I know we messed up going w/ BJ as backup

but Leftwich is horrible! he played outside himself last night, but watch, he's going to go back to the QB that started for Atlanta last year
