And losing.

I do not trust or pretend to understand how the Iranians think. I trust that I know a little how the Russians think. I don't think the Russians are insane. I don't think they have too many values that take precedence over their lives and the lives of their entire nation. Sure, we've been close. We know the Russians' limits. Do we know the Iranians'?

The Russians aren't collectively insane. They may be devious and aggressive, but they aren't crazy. I have confidence that the Russians are well aware of MAD. I have no confidence the Iranians or any of the extremist groups do. Also, you can be worried about both. Also, Romney was saying Russia was our biggest geopolitical threat almost 4 years ago, and got sneered at by the current President. You could've voted for that guy with some great risk assessment abilities.

He's been driving impaired for 30 years Jim. At this point, only ruining someone else's life will stop him. What a shame.

I don't want anyone the third best at anything.

GMO's is a non-issue. No human alive today has eaten anything that hasn't been genetically modified. The arguments against GMO's are lacking in substance.

Take it to the Orton detractors thread. Thanks.

Incorrect as always.

Yes necessarily.

Disagree.

That won't happen. It's a one in a million scenario. The defense will be top 10. The difference between a 7-9 season and a 10-6 season will be on the QB position. If that doesn't happen, I'm done with him.

And if it doesn't happen? Can we put him to rest? Or at least, as a Tuel type QB?

How bout a winning record as a starter?

Except Dixon, Hogan, Woods etc.

One more year.

Are there any defensive penalties that have you repeat the down? Besides (before the play) offsides?

It's not inconsequential. Timing plays means that a second off due to a penalty leads to an incompletion, or not enough YAC. Even dump offs, anything can happen, see Ray Rice on 4th and 30. Any penalty that disrupts an offensive player should be an automatic first down. And while it's rare for someone to take a penalty on purpose, I think it's also rare that 3rd and 20s get converted because of a penalty. Sure, it happens, but it's not a plague on the game.

He wanted a full competition for Geno last season. He wanted to bench Geno last season. When has he been patient? By not benching the rookie QB who took his team to the postseason?

EJ being the favorite to win the job is not the same thing as confidence.

Congratulations on being a menace to society and getting lucky that you haven't irreparably harmed somebody else by adding unnecessary risk.

This is why pot shouldn't be legalized. "I drive stoned all the time," is the argument. Christ.

It's also known as the kiss of death seed.

Because he stunk in Washington.

EJ is not a rookie. Hasn't been for almost 2 years now. Pretty wild. Of course. They just spouted that Marrone screwed EJ up and it's all his fault, then said that Marrone knew EJ should sit and learn and he was correct. As long as it supports the legend of 14 games, it's valid.

EJ's ceiling has decreased every game he played. He is now at an Orton potential, and he hasn't even reached that.
