Greybeard Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 All those hours he's been putting in...all the talk of him hanging out with Wyche and working around the clock and carrying a briefcase, and WHAT? Some see an amazing catch by Parrish and I see a poorly thrown ball by a guy who shouldn't be throwing a ball that poorly. And two picks? And four sacks? Where's the elusiveness? Where's the strong arm? Where's the JP we've all been waiting for? This kids getting some big bucks and he better start getting it together now because we don't have any time to waste. It's bad enough we've got a left tackle getting spun around like a NYC subway turnstile. J Mac better have something up his sleeve at that spot because it's obvious JP has enough problems trying to throw a football in practice, let alone worrying about his blind side all season. Damn. 394472[/snapback] You know what they say about book learning versus practical experience.
mead107 Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 football is like sex , no one is very good the first time ---- practice ----pratice ---- pratice JP will be ok at game time . that is why we have training camp .

God, all this performance anxiety... why, I wish the season would never get here. Going to sleep filled with dissapointment once again. Sigh!

Damn. 394472[/snapback] I said it quite some time ago...I expect Losman to fall flat on his face. I'm disappointed to see I was right. But then, what do you expect from a guy who pronounces his name "loss-man"?
kota Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Well considering JP has been in a film room and hasn't been in pads since January i wouldn't worry about it much. he was probably anxious and nervous the first practice but it seems he got things under control by the night practice. Also, you have to consider the fact that he is going against the #2 ranked defense in the league. I really doubt he would go out there an light it up the first time out there. If he did i would be worrying about our defense. I am somewhat glad he struggled early against a great defense. He will only improve against them. 4-5 weeks of practice against the number 2 defense will put him miles ahead of any other 2nd year QB out there.
kota Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Moulds is Moulds. Everyone knows what he can do so nobody comments on it. Everyone is focused on JP, Evans, Parrish, and Willis. Besides Moulds getting no attention from the media is good. It will force defenses to look at Evans and Parrish. Less doubleteams for Moulds means bigger numbers for him.
nodnarb Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 I'm surprised at you, too, bro. I thought for sure by now you'd recognize my sarcasm. 394571[/snapback] Ah, nuts. I've been away from the board for so long I've lost my touch. I shoulda known. Sorry for doubting you. Never again.

Fan in San Diego Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 All of this angst, before the first scrimmage game. Sheesh guys. This is why we have training camp, to shake off the rust and get cohesive. It takes time. It's waaaay to early to be passing out the koolaid.

Beerball Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Things are digital now. 394563[/snapback] Yup, that's gonna leave a mark.
eball Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 jiminy christmas. there are a lot of fish with big freaking hooks hanging out of their mouths around here. too funny.
Billsgirl Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I wish everyone would stop freaking out, or y'all are going to have nervous breakdowns before the first scrimmage game even gets here. Yeah, JP isn't amazing right now. I'm a big supporter and I didn't even expect him to dazzle everyone at mini-camps. He did his homework in the offseason and prepared mentally, but now you need to let him adjust to this team physically. HE'S GOING AGAINST THE NUMBER TWO DEFENSE. We lost ONE guy. They are still going to be tough. With some guys adjusting on O-Line, some new and old receivers trying to get back into it, and a new starter quarterback, I don't think they look all bad going against such a tough defense that is NOT holding back in practice. They already mean business. If JP can start playing well against our defense, he'll be fine. But he isn't going to do it over night. As for Moulds, he looked really good in practice, but most people prolly aren't saying anything because we already know about him. We know he can catch the ball and make some plays. There are some new guys people were more interested to hear about over him, but that doesn't mean lets cut him now. I saw him make some great catches yesterday afternoon. And if this whole thread is sarcasm, then sorry, because I'm new here and I still don't get y'all's sarcasm yet. I'm working on it.
Mile High Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 And if this whole thread is sarcasm, then sorry, because I'm new here and I still don't get y'all's sarcasm yet. I'm working on it. 394915[/snapback] Um yeah I'm not new here and I still don't get the sarcasm.
