Geno is NOT the mirror image of any of those probowl/hof/super bowl qb's. He has good (not great) mobility and a great arm. I hope under the guidance of MM and his professional approach to the game he can continue to work his way into a poor man Aaron Rodgers. He has a long way to go to reach PMAR (poor mans aaron r) but he has the arm strength and mobility already he just needs more time to make mistakes and improve his decision making.

Do you actually know how nasty you come across? And arrogant? It's like you verbally slap people and say, "I hope you don't interpret that as assault!" It is a public forum so you are welcome to argue and debate, of course, but I would suggest getting used to hostile replies if you are yourself hostile.
Now this is one of the most persuasively argued, cogent, coherent, and reasonable posts you've made. I think some peeps problem is that you attack rather than either debate or converse (or, for my part, I mostly read and joke around.... I only post a little once in a while). As an aside, I think many people do not get the concept behind these sort of threads. from my POV they are an interesting exercise in seeing if any past mold of greatness can be applied to a developing player. If none of them fit then either the player is very unique (not bloody likely but possible) or quite possibly fits another mold better.... Bust. It is absolutely correct to say that it is too early to judge. However, these players are being evaluated constantly by their coaches, so this isn't exactly without precedent. And anyway, this is a forum for discussion. Ya gotta discuss stuff or I get bored.....
Well 4 sure it is not JWN. Maybe Mark S since just like Mark S he lacks FB smarts JMHO. Oh yes IMHO he also lacks that "it" factor that is needed to be a franchise QB sorry to say :sad:
JWN rookie season did not play in first game first nine games played Record 4-4-1 Final season record 5-8-1 I guess JWN lacked the football smarts and didn't have the "it" factor to be a franchise QB either
Sorry to bust your bubble but JWN had that "it" factor from the second his foot hit the field. I would suspect that U never saw JWN play live & in person from the tone of your reply :sad:
I would suspect that you are wrong as usual since I was at his first game in 65 as well as two Titan Thanksgiving games and the first Jet home game at the Polo Grounds... For that first season JWN had more of an int factor...but he developed into a great player. Sadly since he retired he has developed into a bitter old guy who hates the Jets almost as much as you do
I would advise U to keep your humble opinions to youirself since they are totally incorrect. JWN & I are DISAPPOINTED that in the 44 years since that SB win we have stunk up the NFL & those are facts & cannot be denied. Oh yes do a google & I think U will find that in 65 they were playing in Shea since I had season tickets that year to the games :sad:
When he's on his game, he reminds me a lot of David Garrard in his prime. Good runner, strong arm, and black. When he's off, he reminds me of Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite.
