He is good in the preseason. Melting in the regular season. Plus, He is might better then Favre, so he won’t be able for the Jags.
How about Rosenfels?

The Jags have been there, done it. Enough.

Paul Smith has made improvements? I’m sure the guy knows his stuff, but as far as size of a pro qb, athletic ability of pro qb and ARM STRENGTH, he’s lacking in all three. I know he’s a smart kid, he just can’t throw the ball faster than 5 mph. I’m sure he’ll be going back to the squad when the cuts are made. We should also look at the chiefs, I’m hoping Thigpen gets waived.

I like to think Tavaris Jackson is mediocre but improving. While you can criticize the 1:1 ratio and other turnover stats we have to keep in mind “the glass is half full” side too!

In 06 he was projected as mid-to-late pick, and was drafted way up in the 2nd round because he has all the physical tools and NFL QB needs, not because he was “ready” or “steady”. This guy NEVER should have been starting in 06 & 07. In 07 the Vikings passing game was 2nd worst in the league, but the WR’s were poor, and IMHO at least he didn’t screw up enough to prevent them from going 8-4.

His “tentativeness” is an issue, as is caving in pressure situations, but putting that in perspective, the “backup” I want should have some things to learn. Remember how long it took Garrard to evolve; he had confidence issues too. If that’s your biggest problem, and you excel in other areas, I’ll take it.

However much Paul Smith has matured I don’t see how he’ll ever be good enough. Whereas TJ has also shown he can play a good game in the NFL, and he has the arm to make fast NFL throws, throws on the move etc… he may not be like Vick but he can scramble & run a bit too, and that helps.

BTW the last time todd Boauman did anything in the NFL was in 2005 – and he put up a
55.7 completion percentage, throwing 2 TD and 7 interceptions…. I think we forget that talent does matter, despite the mistakes of the Shack era.

Tavaris Jackson is far from perfect, but he’s also almost exactly the type of guy who could excel with a change of scenery.

This is a no brainer! Apparently Jax has a outstanding QB coach. David has continued to get better no thanks to the O-Line, WR’s corps, nor the Offensive Coordinator. And I’m not kicking those guys, but as a whole the O-Line needs to step up, the WR’s need to get open (lol), and OC damn I can see whats next. So to TJ being the backup in Jax is a perfect fit. I don’t remember the Vikes being a threat when TJ was off the field. And here’s the food for thought. What if, say, you and the woman that you are in love with decides to get married after three years of dating. All you talk about is how wonderful life is going to be with her as your wife. But shes gold digger whose daddy is rich. All she has talked about for the last year is what you haven’t done. And on top of that shes constantly talking about an OLD boyfriend and how he does it. Then the OLD boyfriend moves to the same town to work. Now, what idiot would want to marry that tramp??? Keep your head up TJ. Come walk on the beach with Jacksonville.
