    And Rivers. I thought Rivers would have a chance to develop, but if AJ is already getting in there, I am not so sure Rivers gets a shot barring injuries to others. CLM has shown he will alternate situationally, so he may just plan on using AJ for plays where a run option QB is his desire, and Rivers as basically Metts replacement next year. CLM loves him some run QB inside the 10, and actually becomes predictable there re: play calling (would like to see them get back to using the TE there). If AJ can truly do it all, as purported, i.e. is a skilled pass first QB, then Rivers and Bolden may not get a chance.

    Remember the Crowton days when certain players would run on the field and everyone would know what play was coming? I'd hate to see that.

    This is exactly the point. You don't want a green backup QB. Look what happened to Lee. He was always going to get clean up duty this season. Might as well let him take some meaningful snaps as well. A 3rd&1 near the opponents goal line is the perfect time to bring him in. It gives him pressure to get a first down but worst case he can't cause too much damage to the team.

    Dual threat qb's at penn state have to pitch and catch instead of run and gun.

    At first, I giggled at this, but then I felt bad about it. It's really not funny. :(

    Your right attack. What that bastard did to those kids was plain sick. And the staff that new it was going on and tried to cover it up should be in jail also.

    Wasn't trying to be judgmental towards you...just explaining my own thought process.

    Sometimes laughter is part of the healing process though. For a lot of people when things are too ... sick for them to cope with it, the only way to cope with that knowledge is to make a joke about it.

    You shouldn't feel bad, it's natural.

    A friend once told me, "Life's too short. If you can't laugh at yourself....call me up. I'll come over and laugh at you !!!" :)
