Poll question

I dont know about top 5 Qbs, your talking Manning, Brady, Manning, Rivers, Palmer (this could be up for discussion but lets not hijack the thread)

But he still deserves the start~

I can't help this: Brees has to be on the list ahead of most of those.

Thig should and will be our qb this season. He really needs to beef himself up - get some meat in those shoulders/arms. I'm afraid one of these times he's gonna get blindsided and thats all folks. Not that couldn't happen to anybody but he needs to add some lbs to withstand the punishment he can't run away from...
That being said a full year with his recievers and a coach that knows what he is doing should improve Thig this season.

i think they should keep Tyler atleast until 2010.

There should be an answer for "Who knows yet?".

Nobody knows for certain if he'll be any good if we switch from the spread or if the OL is improved at this point.

Agreed. I don't understand why Brees always seems to be underrated.

TyThig isn't very big, but, man, he took some hits this year and always seemed to bounce right up.

And yet, another reason why to run the Bootleg

TT is no Brady but he looked at least as good as Cassel IMO.

**Pro_Angler** · 02-17-2009, 07:12 PM

I like Thig and think he deserves a shot at a whole season next year with a beefed up OL.

**Hayvern** · 02-17-2009, 08:15 PM

I too believe that Thigpen should be considered the future until he proves he is not. I just don't understand the disrespect for the kid, no one has yet been able to explain to me why a first year rookie QB coming in here without ever taking a snap in the NFL would be expected to do any better.

Thigpen might end up sucking at the end of the season, but I would be surprised if he did.
