[QUOTE="thwgjacket, post: 44445, member: 165"] JT may end up getting injured this year but of the injuries you listed there are 2 distinct types in my opinion. First you talk about wear and tear from hits. I can see that and have no real disagreements. But the sprained ankle and hamstring injuries you talk about aren't really from taking hits. I've never seen a guy get rocked and then been informed he has a sprained ankle. For the most part sprained ankles are just bad luck. JT being smaller does not mean he is more likely to sprain an ankle. The same thing with hamstring injuries. Most of the time hamstring injuries vary individual to individual. I don't recall JT having had a hamstring injury so I don't see any imminent hamstring injuries in his future, especially not from hits alone. JT had a concussion last year when he got hit standing in the pocket, but that hit would have concussed 99% of QB's. Wasn't really because of his size. Only other issue I have is with the inflection in your writing. This may be unintentional but it comes off like you feel that Byerly should be the starter. It's cool if that is your opinion but I think you should just say that instead of presenting a supposedly unbiased review of both QB's. When you write about the Con's with Byerly you give excuses for him by using terms like "unfortunately". You don't do that when talking about JT. **Just the way I read it. [/QUOTE]
