[QUOTE="RedPete, post: 267959, member: 2682"] Are we comparing to TW because he was the most recent QB, or because JM resembles his style? Regardless, I think it's gonna feel a lot different next year without Justin Thomas! His skills were unique and enabled CPJ to open up the offense. Before JT came along, pretty-much any time our QB threw the football our butt-holes clinched in fear. Joey Weaver put it better in his FTRS piece: "There's an unmeasurable sign, to me, that Thomas is a good passer. Under previous quarterbacks, any time I saw them drop back to pass and then put the ball in the air, it was like my heart skipped a beat and time stood still. I never had any idea what was going to happen, and statistics tell us there was a better chance that the pass would be incomplete or intercepted than caught. I don't get that feeling when I see Thomas drop to pass. Ask yourself -- the feeling you got when Nesbitt, Washington, and Lee dropped back to pass...is it the same one you get when Thomas does? Because I, personally, trust Thomas's decision-making and arm accuracy far more than I did any of the other quarterbacks to play for Paul Johnson." So next year we'll likely have a mere mortal at quarterback again. Can Jordan last a whole season? I say yes because, to me, he plays just like the previous QBs before the special Justin Thomas. But here's hoping either Jordan or another young QB on the roster (Jones, Johnson, ?Campbell) can demonstrate some dynamic playmaking ability in practice to separate himself in some way. [/QUOTE]
