The thing about Bernie, that NO ONE ever points out..... he is NEVER AT PRACTICE!!!!! Everything he writes, every "opinion" he forms, is based on information he regurgitates from the likes of Sando, Jim Thomas, and whatever "pundit" he wants to suck up to on that particular day.
After being at EVERY TRAINING CAMP PRACTICE the past 3 years, I not ONCE saw "Mr. Miklasz" patrolling the sidelines with the other media types.
That being said, if he had been there, he may have seen the same things the coaches saw every day. Austin Davis was NOT the same QB throughout training camp this year as he was last. In fact, I stated coming out of camp, that if he had played the way he did this year in his rookie audition, there would be NO ONE who would have even known his name this year. Can someone tell me the name of the other UDFA QB that was in training camp last year? didn't think so!!!!! That would have been A. Davis had he been as bad last year as he was in camp this year. BTW... it was Tyler Potts from Texas Tech.
For those "faults" that Clemens is saddled with..... Austin Davis is all of that and then some. He bails way too early, and rather than running around trying to extend a play, he merely looks to run. Say what you want about Clemens and his accuracy issues, Davis was even less accurate throughout training camp.
There is a reason that Austin Davis, who, as mentioned, was all but given the back up job GOING INTO CAMP, "lost" the job. He just hasn't been good enough to warrant the chance. That they brought him back, IMO, was merely because he is the ONLY guy who could step in an play at all if something were to happen to Clemens. But to say he needs to have "his chance" so they can evaluate what he brings to the table moving forward is just plain wrong.
