If it ends badly...my Fisher irritation will grow. This better a decision that doesn't lead to offensive fail. Or rather, is Hill doesn't look good and doesn't put Davis in, I'll be highly annoyed.
so what's the verdict on Mr Davis

I thought he threw well to all spots..He's very fun to watch. Also he looks much better than a good back up.
I'm curious where the ESPN's of the world rank AD this week?
Had to add I love the kid! I haven't been this excited about a QB in a long time. Sam Bradford goes down and I thought the season might be over. We get our butts kicked by the Vikings, then I really need some glimmer of hope and AD is it with the past 2 starts.

He overthrew his deep ball 4 different times. 3 of which were to Kenny Britt, who was wide open each time and very possibly would have gone in for a TD. His pass to Quick was a good pass no doubt. But he overthrows his receivers often when he throws it down field.
You can argue with me all you want...coming into this game, Austin Davis was #1 in the NFL by over 26% in deep passing accuracy percentage. There's no arguing that he's not accurate on the deep ball. And his over-throws to Britt were by a slim margin.
His deep ball has been accurate and on point. When he has missed, it has not been by much.
Apparently there is arguing it because you keep doing it. You have to define what a deep ball is when you're stating that. His throw past Britt in the 1st was 5 yds in front of him...I'll wager he doesn't make the top 15 in deep ball accuracy this year...
They define it as 20+ yards in the air(from the LOS). This week hasn't yet been added in.
And now, I'm done arguing it.

So does Brees, Cutler, Flacco, Locker, Palmer, Rodgers....
Wilson, Kaeperprick, Newton, Tannehill, Smith, dont' have any.
Ryan, Rivers, Stafford, Manning have 2.
Your point is...what exactly?
We were discussing deep ball accuracy. I asked the poster what his parameter was for deep ball accuracy because he said it was the best in the NFL. I stated that he has 1 completion over 40+ yds. He said he's using a parameter of 20+ yds. Just using different stats.
I was unconvinced of AD being anything special after last week. I didn't get the fuss that was being made of him. I thought his play was positive but not superb. I was much more impressed with today's effort and now want to see more of him. Nobody could convince me that Shaun Hill will absolutely be better than AD going forward.
Yup as I said, he threw the balls well, a deep TD, and the other three were pretty close. All I really remember was that TD.
72% completions.
8.0 yards per attempt.
93.1 rating.
I couldn't care less about perceived arm strength. Dude's playing good football and has won the starting job.
In fact, he deserves a helluva lot of credit for making Schottenheimer's offense productive.

not sure i follow your thinking. are you saying that davis somehow gets credit for jenks' pick 6?
I think he's saying that it wasn't Davis' fault that Cook dropped a TD and that Wells killed a scoring drive that would have been at least a FG. Granted, they're hypothetical points but realistically Davis basically led the team to them.
