I find that hard to believe. The only pass plays that he can read correctly are roll outs where he only has to read half the field. He has a pull it down and run first mentality....that's a hard habit to break.

Yes they are, based upon the laws of supply and demand. I don't see any owners losing their ass on their teams.

I'm one of those people that support athlete contracts. If an owner is willing to pay that much for a person, then that means they are worth it. Sports are businesses that generate a lot of revenue, and the money should go to the players people pay to see. NFL players do not get as paid as much as MLB, NBA, or soccer players.
I don't see people complaining about singers, who are born with a great voice and sometimes do not write their own music. Would you say a singer works harder than an athlete? (rhetorical question)
This conversation, and the preceding article it refers to, would definitely be more interesting if we were to compare Bradford to Britney.

Blather.
Having a "run first" O doesn't mean exclusion of the passing game. One of the biggest advantages of having a respected run game is being able to use play action and pass on first down ect.
Becoming predictable is death. It doesn't matter how a strength is established (run or pass), once it is established the key is to play off of it smartly. This is where Schottt comes in.
Using the default of Peyton....blah, blah. When playoff time comes and the games get bigger you will see Denver start to rely more on a run game. For all of his greatness Manning refuses to deal with a passrush and can't handle big games well.
As for saying what will Bradford do when he faces tougher Ds in the playoffs.....you mean tougher than SF, Seattle and Az six times? Tools.

Is anyone else completely tired of countless Bradford articles and ready for the freaking season to start?
I suspect we'll know one way or the other this year but until then it's all a bunch of wasted words.

I have heard people call Brady a game manager. He has won a few Super Bowls. Also are you trying to tell me Russell Wilson is anything more than a game manager? He is not and he has won a Super Bowl. You can call these guys anything you want, as long as the Rams win and Bradford can throw for 3500 yards and keep his interceptions under 10 with 25 to 30 TDs, I will take that game manager all day for this team.
Some of those game manager definitions would describe Joe Montana too. If that's what a game manager is, I want one of those.
Its completely allright to critcize Sam when it is warrented. I have done plenty of my own.
Fact of the matter is, the last time we saw Sam Bradford, he was putting up pro bowl level accuracy and numbers. I would not be suprised to see that same Sam this year. The Glorified Game Manager thing might just be the ticket for him put all this worthy/not worthy talk to rest.

I'm going to love when Bradford has a huge 2014 season!
Someone calculated that had the drops and penalties been cut in half, he was on pace to like 44 TDs and over 4000 yards so, yes, he COULD be an elite QB.
Elite or really good, fine with me. Ground and pound and win.

Sammy... Cool name for my quarterback and I've been pulling and rooting for this kid since day 1. He's also the 'one' position I think is not yet spoken for...I want Sammy to grab that bi$%h by the horns (nice) and make it his own. This season....now!
Plus I don't really care to have my QB be named Gilbert. (but i'd still you know)
