Was Jemarcus Russel really that bad?

TD- Great points. Al davis got suckered by the big arm. Maybe he was hoping JRus was a taller Daryl Lamonica

I forgot all about those two Playoff wins for JaMarcus Russell.












Oh, my bad.  That was Tim Tebow.  

Ignoramus.

Russell was a flop in the NFL. I didn't think he was that great of a QB in college, he just played on the same team with some great receivers (Dwayne Bowe, Buster Davis, Early Doucet, etc) and had a lot of arm strength.

Yes he really was that fat. 

Statistically JaMarcus is better than Tebow, therefore, using a reasonable logic (JaMarcus put up better stats with a much worse team), JaMarcus could have lead Denver to bigger and better things!

Just goes to show you that, statistics don't mean that much, Tebow lead Denver to a division tittle, Plus a play-off win.

Yes, he was. Couldn't read defenses. Wasn't terribly accurate. Didn't put in a full effort ever. Showed up out of shape to every team OTA. He was. The team that takes a chance on him will fall under the category of "we deserve to lose".

well, i wouldnt call those WRs great except Bowe...Doucet has his moments and Davis isnt doing much.....anyway, in my book, Russell was a great college qb, BUT in college it's easier and you can win on talent and just talent....in college, he can get away with throwing it 50 yards while falling or just throwing it up for grabs on one play where Doucet caught it. in the pros, those plays are rare.

I'm not sure I could even call Bowe great or even very good. But I think he could be great if he had a better QB to throw him the ball.
