Gradkowski threw for only 225 (his career high by far) in a losing effort in his first start.  I've watched every snap of this guy's NFL career (including preseason) so far.  He couldn't make some of McCown's throws if his life depended on it.  He also couldn't move anything like McCown was moving on Sunday.  McCown did make some critical mistakes, that is absolutely true, but he also came back from them and made that game winning TD throw with only a few seconds left - that's something Gradkowski has never shown the ability to do.

tk_42_1:
I totally agree with you CT.  I'm on the McCown Bandwagon right now.  I love his mobility and arm strength.  Bruce pales in comparison.  Hopefully he learned some stuff from Sunday's game (like throw the ball away when you are out of the pocket) and maybe he can keep the ship on course long enough for Garcia to heal up.

ChadTower:

He shouldn't have to learn to get rid of the damn ball when you're under pressure in the end zone.  You learn that in Pop Warner.  That was one of the dumber things I've seen an NFL QB do since the last Giants game.

tk_42_1:
But there is the difference of getting actual game time experience(1 game plus pre season with Tampa) and walking the side lines/practice field experience(3 years). 

I think we will see a much more improved McCown this week.  If not, hopefully a bunch of 34 running down the Texans.

Wow, Brad Johnson as backup. He used to play in Minnesota too when he 1st started out. Had really good numbers, his nickname was "Opie". Pretty sure he used to throw a lot of long balls to Moss, unless he was just before Moss' time with MN...Can't recall now.

Anyway, I don't even watch much football like I used too. I see Green Bay is doing well though. Does Favre have a chance to take em all the way again, or I thought I heard they were lacking a running game? I wouldn't mind seeing him win one more...
