The Packers were 6-9 this year. With Aaron Rodgers, who started 11 games.
Flacco is washed up. Stupid trade by the Broncos. Meanwhile, Viking fans have really soured on Cousins. I would like to see Case go to NY Giants. Arizona is a horrid franchise, always has been always will be as long as the name Bidwell is involved with the ownership.
Being 6 foot puts him at a disadvantage in the pocket, the lines he has had had have been very bad. The Vikings line in 17 was tbe best one he had and they got worse as the season progressed. Flacco will get destroyed in Denver.
There are other six foot QBs that are doing just fine. I think itās more a function of not having any talent around him.
To the Texans, Rams, Vikings and Broncos:
Would be the perfect fit. Him and Dak are similar QBs so the offense would be easy for him to take over. I thought the Cowboys should have picked him up two years ago, hopefully if they get the chance again they donāt screw it up. Plus Case was a Cowboys fan growing up (as any self respecting Texan outside of Harris county is).
Case hurt his knee in the 2nd game this year. Still not 100% ā¦
Well, I am a huge Case fan, no matter where he plays, whether he plays, whether he starts, or whether heās a back-up. I think he can be a really good starter if given adequate players around him. I am pulling for him and for any team he plays on.
Iām right there with you red80. To the point of annoying friends and family. . Iām not an NFL fan or a Texans fan, but a Case Keenum fan.
I think unfortunately Case has spent nearly his entire career on bad teams, or at least teams with bad OL. Itās probably true of many qb ābustsā. We all saw what he could do last year with a good OL and a competent coach. Off the top of my head I canāt think of any QBs that took over for Case that had better success with the same team.
Iām not saying heās a HOFer or even Pro Bowler, but heās carved himself out a nice careerā¦ Much better than the NFL front office brains ever thought heād do.
Well said both of you. I think a lot of people forget what kind of teams heās been on. Honestly, he is only been on one team that had an average to better than average offensive line, a good running back, a good set of wide receivers, and a good defense. That team was Minnesota. The rest of those teams were pretty much a dumpster fire.
Some people try to say that Minnesota team carried him but itās funny how Kirk Cousins was supposed to be a better quarterback and take them to the next level yet they didnāt even make the playoffs with the same team that Case played with.
Bottom line is Case is a good NFL quarterback in spite of the hand he has been dealt and what statistics may show. That is not being biased, that is a fact. If he can get one more chance at a team that has those qualities you will see that team go to the playoffs and have potential to win big games. Not in spite of him but because of him.
Bill Belichick is truly a football genius, year in and year out his O-Line is never 2nd best in my opinion, especially in big games! Patriotsā O-Line always do its job at keeping Brady upright so that he can make those big throws! Thatās the main secret to the Patriotsā success!
Is this the Case Keenum thread or not? Just asking.
There is no QB that played better than Case in those teams that he had played for and thatās why you couldnāt think of one! Remember, Jared Goff went 0-6 replacing Case!
Sucks for Case, at least he got paid and is set for life, not too bad at his age and Iām sure he still has some years left as a backup.
What Minnesota did differently with him is have him throw the ball downfield more often.
He did make it in the NFL. The fact we are discussing his career 8 years after he left UH proves everyone was wrong about him. He made it.
And allowed him to move around as well.
Denver wanted him to stay in the pocket, with a subpar offensive line, and play conservative. Thatās never been Caseās strength.
So now we have 2 Case Keenum threads. I canāt run!
Can this thread be merged with Caseās?
Itās ok Chris, just messing was subject matter. I was told not to open up Case thread(so I donāt) if I didnāt want to read about all the excuses on why he is not successful in NFL. Itāll just reappear again somewhere else.
