The 2010 Point and Laugh at the Eagles thread

[General_Failure]

They made him the starter because he's not strong enough to hold a clipboard for 16 games.

[MDS]

i thought put pg posted a clipboard because that was her proposed protection against my eye-flying semen

[ice grillin you]

pg is hard core on her cobb hate...i think ive underestimated it

[MDS]

the best part about it is its completely unfounded

there is literally no evidence whatsoever that suggests anything about kolb

yet pg has decided that hes gonna be terrible and since shes a crazy stubborn suburban mother thats the way it is gonna be

dont get me wrong pg is top 5 and legend, but this one is teamin her up with ***** and i dont think i need to explain what that means

[General_Failure]

And now is the part of the thread where IGY makes a comment, and MDS breaks it down for us.

IGY: grilled cheese is pretty good

MDS: its great when the cheese is just barely oozing out the sides and the top and bottom are a nice golden brown. not as dark as my last bowel movement, but darker than that mulatto who walked in the background of one episode of The Wire for two and a half seconds

[ice grillin you]

im pretty sure i dont know what your psychotic ass is talking about but there are only two acceptable places to get a grilled cheese...your kitchen and a diner (where i always order 2)...the one big negative with grilled cheeses is that they cant fill you up...i could literally eat eight or nine and not be full

[MDS]

for example here is the list

top 5
1. phreak
2. pg
3. easy
4. havas
5. matty

top 5 weirdos
1. gf
2. n/a

bottom 5
1. ****
2. n/a

lol grilled cheese

[ice grillin you]

pg is not going to be happy about her ranking

[PhillyPhreak54]

Great. Now I want a farging grilled cheese. Thanks.

[Rome]

howie mania running wild!

[MDS]

he is a sick person

there is no end in sight

[Munson]

i cant wait to nut in all your eyes when kolb kicks ass

All being J/PG/munson...pretty sure everyone else is cool with kolb

Just because he has a weak ass arm and I don't think he can be "the guy" on a SB team doesn't mean I'm still on the hate train. I've come around to the hopeful side and overall I think he'll have decent numbers in the future
This year is more likely than not going to be a turnover fest though, and he's going to get murdered behind that oline.

Hopefully in a couple of years the FO can rebuild the defense and they can be a serious contender again.

You've come around on him but think he has a weak ass arm and is going to be a turnover machine? Sounds to me like you're still a hater.

Couple of scouting reports:

Arm strength is more than adequate and he has a very quick release...Strong and has a solid build...Protects the ball and has a good career TD / INT ratio...Durable and has a lot of experience...Solid athlete who can run a little and hurt defenses with his feet...Has everything you look for from an intangibles standpoint in terms of leadership, brains and work ethic...Extremely productive throughout his career.

2007 article from ESPN:
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=pasquarelli_len&id=2958313

What the Eagles saw when they evaluated Kolb was a quarterback with plenty of college experience, having started 50 games, with a strong enough arm, nimble-enough feet, a feel for the game and loads of confidence.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/historical/414742

Throws the long ball with adequate touch and accuracy, zips the posts and even when he passes off his back foot, he is still able to generate good velocity

Compares To: JAY CUTLER-Denver ... Before his senior season, Kolb was reminiscent of David Carr -- blessed with good arm strength, but too streaky in his performance. With added maturity, a trimmer body and a stronger arm, he has elevated his status to the top of the position.

To say his arm is not as strong as McNabb's would be accurate, to say it is weak is just being a hater. You don't need a rifle for an arm in the WCO, the ability to read a defense is the most important asset. Did you really think it was necessary for McNabb to gun 90 MPH fastballs to receivers that would watch it bounce out of their hands because their reaction time wasn't fast enough?
Regardless I'll take these legitimate scouting reports that say his arm is strong to adequate for the NFL over your 2 game evaluation.

Great Kolb shot:

[smeags]

yeah i'm not getting the "weak ass arm" comment either.
