Re: OT: Omg! Wtf! Lol! Colt Brennan Is So 1337
 

Good quote from Zorn on Colt:

[QUOTE]"He has to become a more disciplined quarterback, and not risk as much as he risked in the game," Zorn said, while praising Brennan's exuberance and flair.[/QUOTE]

He definitely made some throws last night that made me say "Wow, can't believe he even attempted that". I like the gunslinger mentality but some of those were throws that will get you benched really quick in the NFL against top competition.

Please help an old guy out... what does 1337 mean?

I have to agree with that.

Brennan did make some phenomenal passes at Hawaii and he did make some plays which won games.

He admitted that he got lucky a couple of times last night, particularly on that throw over the middle which could have been picked. I'm sure Zorn told him he was lucky and he admitted it.

What I do like about Brennan is that he will try to learn and he will learn to be more disciplined. If he can learn and work with Zorn, he could be a great pickup.

I know from experience that he is a great leader to have on a team with the game on the line.

But, he is going to have to learn that, in the NFL, the game might be on the line earlier than you think. In some contests, the game is on the line just about every series. One major mistake and you are cooked.

He'll learn that, hopefully not the hard way.

He hates to lose, so that is a good thing anyway.

"Initially, the word [I]leet (aka 1337)[/I] was used as an [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjective"][COLOR=#0066cc]adjective[/COLOR][/URL], to primarily describe the behavior or accomplishments of others in the community. In that usage Leet generally carries the same meaning when referring to either the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_game"][COLOR=#0066cc]game prowess[/COLOR][/URL] or, in original usage, [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_%28computing%29"][COLOR=#0066cc]hacking expertise[/COLOR][/URL] of another person. "

[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet]Leet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/url]

Basically in layman terms it means elite. Though it's pronounced as 'leet.' I didn't understand it the first time I heard it either. The 1337 comes from a code where numbers are associated with letters.

Also for those that don't know this thread is a combination of preventing someone from starting a seriously leading Colt thread (like 'Colt isn't that good' or 'Colt should start') as well as a sort of inside joke inspired by the "Todd Collins is 1337 thread." If you guys noticed I copied the thread pretty much word for word with the exception of replacing Todd Collins name with Colt Brennans.

[QUOTE=Mattyk72;461393]Colt played well but consider a couple of things. He was playing against scrubs, he had WRs running wide freaking open. That's not going to happen against first stringers. But I did like his accuracy, when he saw a guy he hit him.[/QUOTE]

it don't get why i keep hearing people say this stuff. colt brennan is a 6th round pick. by definition, a scrub. the receivers he was playing with, were scrubs. the linement protecting him were primarily scrubs. what you'd like to see your scrub do is dominate with and against his fellow scrubs with superior scrubiness. and that's what our scrub did.

People are trying to keep in perspective that he was playing against defenders who will probably not be on a team come opening day. Yes he looked good against them and I hope he looks good against 1st and 2nd stringers but just don't get over hiped on he guy just yet.

So... our scrub played well against their scrubs.

Again, nothing to get too excited about.

Ban for the thread title.

:)


Seriously though, Brennan looked solid and threaded many double and triple-teams for completions. His decision-making might need a little work but his arm looked incredible.

Yeah and I'm steering this one...Yeah it was against scrubs but if Favre and Brees had a love child he'll be it.

Re: OT: Omg! Wtf! Lol! Colt Brennan Is So 1337
 

I was impressed. This is a lot better than what this thread would look like if he went 1 for 10 with 2 picks for 14 yards. I liked this pick on draft day. Still like it. Not to say the jury still isn't out, because it is, but what's not to like about this first impression?

But deep down, it means a little something to know that our scrubs cumped their scrubs.

Makes me all tingly where it counts.

exactly. well, not so sure i'm tingly. but you see what i'm saying. i'm far from being on the "colt brennan is the 2nd coming of christ" bandwagon, but, like marshall faulk said last night, "he can only play with the cards he's dealt" and on that night, he played them well. nothing more. nothing less.
