Why Did Ramsey Really Go to the Jets?

He does have what you look for, arm strengh, toughness, smarts, and we all know the kid has heart. To stand in there and take a beating like he did a couple of years ago answers that question. He needs a fresh start and an opportunity to become a starting QB. When he does, teams will then see if he is a good QB, which I think he will be.

Ramsey is gone for one reason only. He cost too much for our cap. Look what we've been able to do without his payroll. On Ramsey's behalf, I'd thought he'd be one of the next great QB's. It is too bad spurrier threw him to the wolves and didn't care about Patrick's physical well-being. As far as the post I'm quoting how about the part of "toughness"? I've never seen a QB take such a beating like '02 and '03. "Toughness" is not one of Patrick's problems. Hopefully he does pull a Brad Johnson on us, and someday win the SB just because he's such a stand up guy. He backed Brunell all the way, and yes he wanted to play. However did we make the playoffs last year? Did Ramsey sabtoge it in anyway? Did he not hit Moss on a standing ovation pass? All Ramsey wanted to do was be a Redskin, can you really blame or fault him? Good luck in Jersey Patrick.

:confused:

Ramsey was going to cost us next to nothing against the salary cap. We could have easily carried his cap figure. Gibbs let him go because he wanted to reward him for his professionalism throughout the season.

what? He was like 1.something million. Gibbs didn't like him. Thought there was too much risk with him and turnovers. He wasn't accurate enough for him. I do agree in the regards to him being a class act. he was always the first guy out there congratulation Brunell after a TD. Ramsey wants to play, period! He will get a shot now.
