I agree, and no I'm not a Georgia fan (or a Tech fan for that matter), far from it actually but if you watched the game Brennen had almost no time to throw. I will admit Brennen made some bad plays when he didn't have pressure, but for the most part there was a Georgia defender in his face almost everytime he dropped back to pass, and despite that he was able to get the ball off. Of course in the end he was sacked 8 times, and personally a lot of those sacks looked like he was reached in less then 3 seconds, not necessarily sacked, but close enough to prevent him from setting his feet. If you don't believe me then see for yourself.



Also, far be it for Synder to pass up a money making opportunity, even if it is a relatively small one.

Re: Colt Brennan

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum but i am one of Colt's biggest fans and felt the need to defend him.

Yes, he played at Hawaii in a weak conference in a very pass-heavy offense. And yes, this gave him an opportunity to throw more touchdown passes than other QBs who throw the ball less, but look at his other stats. He had about a 70% completion percentage over his career and his efficiency ratings were off the charts. These are stats that can't be inflated by the number of passes he threw and you have to be incredibly accurate to attain those stats, no matter who you're playing.

Also, people are quick to forget Hawaii's games against teams like Wisconsin, USC, Arizona State, Alabama, Purdue and Oregon State. His numbers were very impressive in those games and very similar to the ones he put up against WAC teams.

Clearly I'm biased (you could probably even call it a man crush...) but I strongly believe that Jim Zorn is the guy who can develop Colt into a big-time player. He is just thankful to have a shot in the NFL and is going to work his ass off for you guys.

Great post.
As I have stated in several posts, I have watched Colt, this kid has something special. I do not agree he's NFL ready, but how many qb's are out of college? I thought Hasslebeck was a terrible qb at BC, and thought no way he'd be a good qb. The fact that he is, means Zorn did one hell of a job. I have faith that if anyone will turn this kid into an NFL product, it will be Zorn.
I am looking for a Brennan authentic, or at least a replithentic...does anyone know where I could get one? (no replica's for me)

Thanks for the warm welcome. And I totally agree on the Zorn thing. As far as the jersey goes, are the customizable ones at nflshop.com what you're looking for?

Those numbers are screened on though right? I am looking for sewn on name and numbers.
