I'm sick of the excuses for Patrick Ramsey. It's time to freaking show us what he's got and start winning some games.

I dont know if anyone would consider anything that happened in 2003 legitimate. He had no run support, no line support, no protection, no coaching staff, and no job security. His coach wanted werfull (or however you spell it.) Last year was like his rookie season, because it was his first year in a controlled system of professional football. He got thrown to the dogs in the middle of last year, because Brunell couldnt throw past the LOS. Hell he couldnt throw behind it either. Hell he couldn't manage a handoff, or a center exchange. I recall Ramsey won a few games last year doing exactly what was asked of him. Ball control. Look at his turnovers after he won the starting job.

No one is making excuses for ramsey because no one sould have to after the first preseason game of the season. Believe me, he's our absolute best option out of what we have.
