In 1990 when Jones was 39 years-old, Bobby Beathard actually tried to coax him out of retirement to play for the Chargers when he saw Bert throwing the ball more than 75 yards in an NFL quarterback contest. After giving it some thought, Jones declined the offer ...... he cited advice from his doctor that re-injuring his neck (an injury which forced him to retire 8 years earlier in 1982) could cause permanent damage, perhaps even paralysis.

Bert had a much stronger arm that Elway. Just watch the film. Elway was a body thrower, much like Manning. To generate velocity Elway had to use the torque of his entire body. Watch Bert Jones play with a separated shoulder on MNF against the Redskins in '78 ,throwing frozen ropes with just a flick of his wrist. Even BB says that Bert was the best thrower of the football, that he's ever seen. |

How does Richardsons compare to Jalen Hurts (in college) as a passer? A quick highlight of their strengths and weaknesses has a decent amount of common points including concerns about accuracy and reading a defense.

I'd be fine with AR, I just don't want the Colts to trade up and give away picks that this team needs to fill the holes we already have!

I’d be good with it, find a bridge qb for the first 8-10 games
Imagine RPO with him and Taylor the defense has to honor both of those guys Don’t forget the new QB coach also coached Cam Newton Last edited by apballin; 03-06-2023 at 10:05 PM. |
