taylorcoreskin Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Boy what a dumb post. Actually you failed to mention that nose nostril size is the second leading indicator of NFL success/failure in the NFL for a QB. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Boy, your post is incredibly dumb. Suggesting that hand size is as unimportant as nostril size for a starting quarterback in the NFL is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VASkins540 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I know right...I don't see what's so funny about the OP. It's an obscure stat, no doubt, but that doesn't mean it's unimportant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Pablo Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Considering Campbell's best game was against Green Bay, I'd say his hands haven't hurt him in bad weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terpfan Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Cpepp really does have some small hands in relation to his body... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever21 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 sounds like combine bologne. His hands are plenty big for pro football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Pablo Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Really? I'd say that was against Detroit or Philly last Sunday. Stat-wise perhaps. I thought that before his O-line was totally decimated in the third/fourth quarter, Campbell looked like a HOFer. Some of the passes he threw blew my mind in how accurate they were. Campbell was getting absolutely no help from his receivers or his backs. If he had, JC would have gotten over 300 yards and a couple TDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uno Mas Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Cpepp really does have some small hands in relation to his body... Is this photoshopped?? His hands look like midget hands. I wonder if it has anything to do with being born in prison, or the crack his mother was smoking to get herself into prison!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novus Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 sounds like combine bologne. His hands are plenty big for pro football. Yes, Jason's hands are probably around average for an NFL quarterback (i.e. still huge compared to the rest of us). Although, quarterbacks with big hands do tend to have a slight advantage over guys with average to smaller NFL hands. Brett Farve has almost 11" hands. This is a reason given as to why he is still so successful in colder or wet weather. His grip isn't compromised. Who knows if having average NFL size hands is the reason Jason has had a little bit of trouble holding onto the ball? I'm sure the coaches have been correcting his technique, either way. He can't hold the ball the same way he did in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potato Sack Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Who was the Kansas City QB back in the early to mid 90s (maybe?) who had small hands? The announcers used to talk about the fact that he couldn't hold onto the ball like most QBs with bigger hands. I can't remember his damn name. But, you know, it could account for JCs propensity to fumble. Edit: It was Dave Krieg. I found an article that talks about his hands: "Even though his career passing stats are impressive, Krieg may be better known for something more dubious — his habit of fumbling the football. The length of Krieg's career, coupled with small hands and the suspect offensive lines he always played behind, "helped" him become the leading fumbler in NFL history for a time in the early 1990s."

NavyDave Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 So it wasn't the pass rush of New England and the vets slapping the ball out of his hands that game that caused the fumbles? Wow my 20-10 vision and TV replay must have failed me and that must be the reason to stay with a don't attack consistently downfield mentality. better insert the to signify the sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 It's not really a dumb question. It's been talked about before. See the article I referred to above. The current state of the offense has to do with coaching philosophy and a depleted / injured WR corps. His hand size is not going to be the excuse for his success or failure unless he hooks up with a Pam Anderson or Tocarra Jones type hottie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demoonda Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I think the thing that's most important about Jason's hands is the way they're located right at the end of his arms, which is where most centers tend to snap the ball. A fine point indeed, my good sir. Fine point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gortiz Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I'm thinking the topic of JC's hand size might have run it's its course, so at the risk of hijacking this puppy, I wanted ask ... Anybody not take the Philly loss to hard in light of JC's performance? I sure didn't. I was so happy to see him dice up good AND VERY PROUD defense. The last two drives STUNG REAL BAD, but I think he'll be able to overcome that, cause god knows the kid can keep his cool ... I love seeing him put the two fingers up .. AWESOME.
