Atlanta Skins Fan Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 ... In other news, Ravens QB Kyle Boller is still trying to trying to find the broad side of a barn, aided by a crack team of detectives, trained bloodhounds, and a barrel of footballs. Meanwhile, Brian Billick's reality distortion field continues to endure, more than a year after Billick traded 1st-round and 2nd round picks for the "right" to draft Boller. Back at Cal, scientists are still attempting to determine how a 53.6% passer was ever drafted so high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a good night last night, in fact, he has looked better each time out this preseason. Bottom line, I dont think its fair to judge him at this point. Question, didn't Joe M. have bad year or two when he first broke into the NFL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade7 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 He isn't montana, but having McCardell on the team definetly won't hurt. You could almost say thier WR corps would be respectable. Almost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt that McCardell is a formidable WR and he would fit in with the rest of the malcontent's, killers, drug dealers, baseball bat weilding, kidnapping, thugs. Did I forget anything? I know that "killer" might have been a little rough so maybe I'll change that to accomplice. Nah, I'll stick with killer. Can you tell I HATE the Ravens? :ravensuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravens777 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Originally posted by KingGibbs Oh yeah, I can definitely see him being compared to Joe Montana. I never compared him to Joe Montana. The point of the post was to point out he is only 23yo and in the NFL and I am sure we all can understand the pressure on a kid like that. I made a statement about Joe Montana because even he had a hard time getting started not to say Boller is the next Montana. :hammer: Nope, never put Joe's numbers against Boller's....wow, where did you get that....

The fact that you mentioned Boller and Montana in the same sentence is a joke.

method man Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 their WR corps is respectable now. keenan will be their no. 1, kevin johnson no. 2, and travis taylor will line up in the slot where he can exploit small corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 well, it looks like they arent having much luck with Kevin Johnson. Keenan seems like he would fit on that team, but why doesnt he go to Oakland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TODD Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 He'd fit in real well. Big year last year as #1 and no reason to believe he can't repeat it. I think the offense gets much scarier if Keenan gets thrown in because WR becomes a strength because of their depth (McCardell, Taylor, Johnson).

Dead Money Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Anybody else get really aggravated seeing Kyle BOller on TV with that evil little snear of his????? I really can't even stand to listen to him knowing that he always has that smirk on his face (like gruden).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie5 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 McCardell would be good for them -- they simply suck at WR. With a young QB (whom I don't think will wind up being anything special), they need the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Washington Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 i think if they can get him they can do big things. did anyone know they have a 6ft 6 wr? that dude is huge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Would be a great move for them -- especially if Tampa throws in Brian Griese. Boller got drafted at nine because at the combine he threw a ball fifty yards from his knees, a skill that comes into play... well, never really.

Henry Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 ASF's got a point. The Ravens can sign all the former superstars they want. They've still got a huge question mark at the most important position on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefhogskin48 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 If you want my thoughts on Boller, which happen to be the exact same as ASF's, then go here. Or here. That last thread was quite a long Boller debate. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Williams Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Originally posted by Atlanta Skins Fan 53.6% passer was ever drafted so high. Wasn't he on a bad team? Who was his wide receivers b/c I can't name 1 that was any good.....maybe that explains his passer rating....... His potential should not be judged on his receivers inability to catch.
