How Good is Brady Quinn?

bucsfan67 · Oct 22, 2005

I know a lot of it is the "system" that Charlie Weiss has installed, finally letting the athletes on this team, perform, instead of being so conservative the last few years....However, this guy looks good.....I don't see him being a high draft choice, or a BIG STAR in the NFL, but as a college quarterback, Charlie Weiss seems to have really brought out the best in him.....

Definitely not the same qb as we saw last year......

He has been solid all year....and in ND's 2 losses, they certainly CAN'T be pinned on Quinn........he was solid in both games....

Ty never let him audible last year. Veteran line and best receivers in a decade never hurts either. Still has Stanford, Navy, and Syracuse on the schedule.

He's a solid college QB. Nothing special.

I was telling my brothers this yesterday: last Monday I was watching the NFL Network, and a reporter was telling Rich Eisen that he talked to a scout after the USC-ND game, and the guy said that right now he'd take Quinn over Leinart as a pro prospect, and said he wasn't the only one who felt that way.

I think that has more to do with how overrated Leinart is rather than how good Quinn is, but regardless it does speak to his improvement. He has a good arm and is mobile for a QB. His accuracy has improved drastically. He still makes some awful decisions at time, but overall he's really matured under Weiss. I don't necessarily agree with those scouts, but there are definitely some Quinn fans out there in the NFL world.

Oh, and can you imagine how lethal that already-deadly passing attack would be if Rhema McKnight was healthy? He's easily better than Stovall and Samarzdja.

Man, Samarzdja has really come out of nowhere, that kid can play....

Notre Dame may not lose another game this year....

What impressed me most about Quinn yesterday is he completely shreded BYU's defense without any running game at all. The Irish rushed for 44 yards so BYU knew the pass was coming and still couldn't stop Quinn
