    Its amazing how some players have a breakout year followed by... uh... reality.

    Denard is just another really fast playmaker that opponents have figured out how to stop.

    Cam Newton... Timmy T. ... Michael Vick... literally :lol:

    ESPN did a segment this week about how few running qbs ever reach sustained greatness in the NFL. I remember thinking how great Vince Young was in college... then what? Same with Danny Woeful.

    The list would be really long of one year wonders and really short for the guys that become truly great players..


    There are only so many like the Mannings, Joe Montana, John Elway, Bradshaw and Staubach... who just seemed to get better and better.

    Except Denard Robinson is no where near on the level of Vick, Newton or Tebow

    Danny Wonderful wasn't a running QB.

    Cam Newton has turned out to be anything but a bust thus far. One season in and he was already setting Rookie records for running AND throwing.

    Vick was amazing before Dogs derailed his career. Prison tends to do that to a guy I suppose.

    Denard will be a decent player at the next level, but no one expected a great QB to emerge from him really

    Yes you are right... but neither was he successful after all the hype... He is doing some amazing work now in New Orleans though.

    Cam has run for ten yards so far THIS year... Ten. His completion percentage isn't much better THIS year. His team will not make the playoffs... ever!

    Vick is fun to watch... when he isn't hurt... but his team will never win a playoff game against a solid defense.

    Denard... may or may not even get drafted...

    I honestly can't remember a single team who has won a Super Bowl with a "run around and hope someone comes open" style of offense. There's a difference between "extending the play" ala Roethlesberger and "running around" until someone blows a coverage and then hanging the ball up for grabs.

    This guy.......worst thing about ND returning to mediocreness is Lou Holtz slobbering again. Damn when is mark may gonna punch him in the face.

    Just for the record bama actually made Tebow and Denard both look pedestrian...:evilgrin::evilgrin::evilgrin:

    :lol: HAHAHAHA. I'm riding the wave as long as I can. The return to mediocrity is going to be short lived I'm afraid. I do like the way the defense is playing though!
