dennis dixon to start?

no one knows if big ben will play, but charlie batch the backup is getting wrist surgery. so dixon is the back up as of now

"Steelers QB Charlie Batch, Big Ben's would-be replacement, needs wrist surgery and will be sidelined six weeks. Get ready, Dennis Dixon."

"Steelers will have no comment till Mike Tomlin's presser on Tuesday. If it is Dennis Dixon as starter, he has thrown one only NFL pass."

I'd be cool with this, if it were any other team BUT Baltimore. I hope he's ready, I've been saying for a long time the Steelers have an amazing chance to use the Wildcat with Dixon.

 

i dont think he can withstand many hits from nfl players...he is fragile

 

everyone is fragile but Dennis is fast and smart. His history of relative health doesn't lead one to conclude he is especially at risk... unless of course you are a Bitter Beav rooting against all things Ducks

STOMP

 

nope

 

so where exactly are you pulling this opinion from?

He doesn't have much of a history of injuries. He has decent size/weight... why is he more at risk then anyone else in the league?

STOMP

 

i was saying no to the bitter beaver fan part. and its all opinion, no point in debating if he is durable or not. we have to wait, and see

 

you list your location as Beavernation, and (searching through your posts) posted "lol" as a response to someone posting a picture of Dixon after he suffered a knee injury

so basically... yeah. Don't deny it

STOMP

 

thanks, want to know my family history too?

and yeah im not, one post doesn't mean anything...

 

no, why would I?

combined with your listed location, giving (and having) no logical reason for posting this about Dennis, I'm led to an obvious conclusion.

btw... I left out all the exclamation marks you put on your lol in response to someone posting a picture of DD writhing in pain on the ground. Stay classy!!!

STOMP

 

so obvious, that your wrong.........but hey, keep judging me for laughing at a joke, and my location.....

 

how is it obvious? Please enlighten me. The only things I'm reading point the other direction

STOMP

 

lol this is a pointless conversation, and going no where...you dont know if i am bitter or not. a post, and my location does not determine if i am or not

 

why leave out your negative prediction based on apparently nothing? I was just adding up what evidence I have to go on. Maybe 1 + 1 + 1 doesn't equal 3 in this case, but you can't blame math.

You are aware that Dennis took many hits from 300 lb guys in the Pac 10 right? How about that Joe Montana had the same height and weight? Would Joe be too fragile to play in the NFL? Drew Brees is doing pretty well at the same weight...

STOMP

 

Really. This would be awesome.

 

I'd love to see Dixon start. So we could see that he's just another Akili Smith and Joey Harrington.

 

Geez Stomp, give it a rest. It ain't like Dixon is your brother.

You uck guys get your feathers all in a ruffle when someone says something even remotely critical of your former players. And it wasn't like he was calling him a crap player, he just said in his opinion he seemed fragile.

 

and some Beaver fans can't seem to acknowledge their bitterness to all things Ducks. I find it funny to contend he's being objective when he can't provide another reason, and here you are defending him and coming up with clever nicknames... who would have ever predicted that?
