    Finally... :beerbang2: We'll see how he does in a full game in the national (kind of) spotlight. The ushering in of a new era. We will finally see whether we have to pick up a QB or not this offseason. GO TJ.

    I don't think there's a whole lot he can learn with just 2 games remaining, but at least he's getting his chance.

He's a rookie. I'm not expecting anything spectacular.. something similiar to cutler's first start or worse. If he goes crazy then we know what to expect for next year. If he screws up then we know that he's going to have some rookie growing pains next year.

    I guarantee that Tarvaris will do better than Brad has throughout this year. The fact of the matter is that Tarvaris gives us a better chance to win in this game.

    he was what? 14-23? Twice that is 28-46. Not great not bad. I don't think he'll throw that much yet though. Maybe 21-34 or something closer to that. 2-3 TD's 1-2 Ints. It's a start. I think he should have started last week. He's the future and has energy and is something new. I think T-Jax will do well and give us a chance to win at least.

Then again, considering he's facing Green Bay it's not like it'll be hard for him anyways :whistling:

I just bet Brad Johnson wouldn't start every game this season.And I wouldn't doubt if he got absolutely eaten alive this Thursday. The Packers just have in in their genes to play better in the cold I guess. Too bad I won't be able to watch since I'm not going to pay money for the NFL Network.
