Yeah the kid listened to everyone who kept saying we had a bad offense.

No shite kid. Thats WHY we wanted you.

I thought this thread would have a 36-24-36 in it somewhere.

Has a QB that tall ever been worth a damn?

 

[cctekguy]

Can't see why tall would be a detriment.

Lack of mobility and potential leg injuries, maybe.

Still have high hopes for Glennon (6'6" 194lbs). Gentry is 6'7" and 230 so is a much bigger boy all around.

I'd gamble on this kid before I would a "Manziel" type player.

Common thought is bigger is better, but come a point where I think the skills needed for that person and the body type of someone that tall would seem to not mix well.....there is a long history of professional football and the best example you could come up with (and I didn't have one either, why I asked) was glennon....yuck....in college I would MUCH rather have a maziel type.....now the nfl, different story.

Be interesting to do a more in depth look into taller (6-6 plus) qbs

Peyton Manning is 6'5" and 230. Does this qualify as "that tall" Miller?

The shittastic Ben Roethlisberger is also 6'5" (was discussed in the Heisman talk one year while he was at Miami)
