300 yard game for Alex against Detriot?

I would rather see gore run for 300 yards!!

WGAF if he has a good day against a bad team. IMO winning the important games against good teams with great plays is what will shed the bust label and put him in the good/great player catagory.

It is ridicuous to establish a false standard of passing for 300 yards or more. It suggests that passing less is proof that Alex has failed. This is simple-minded thinking at its worst.

So much goes into the yardage number. It can be influenced by the score, by whether Gore is shredding the defense, by whether Davis, Walker and Crabtree are dropping passes again, and by whether they are running good routes. It will also be influenced by how well the OL is pass protecting and picking up blitzes. Having to get rid of the ball quickly to avoid sacks will tend to result in shorter gains.

Yes, Alex can play a big role in his stats as well. But in the end he should be judged by how well he does his part. This is hard to do when we have only the TV cameras to see what is going on. We do not see the whole field of play, especially in the early seconds before Alex lets go of the ball. We do not see what he is seeing downfield.

I still believe that Alex is in the process of developing. It may be a slow process for Alex in some fans' minds, but he is not alone. Look at the many other highly drafted QBs in the last five years. Rodgers is about the only one with a good QB rating.

is it going to rain tomorrow ?

raining a little bit right now

am showers predicted for tomorrow, but I bet it's sunny by gametime

LOL there is a thread about this every week. "This is Alex's break out game!". Its a bad sign when we are still sayin that, 5 years after we drafted him

Yeah, that 300 yard game sure worked well against the Seaf*gs...

The season is over. All that's left is to root for stats. At least it's something to look foward to. Cheer up it'll get better.

YOU SAY THAT EVERY YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AM showers and partly cloudy during game-time. 30% percipitation. i think it'll just be overcast

Even if he does, it won't matter because 300 yards against DET isn't really saying much. This is a preseason game.

Kurt Warner only threw for 228 last week against them. It's not like it's a certainty, he's going to have to play well to do it. I personally could not care less as long as we get a win.

omg if we lose to the lions

hope we get a W

I think he gets his 2nd 300 yard game with a couple of TD's to VD and Crabs. Also, Fwank gets his 1000 yards.

I agree with u on Gore, i really hope he gets 2 his 1000+ rushing this sunday. On the other hand, Bust Smith 300 yrds?? no way!! when ur no good, ur no good. he can play vs Lions or Colts and he's gonna suck (Im not a hater). but i really wish Gore n the team the best vs Lions.

Or he could play the Texans, Seahawks and Jaguars and he is going to look really good.
