Comments on: Skins-Steelers: No reason to get wee-weed up http://realredskins.com/2009/08/skins-steelers-no-reason-to-get-wee-weed-up/ A blog for sophisticated Redskins fans Thu, 11 Mar 2010 06:03:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Rich Tandler http://realredskins.com/2009/08/skins-steelers-no-reason-to-get-wee-weed-up/comment-page-1/#comment-2024 Rich Tandler Mon, 24 Aug 2009 20:41:25 +0000 http://realredskins.com/?p=1453#comment-2024 Where did I say that Daniel is a gunslinger who doesn't know better? If Brennan is holding a candle up to Daniel he's reaching down to do so. Chase's height works against him in a big way. I also think that the fact that Brennan has a year in Zorn's system is a big strike in his favor as well. I have to agree that Daniel has mechanics that are much more NFL grade than are Brennan's. And I was impressed with his cool and with his confidence. Daniel has parts of two more games and about six more practices to beat out Brennan. I'll stick with my original call but I've been wrong before? Where did I say that Daniel is a gunslinger who doesn’t know better?

I usually like his columns, but his opinions were so unimaginative. First of all, being at the game, I can say that there were mroe 'SKins fans as STeeler fans. I will add though that there were way too many Steeler fans. Of course, a team's success has a lot to do with it. In the eighties, when the REdskins rolled the Eagles consistently, I used to go to Philadephia annually and actually bought ticckets at the stadium. Veterans stadium was filled with REdskins fans. Things go in cycles, but as a season ticket holder, I do wish that folks would stop selling their tickets all the time. I know there's traffic, high food prices, etc., but that's how it is at all NFL stadiums. anyway, good point about Mike Wise's column, bad job. I agree with your thoughts about Mike Wise.

Daniel is hands down a better QB for several reasons. He has always made quick accurate decisions, his throwing accuracy is uncanny, there is no comparison between the mechanics of the two, and finally he is very intelligent. You characterized Daniel as a young gun slinger who doesn't know better. You are dead wrong about that. He has always read defenses quicklyand made sound decisions and delivered the ball on time and on target. Daniel played better and faster compitition in the Big 12 vs. the weak WAC. And, last but not least he will simply out work you. He thrives under pressure. His quiet confidence is real. Chase is cool as a cucumber under the gun. I like Brennan but unfortunately he can't hold a candle to Daniel...period. Rich,
