How many college QBs complete less than 60% of their passes without adding significant running ability and make it to the NFL? That seems like the biggest problem for JVB.

I was able to find that Jake Locker did (of course, NFL types have always seemed strangely in love with him).

Yes, its really strange that the nfl would love a big kid who can run and throw. Like jvb, locker had less than great talent around him his senior year. And what do you know! Hes started nine games and has a 93.7 rating. Weird.

hey, rather than being a dick and acting like you're an NFL scout, could you maybe provide NFL QBs who were similarly (in)accurate to Vandenberg in college? I provided Jake Locker as a counterpoint (who, I forgot, actually could run, so he doesn't really prove anything with JVB).

Holy shit, is JVB being compared to a top 10 NFL draft pick/starter? The only thing JVB and Locker have in common is that they are both white quarterbacks.

And winning. He's already got BBK pissed off, and almost had me pissed off for a minute (few things rile my passion like the Banks-McCann travesty of 2001, and JVB's lucky if he's as good as Kyle).

It is time to predict what play Monster picks from his playbook.

Option A: "I was just trolling the whole time, guys!"

Option B: "After further thought, I realize I was wrong. (I'm such a man compared to you guys because I can admit that I was wrong on the internet)"

The way i define a QB, i think jvb is better than banks. Im not backing down from that. If - IF - he gets drafted or makes an nfl roster, ill be proven right and youll all be eating a giant shitburger.

I like Vandy, but, he is just not accurate and is really bad under pressure. Watch penn state and Nebrantska games last season

His decision on the pick aggainst iowa state sums up his career.

Can we come to an agreement that, in the course of a conversation about Iowa quarterbacks, "best quarterback" can be defined as the quarterback who played the best for Iowa?

Still too broad.

This is a STUPID fucking argument. Brad Banks would skeet skeet skeet all fucking over Vandenturd. The guy was the runner up for the fucking HEISMAN FUCKING TROPHY.

How this is still being discussed is beyond me, but then I realize the guy dying on the hill is Lt. Farty McFaggot aka Monstar.

If Brad Banks was the QB at Iowa this year, we would have a legitimate shot to go to the Big Ten Championship.

Doubt it...call me a pessimist but we dont have a CJ Jones, Freddie Russel or Mo Brown on the squad either.

Or Jermelle Lewis and Freddie Russell running the ball

Not to mention no one like Roth, Clauss, Cole, Hodges or Babs at the DL


We're going to win 5 games

This might be one of the dumbest arguments ever made on this site.

All of this would make sense if the 2012 team was playing in the 2002 Big Ten where they had the National Championship team and 4 Top 15 teams and another few 8 win teams. Since the argument is that Brad Banks would make THIS team a contender in THIS YEAR, I guess we will just count this one as another retarded RecGyno post.

Most NFL QB's focus on their 1st WRs, so Vandy should do very well.

First thought: Typical Monster.
Second thought: Not a bad troll.
Third thought: What the fuck?
Last thought: Typical Monster.

Mr. Hawk was in early on this new great moment in HaLo QB talent evaluation as well, wasn't he? I forget at this point.

IN defense of MH, Vandy had a very solid year last year. That team sucked. This team sucks this year as well but it seems like he's exacerbating some issues with his play which makes it all the more frustrating because he was supposed to be they guy holding everything together. The season is still relatively young, I suppose. That's as optimistic as I'll get about him right now.
