    Regarding your comments on his passing, you must have missed the long TD pass he made against ISU at Waco when he was a frosh. It might have been the best play/pass I've seen an opposing QB make on ISU. He has made plays like that against other teams, too.

    Both Weeden and Jones will be playing for new OCs, Weeden's advanced age may help him deal with the change moreso than Jones.
    I was at the game, I saw the play, it was incredible.

    Notice, I qualified my statement with "he looked like the second coming as a frosh". Last year, he came back to earth a little bit.

    Austen Arnaud threw some of the most incredible passes I had ever seen his sophomore year too. A few incredible plays does not a great career make. Jones is more consistent and can make a wider range of throws. Griffin is a better athlete, but he isn't durable enough physically to rely on that on an every down basis.
    In 1984, I was hospitalized for approaching perfection.

    Griffin is a great athlete who can make plays. Jones is the better quarterback. Jones.

    With his entire year last year I assumed the sarcasm was implied.

    Griffin with our WR. Jones is the better QB.

    Re: Landry Jones or Robert Griffin?

    My question is, why is this in the ISU Football page instead of the Big 12 page?
    Friends don't let friends wear black & gold. Build a man a fire, you keep him warm for a day. Set a man on fire, you keep him warm for the rest of his life. Set a hawkeye fan on fire, you make Iowa a better place to live.

    Hard to say as a Clone fan. I have seen both guys rip the ISU defense to shreds. I would probably go with Jones, Griffin has had some great games and some not so great ones. Jones has been more consistant.
