Quote:I guess now all the haters have is "he decommitted from Miami" and "he dressed like a girl for a class project"....and in pirk's case add "he's black"

 

Pirk and I have certainly had our disagreements, but I will vouch for his color-blindness.

 

He was the most vocal advocate of RG III when he was coming out of Baylor, and strongly suggested that the Colts pick him first overall.  Now that there have been a couple years of history, perhaps he has noted the drawbacks of having a slight frame in the NFL.

 

The major problem Bridgewater's critics - not "haters" - have of him is that he is small and has small hands.  He's plenty tall, and plenty smart, and showed plenty of promise at his conference level.  We have gone down that road before, and had to cut that guy in favor of a stronger, bigger-handed, larger framed QB that could stay on the field.

 

Forgive us if we seem a bit "reserved".
