Brian Hoyer

[Kontradiction]

Addition by subtraction. A lot of tension outta the locker room.

It’s clearly a plot by the NFL to keep the Patriots out of the Super Bowl.

 

[ctpatsfan77]

How do we know Hoyer isn’t better than Brady? Brady is probably only playing to keep Hoyer from stealing his job.

Well, Hoyer actually led a 26-point comeback, so. . . .

 

[Simpelton]

So...is there a chance Brady doesn't play Sunday?

Brady would play Sunday if he was literally dying.

 

[CheeseMonkeys]

Uh oh... The latest reports are that Brady will practice throwing lefty in preparation for Sunday's game.

 

[TennisBallHead]

That's okay, they have a backup with lots of potential...

 

[Pats1989]

Uh oh... The latest reports are that Brady will practice throwing lefty in preparation for Sunday's game.

Where are these reports?

Does Alex Guerrero work with hand pliability?

 

[Tunescribe]

What if there was an earthquake?
A terrible flood?
Locusts!

"An old friend came in from out of town!"

"I didn't have money for cab fare!"

"They lost my tux at the cleaners!"

 

[Nehalem]

That would be something if Hoyer, Bortles, Keenum and Foles were the final four QBs.

Roger Goodell is probably offering to give Brady a hand massage to avoid a Hoyer-Foles Super Bowl.

 

[IllegalContact]

don't know..........but if Jimmy G were here, we'd put up at least 44

Brian Hoyer has flashes of brilliance, but then succumbs to be the mediocre/below average quarterback that he is.

So starting one game in the regular season? Maybe you get by, but playing in a game of playoff intensity against the league's best defenses? I don't like the odds of success

That's pretty much it.

He has like a 10% chance to do something stupid on every throw. Which almost guarantees at least 1-2 major screwups a game. Especially when the opponent knows and can prepare for Hoyer.

That being said I think he would be fine for 2-3 drives or even for a whole quarter.

Hoyer-Foles Super Bow

 

[Deus Irae]

Hoyer wet himself in his first playoff game. He wasn't the first to do it. He certainly won't be the last to do it. Yet, somehow, people want to define his entire career by using that one game. Meanwhile, Hoyer managed a better than .500 record (10-6) as QB of the Browns, and had a winning record as QB of the Texans (5-4), so it's not as if he's incapable of playing winning football.

From what we've seen of Brady, he'd play minus an arm and a leg to keep YOU from stealing his job.

 

[jri37]

The Patriots would still have the best QB in the game if Hoyer played.

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Uh oh... The latest reports are that Brady will practice throwing lefty in preparation for Sunday's game.

I heard that they'd brought in Cristiano Ronaldo to teach him to pass with his head...they're still working out the whole helmet thing but Guerrero is supposed to have a magic potion for that.

His one playoff start does not exactly instill confidence.

 

[IndianPat]

If Hoyer has to start, the game plan will probably be "play like Bortles" - about 25 throws with a lot of running plays. The outcome will be difficult to predict. I think it would depend on how well our defense plays. Bills lost 10-3. All it took for Jags to win was TWO sustained drives!

 

[Observer]

Hoyer plays and destroys the Jags... we get a first rounder for Hoyer to go with the second rounder for Garoppolo.
