Jamie Martin
 

Jamie Martin impressed me. He wasn't spectacular, but he had some really nice throws. He didn't look bad out there and that's the biggest positive. I feel very safe with him as a backup.

Your thoughts?

RE: Jamie Martin
 

I was happy when I found out we signed him. He is a good backup who has NFL experience. He didn't do anything great last night, and neither of his two picks where bad passes, the colston tipped pass and a Hailmary type throw. I'm happy to have him as a backup.

Beats the hell out of Bouman as the #2!

RE: Jamie Martin
 

He threw very well in stride with the receivers which really impressed me.

Yeah, his two picks are hard to fault him on. One was a bad bounce/luck, the other was an all-or-nothin' toss up.

RE: Jamie Martin
 

I don't think Bouman played bad last night, but it was against the bottom of the pack players. We all saw how good of a backup he was last season(being sarcastic of course). They need to get rid of him. I'm tired of seeing him in a Saints uniform.

Well, they say Brooks is a cheap man's Culpepper. If that's the case, I'd call Bouman a cheap man's Brooks.

Bouman looked decent when he first got here, but I think playing under Aaron Brooks altered his game. He plays very similar to Brooks now. That doesn't fly with me.

I like Marting over Bouman....I am still ticked off the A-Mac is tackling 200 lb mother F%$##@ on special teams though...yes he is an athlete, but some on we all know he is a QB or possibly a KR/PR or a WR, but special teams, come on

RE: Jamie Martin
 

first and foremost, amac is a football player, and if coach wants him to play special teams, then he better get out there and play special teams... the guy is getting good money to play a game... he could be working like the rest of us, you know...

RE: Jamie Martin
 

True.....after his reputation fell apart in college......he should consider himself lucky.

Martin could be a started in the NFL, hell Jon Kitna is a starter why not martin..
Martin did very well last year with the Rams..

Yeah, i think he was 4-1 as their starter last season/

Yeah Martin can really play, he has vet leadership and he can get the job done

THE PICKS WERE REALLY NOT HIS FAULT AND I COULDN'T HELP BUT NOTICE THAT HE DIDN'T SMILE WHEN HE THREW THEM. NICE!!!!

Martin has earned the right to stand on the side lines and hold the clip board. Amac has not put in the time yet. it is a ten year thing.
Glad amac is doing other things because it will keeep him with the team.

Martin is an ideal back-up IMO. Maybe AMac can look over his shoulder at the clipboard and learn a thing or two.

I am not saying A-Mac should start...I think Martin is our best option at backup...Bouman had his chance last year and blew it...I just think preseason 4th quarters should be A-Mac's territory this year...I much rather would have watched A-Mac throw that ball to Moore on Sat. at least it would have meant something and it might have not looked like a winged duck getting there....

If there was a fan's choice vote for one of last year's players to be cut I think Bouwoman would already be looking for work elsewhere.

Too bad that AMac's injured and won't be taking too many snaps. Otherwise, I'd be helping Bouman pack his bags.
