CANFIELD SUCKS!!!!!!
 
like seriously this guy is just running around throwing ducks, not making good decisions he looks very baaad.....for real he couldnt hit the water if he fell out the boat

While he did make bad decisions, all the picks weren't his fault. I mean I would have loved for our 3rd string/practice squad quarterback to stomp over their 1st and 2nd string defense, but it's clear why he's just a developmental prospect.

Not really a big deal... just like the game.

AllSaints 09-01-2011 09:11 PM

yuhhh i didnt expect much from him anyway....

st thomas 09-01-2011 09:30 PM

I've just watched the highlights so far and read the stats, Canfield was 29/39 for 249yds a TD and 2INTs (where one should have been a catch and the other was stupid).

Does the stats make justice to his performance? I mean thats a 74% completion ratio, thats pretty good if you ask me.

MatthewT 09-02-2011 01:01 AM

I still haven't watched the game (probably won't) judging from the stats it looks like he may have earned himself another year on the practice squad. He is still a pretty decent prospect and probably has a lock on the 3rd string spot, which for the Saints is a practice squad spot.

Seer1 09-02-2011 06:44 AM

If he were our QB, I'd dig out my old grocery sack with the eye holes cut out of it, but he's not. It was a major stink-out in the Dome and the D and special teams had just as much to do with that as Canfield. Now there's just under a week until some real football. (Unless our idiots in Washington figure out a way to screw that up!)

Saint_LB 09-02-2011 06:56 AM

Well....??

Did everybody just thoroughly enjoy that game?

Isn't preseason wonderful??? :)

I just don't get it. I guess it's the same with a lot of things in America. We will take what they dish-out in most cases and just go around singing, "La la la".

We should not have to pay to watch an NFL team evaluate their guys that are on the bubble. I say that like I do pay, which I don't...not for a preseason game. The only way I go to one of those is if somebody gives me the tickets and springs for the gas money, concession money, and then beignets on the way home. The beignets would make the trip worth while.

He was also playing with 3rd string receivers. Hard to judge him when he doesn't get to play with Colston, Moore, Graham and Hendersen.

I totally disagree. Payton and Brees has done a great job with the kid. He has great mechanics. He throws a tight accurate ball. He made quick decisions, had good pocket awareness and had good mobility. He made two bad decisions all night. He didn't get rid of the ball out of the end zone quick enough and he threw against his body back over the middle of the field. Two rookie mistakes. He was 29 out of 39 with atleast 4 drops including an interception and moved the team all night. Frankly, I think he's better than what the Seahawks, 49ers, Redskins and Panthers will be starting opening day.

Whatever you do - don't hold back. That would be bad for the soul.

I agree that paying (much) for a preseason game is lame & just naother way to bilk the fans out of thier money BUT it still has it uses.

Got to see a lot of kids working thier butts off for a shot at the bigs!! :)

Now this I totally agree with. How my wife made it through 35 years and counting I have no idea. I don't think I coulda lived with myself for that long.

If the general populous wasn't willing to pay for preseason games, then they wouldn't charge for them.

As for the QBs:
Drew: Top 3
Chase Daniel: Starter for many teams
Canfield: Back-up for most teams with upside. I bet if this were San Fran, Oakland or Cleveland he would have a solid chance to start, though even if he did he probably wouldn't do very well.

Highlite of the night was the one handed stab by AA....That was nice! Everything else sucked balls. Before the game, Bobby Hebert said some thing to the effect that the most important thing to take away from the game would be the turnover ratio. We were something like +1 so far thru the preseason. He said that was a stat that can be more of a state of mind, and even though it is PS, it's important to stay in the positive. I lost track of how many turnovers we had, but I know we aren't in the + anymore!!

I agree. There were several throws that were on the money, or at least very catchable, that were dropped or bobbled. Hard to get a good evaluation of him when he's throwing to guys who don't have a roster spot.

Now, he did make some poor decisions, that's undeniable. But I think, overall, he looked ok for a 3rd. string QB. You'd have to put him out there with the 1's to get a good evaluation. Brees or Daniel would have had a tough time playing with that O.

Luda34 09-02-2011 10:28 AM

You know why his wearing number 4 thats Steve Walsh old number

jcp026 09-02-2011 10:32 AM

He was better than I expected, but that's not saying much.

dog gone funny S. LB. been there doing that also

Euphoria 09-02-2011 01:41 PM

Ok this is the worse thread of the year so far right!>!>!

I totally disagree that he sucks. Aside from one mistake it looks good. You can't blame him for most of the INTs that is purely WR's for not catching the ball. He made good decisions except for one chalk it up lesson learned.

I would seriously keep a spot for him on the roster to keep developing but to bad we have to have 2 Kickers AGAIN!

over all he did a pretty good job coming in and playing with 3 string WR's and against starters on D.

saints1234 09-02-2011 02:28 PM

i totally say he sucks and would not keep him as the third string towel boy, yes he had bad WRs on the field but he did nothing to impress me at all. he couldnt get the offense moving at all and if it was not for J.Bell on the field with him the ball would have never crossed the 50 yard line

sorry but i did not like what i saw

Euphoria 09-02-2011 04:40 PM

Offense moving???? What game did you see... it wasn't the Saints and Tenn was it???

29 for 39
249 yards - 341 yards total offense.
3rd string QB that isn't bad at all.

You're argument doesn't hold water.

We aren't asking him to beat out Brees. But to develop it and keep learning that isn't bad.

saints1234 09-02-2011 08:32 PM

he all so throw two interceptions and safety he didnt get all those yards until the end of the game
