What does AB have?

May I add my thoughts?

I think that even though AB has his problems (throwing as he falls back and that he rarely moves up in the pocket - to name 2) when he is on fire and the team is playing with intensity, he is one of the best in today\'s game. Even this year he has made some amazing throws, but they\'ve all been in the \"big\" games.

Some of you may remember how in 2000 and 2001 he seemed to get off to slow starts in games, but things really seemed to click in the second half. We didn\'t see that too much in 2002, but I think that is going to be his legacy....winning games in the fourth quarter. I\'m not saying he\'ll be the greatest ever and I wont rule out Jake as a good QB, but like I said when AB is on it, there are few better in the league.

AB seems to be able to read defenses efficiently, he can definitely get the ball down field, and I\'ll go so far as to say that he does have \"touch\" he just didn\'t show it much this year. What AB needs is an o-line that plays with intensity and to be more like a boss or a \"field general\" as they say, than just one of the guys which is what I think he wants to be.

Sorry for the long rants...I just can\'t seem to express myself in a non-lengthy manner.
