but as I've said many times on this board - in one of the most miraculous occurrences of my life I was following Kurt Warner before he ever made the Ram's roster... watched, I think, every game he played in Europe.
Kurt had it. You could see it. I know you're not 'comparing' Kurt to Keenum but having seen Keenum now, unless he has regressed a LOT, NEVER showed anything like Kurt did.
Here's my take on Keenum - one of those who doesn't see him as the 'answer'. First... I could be wrong. That only doesn't bother me in the least to admit but I pray that it's true. In Keenum's debut last year he looked just abysmal to me. Horrid. By season's end, and just like several others have said on this board, he had 'won me over' in the sense that it was refreshing to see a Ram player on the field giving everything he had and doing so at all times. But I never saw anything in Keenum to make me think he was the 'answer'.
Today some people are posting old player analysis of Keenum when Keenum was coming in to the NFL.. their criticisms match perfectly with what I'm seeing from Keenum on the field. He's not a 'horrid' QB (like my first impression), or even close to that. I like having him on the roster, and as a 'backup' I think one would be hard pressed to do better... but as the 'starter' it seems to me the Ram's are behind the curve. We have to have better play from the QB position. - JamesJM
