  1. IMO, Painter has looked good every game this year and I do believe he is the answer to the Backup position! Clearly the more experience he has gotten through practice reps with the first team are starting to pay off! I've said it the last 3 weeks - if he had been named the starter the second Manning went down we would be 3-1 right now. :)

    yeah, he played well against the bucs and so far against the chiefs. but still i think it's too early to cheer. let's see what he can do against good teams. but off course i hope he improves with every game.

  2. Well, Painter did better than expected! But todays game is still no reason to cheer. 13/30 (44%) is bad without a doubt. 281 yards and 2 TD looks good BUT a lot of these yards thanks to huge runs from Pierre Garcon. At least no interception. So jury is still out let's see how he plays in the next games

  3. Tryons out and its his fault only and thats all I can say on the subject

    yes, it is his fault. he is better than Lacey and better players have to go like Brandstater outplayed Painter and they cut him. I can't see why it is Tryons fault and to be honest I cant stand Bill Polian anymore. He made some good decisions in the past but he also made some weird decisions in the last 2 years

  4. true but one bad fumble after coming in cold like he did doesnt make him a bad QB either.

    Thats right. But let's face it he had one good drive so far and looked terrible in the other games he played including preseason. At this moment Painter isn't giving me any reason to cheer and I'm still thinking we need to address the backup situation for Peyton next year. No reason to cheer, let's see what he can do in the next games...

  5. I don't blame Collins! I blame Polian and the whole front office for signing their starter 2 weeks before the first game out of retirement. I blame them for ignoring the backup situation behind Manning for years and everybody knew the day that Peyton would miss a game or two would come...
