There was a metaphor there.
Was Lynch one of the guys having issues? That seems like a big issue for a potential back up QB in this system.chris98251":1zwp4wxg said:They were saying the guys they had were having trouble getting a snap from under Center, this is a camp arm that can take a snap and get reps and compete with Lynch, he was in San Diego I guess last year.
This was at rookie mini camp and Lynch was not in attendance.knownone":5eyct7xc said:Was Lynch one of the guys having issues?

This is still Pete's team. We don't need a "camp arm" anywhere as near as much as one of the WCO teams, or those that chuck it 65 times a game. Holmy always needed 4 QBs in camp to avoid the tired arm problem. I don't see us as needing more than 2-3. IMO this is a competition for the #2 QB slot. We might keep one on the PS, too.HawkGA":2zrong83 said:chris98251":2zrong83 said:They were saying the guys they had were having trouble getting a snap from under Center, this is a camp arm that can take a snap and get reps and compete with Lynch, he was in San Diego I guess last year.
Depends on what you mean by camp arm. When I hear camp arm, I think of somebody there to basically throw the ball so the main QBs don't get tired out. I don't see Geno like that at all. I think he is there for a legitimate shot at the backup QB spot. I mean, just taking the bird's eye view of a fan, I don't see any reason why the order wouldn't start out as Wilson-Smith-Lynch versus Wilson-Lynch-Smith.
