Holy Cow did that young man play well. Especially for a rookie. Admittedly he was playing against our backups with all the injuries we had, but that doesn't matter to me, because I could see that he didn't get rattled, and it was his play that kept getting those 4th downs.

Now I know how people felt when they were playing against rookie Russell Wilson. Big difference is that Cam Ward will be good during a long career.

I really am not bragging, but I watched him at wsu.. I said I would love to see him with a good running game at the time. He went to Miami and did pretty damn good, enough to be the number one pick. Sometimes you can just tell when a dude has the it factor. And I posted all this in the ncaa forums lol

Running is not his game, if our D was healthy, he wouldn't have done
much of anything, like Sander's people acting like these guys are mega
stars, I see this every year and there is only a couple, these two are far
away from them.

Naw man, Ward is legit. I watched him and I knew he had the traits a few years ago. He will be at minimum an average to above average starting qb in the league at some point. If he was on the Hawks and we didnt have Sam, he would be growing every week a hell of a lot faster with the better roster. The titans as a whole are not that good right now lol

He gets some pieces around him and I think he'll be very good. He definitely played his best game so far against us. He just has very little around him

Absolutely dude. I loved the 30 minute drive to watch him when he was here. I was hoping the Hawks would have drafted him, but he ended up getting a bunch of money to go to Miami his last year. Can't blame him

We will see, it's just my opinion and I never crown QBs quickly.
If I did on Me3, he had us all fooled for a bit.

Imo, he’s legit. He doesn’t really have any weapons beside him sans that rookie receiver (who actually had a helluva game against us).

He’s poised…can move…and can make next to impossible throws.

We may have been down a few on D but not on the D-line…time and time again he made plays.

Watching him in-person was quite impressive.

I would say that Ward's floor is league average, maybe a bit below.. But I think his ceiling could be top 5. Some of the stuff I saw him do as a coug was pretty damn impressive

I can see Top 5 as well.

He’s definitely one of the better ones that’s been drafted in the last few years.
