It's really something, I was reading MB's latest article, and now Zane Beadles is commending CJ with having a mature, veteran attitude/work ethic. Really cool, seeing that Zane started in a SB, played with Tebow and Peyton Manning, so he knows what "type" of maturity/confidence a QB should express.

Let's make no bones, like our head coach, CJ grew up in a respected NFL family environment. CJ saw more pro quarterbacks practice as a kid in SD than most kids getting pee wee football snaps. CJ has far to go, but this kid was born to play pro-style football.

If he wins the backup job, he'll be on his way to being the starter, IMO.

I agree, it seems like he's a very confident fella. It's funny, his grandpa had the clout to get CJ into any big SEC program, yet CJ took less because he wanted a legit pro-style education, hence goes to Iowa. Yet, many scouts believe CJ would've probably fared better if he acually had "big school talent" surrounding him. This only adds to CJ's toughness and resolve.

Drafting Kittle and Beathard together was an omen imho -- counter-intuitive to when Walsh and Holmgren stashed Young and B-Jones away into a little room for years. I still feel bad for Rathman, he couldn't bum Brent's training camp fridge, as initially promised.

Totally agree.

Yup, and if he does win it - the front office is going to be really hard pressed to justify going after Cousins if you have the younger and cheaper version already on your team.

Be the cat's azz if CJ really turned out to be the one. Unlikely, but what if...

Doesn't really pass the name test.
