I have to admit, i'm very curious to see Keenum suit up and play.
I remember when he came in against the Rams and I knew then the game was over and he threw a pic six to Olgetree
I'd rather Keenum run 5 pays well than Davis run the entire O poorly.
That was TJ Yates, not Keenum. Keenum 1st 2 games were vs playoff teams KC and Indy where he threw for a combined 620 yards with 4 td and 0 picks. 1 point loss on the road in his first start to an undefeated KC team (at the time) and then a defensive melt down to Indy where the D couldnt hold an 18 point lead late in the game.Why? Keenum is smaller than Davis with similar arm strength....I just don't understand what anybody sees in a guy that was 0-7 as a starter last year. I remember when he came in against the Rams and I knew then the game was over and he threw a pic six to Olgetree...I do understand he's a gamer, however, to me he's just like Austin Davis and I still don't understand for the life of me why the Rams did not claim Ryan Griffin from the Saints.
Wow, that makes me feel a lot better about Keenum. That said, Hill needs to stay healthy as he gives the Rams the best chance to win.That was TJ Yates, not Keenum.

If Austin Davis did anything remotely close to that in his career, you'd see some more confidence in him.
The idea that he's only been on the team the last 2 years because of injury to Bradford, and he was awful last week certainly leave room for doubt.
That said, 3 QB on active roster this week? Ugh....
I just think he's got something. Call it a hunch. Keenum was in the worst possible situation last season. The majority of that team had just mailed it in and i liked how Keenum tried to make plays despite being thrown into the fire like he was.Why?

If Hill can't play, I kind of hope so. Wish Keenum had been with us all off-season. IMO, he'd be playing over Davis. I don't think Keenum is great but Davis just has so many issues. I'm hoping for the best, though.
I want to see what the Keenum kid can do with better talent around him than he had last year in 7 gm's with a Houston team that had quit.
Kellen Clemens? I don't think any QB that's ever played in the NFL has been at best Kellen Clemens, let's not be ridiculous. As for him or Griffin, give me the guy with actual game time experience, helps me sleep better at night.I get it sir, but I just don't see it at best I see Kellen Clemens and it took Clemens years to get to where he is now. Believe me I would love this kid to be special, but I truly wished they passed on him and claimed the bigger, stronger Ryan Griffin from the Saints instead!
Fisher was asked, on his talk show, if he's ever 'Pulled a QB' from a game in his coaching career, and he said "MAYBE" once. So the BIG question is would Fisher pull him!?Maybe I'm crazy, but if Hill doesn't practice and Davis gets most of thje reps. ( which he may not be) I think he can play better than he has ,however if he stinks the first half up , what's to lose?
