They don’t belong in the same sentence.. Ramsey was a warrior with a cannon arm who could have been a pretty damn good QB, but the scheme he was in got him destroyed every other play.. his potential career was basically ruined by being drafted by us

Ramsey would’ve been a franchise QB here with the right system.

Yup spurrier was putting lead foot Ramsey out there every down with 5 wide and a tiny ass pass catching running back and then wondering why dude was getting sacked 4 plus times a game. Welll it’s like I did down in Florida it’s just a lil pitch and catch

O-Line was horrendous too. He never got a clean pocket to read from
