Gators DT Sharrif Floyd on Teddy Bridgewater: “Of all the QBs we played, he was the best one. Manziel don’t compare to him.”

Uh.. Duh?

If Bridgewater was on A&M, the stats would be identical or better.

There's never been a QB more dependent on a system for their success than Manziel

Comparing just the 2 games, I agree.

Bridgewater dismantled Florida. He's in the way too early Heisman discussion.

There's a lot of truth to what he's saying. I bet Bridgewater is going to be a much better NFL QB than any of the current SEC QBs.

I can see that. Bridgewater has immense pocket presence, can actually use his periphery (mett and driskel lack this ability) and reads his progressions perfectly. Hopefully manziel can develop to be like him or better. If he can he'll be fantastic with his combined run ability.

Manziel was playing UF -really- early in the season. It's safe to say he developed a good bit, lol.

Also, one was a Heisman winner and the other wasn't even in New York. I don't give a damn what the stats say even if it's in JFF's favor... I highly doubt Bridgewater would have handled us like Manziel did. At the end of the day, the only way to know who the better QB truly is is how they do in the NFL. I think that's the most fair test.

Oddly enough, LSU got singled out last night for placing higher priority on Mettenberger over Bridgewater, yet ESPN never mentioned that his home state school Florida didn't even offer him a scholarship. Florida signed Driskell and that other bum that stood on the sidelines last night.

Why no mention of that?

Teddy Bridgewater - another guy that wasn't good enough to get a UF offer at QB. And his buddy Eli Rogers, who was probably better than any of the Gator receivers yesterday, also not good enough.

As many Ags have said, this makes sense. JFF against UF didn't even throw the ball over 20 yards, he was basically just a runner and throwing short passes playing in his first game.

It's a joke to say he is a "system qb" though. Look at any Manziel highlight reel and you will see a ton of plays that no coach would ever draw up, esp the "evade 3 guys in the backfield and run for 20 yards" plays or the "scramble around for 10 seconds and throw across your body" plays.
