I completely agree. The one thing that I've seen with Ramsey, namely in the Vikings game was how he looked deep(er) first and then checked down second. Prior to this game, it always seemed like he was always looking for the short pass. It was almost as though Gibbs has scared the 'Slinger' out of him, which is a good thing. In the Vikings game, it was great to see him go downfield and to be perfectly honest, many of his passes were dead-on.

The only problem now is with protection. Jansen's return will definitely help and maybe a 2nd or 3rd rounder to bolster the rest of the line (Joe Bugel knows how to mold them). I mean is it just me or does everyone else KNOW exactly when Ramsey is going to complete a pass before he even throws it? EVERY time I see him step up into the pocket and throw, its always ALWAYS a completion, even if it's 20+ yards downfield. However, as soon as the feet start getting happy it's almost a guaranteed incompletion/interception. I think maturity and having a little bit more time to throw the ball will make Ramsey not only an above average QB, but do I dare say one of the top 10 in the league?
