OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Kyle Boller dropped back in the pocket, scanned the field, cocked his arm and tossed a spiral far downfield. Marcus Robinson sprinted under the ball and made the catch in stride, one step ahead of the defender.

Brian Billick was quoted, "Just look at what I told you, I know quarterbacks."

</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
Moral of the story...let's wait till they hit the field with an active opposing defense before declaring them a world class quarterback.

Sorry about that.  The point was Kyle Boller had the same kind of praise heaped upon him when he started out.
