Jordan Football

It is difficult to compare players separated by almost 20 years.

Check the record book, p. 45 (http://www.gogriz.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/mont-footbl-yearbook.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). Jordy has a long way to go.

Jordy plays in a different kind of offense -- Dickenson played in a passing offense. Jordy threw 19 passes against UND. DD threw 72 against Idaho in 1995. DD's completion percentage 1993-95: 68.7% avg. (67.2%, 68.2%, 67.9%), a record at the time.

Mobility? DD had 20 rushing TDs, third in UM history at the time.

By the time he graduated in 1995, DD had NCAA Division I-AA records including
Highest completion percentage
Highest percentage of passes for a touchdown
Fewest interceptions per pass
13,486 yards
etc.

In 1995, Dickenson's senior season, he threw for 5,676 yards in fifteen games, including 1,500 in four playoff games. After leading the Grizzlies to the I-AA national championship in 1995, Dickenson won the 1995 Walter Payton Award as the outstanding offensive player in Division I-AA.

Just a little hindsight.

Not to mention there were many games Dickenson did not play the final one or two quarters because the game was already out of reach so he could have easily went over six grand passing.
 
Impossible to compare JJ and DD statistically. Different times, coaches, and styles. If JJ wins a FCS Championship with good stats in his given offense, then he deserves to be mentioned in the conversation. I am sure we are all hoping for that.

The kid has his head on his shoulders. I really enjoyed when they cut to him chuckling on the sideline when they ran the bootleg with Smithwick-Hann. There seems to be a good vibe with this team. Wilson's molestation of Counts in the end zone proves this..
 
Way too early. Is he one of the btter quarterbacks we have had? Yes. As good as DD Most liekly not but win a NC then we can talk.
