[QUOTE="FrankRizzo, post: 525345, member: 2232"] I don't care what the professionals say. The professionals are often wrong, as are coaches. I coached. I made personnel decisions. Sometimes, I probably erred. Kurt Warner was deemed by the professionals not worthy of being drafted. Were they right or wrong? Then years later, he became a magician out of nowhere, and 1999 he went from nobody to MVP. A few years later, the professional Rams gave up on him. Were they right or wrong? Then the Giants brought him in..... and he did okay but not great. Then they let him go for Eli. Right or wrong? Nobody else, professionals, wanted him. So the Cardinals brought him in. He took them to the Super Bowl in 2008. Then he beat us, sliced us up, in the 2009 playoff game like nobody ever.... ball barely hit the ground. He beat Rodgers. There are a lot of errors in judgment. Tim Tebow and Vince Young cannot throw better than I can. I'll take my arm over them thank you. But they battle and they have won a lot of close football games. That's demonstrated. How good as Tennessee done after Young left? They went to Jake Locker with a 1st round pick. How's that worked better than what Young gave them? Prettier passes maybe? I always prefer ugly WINS to pretty LOSSES. You all thought Young had made our team as backup QB, even after that Chiefs game. It was a shock, and I think it was an overreaction to one game at a good Chiefs team. But then again, we'll never know because they went with Seneca instead. All I know is that, for various reasons, failed. [/QUOTE]
