As for T-Jack, I could never dislike the guy. He truly leaves it all on the field. I wouldn't be happy going into 2012 with him as the starter, but as part of our depth chart, I have no problems with him, and think he becomes a strength... unlike CBJ who was/is/always will be a complete joke. I don't mind the dent T-Jack is putting in Mr. Allen's wallet, but I did mind CBJ's contract... much more so than is probably healthy.

I'd say that with the caveat of "relevant to the talent of the opposing defenses". I mean the strike year was an absolute joke and a testament to why they should not expand the league - so it does not count in my data. Why it didnt look as bad as it could have been, was the talent of Tarvaris Jackson. #1 - that QB can take a hit like none other. A more fragile QB, our beloved Hass' would have ended his career last year. As much as I slam t-jack, I am pulling for him -- not only because he is a good guy, and gives 150%, but because of all of the BS he has been thrown his way in his career. It would be an awesome story if TJ wins the starting QB position. (That said, my logical side says he has little chance).

I haven't been there is a long while though, got a new job and busy with kids so less time for those shenanigans, plus I could no longer justify giving those d-bags money. I do miss the trolling there, it was primo. Speaking of, they see Bobby trollin, they hatin'. You'd think half the posters here were Tjacks cousins. Protip, if you don't want Bobby to go on and on about how much he hates Tavaris, don't reply defending Tavaris. Macabrevity, in response to question on an earlier thread, yes I am the JoSCh from GLB.

And our qbs are relatively young.

I can just imagine the crap he must give opposing wide-outs. I love it. Watching that RealRob report has made me a bigger fan of Sherman, and he was already my favorite defensive player after ET.

We don't have any cap issues, and if the injury bug bites, we'll be happy we have the depth. Sometimes an overpaid player can hurt team morale, especially if that guy is a locker room cancer, but TJ has the team's respect, and Flynn by all accounts should be able to earn it as well. I think we're fine carrying both. I don't see any 'addition by subtraction' in this one. It's the most critical position on the team, and it's unsettled, so it's expected that we'll be overpaying guys until we hit on the guy who's worth a franchise QB salary.

He went from a highly recruited HS QB to one who chose to transfer out of Florida to Maryland than fight out a QB competition with Tim Tebow. Tim "I can't throw" Tebow! Then he gets caught cheating on a test in Maryland and subsequently banished to DII ball and now he's an undrafted QB who spends more time with Gus Bradley so he can give him the what he needs to prepare the defense as a scout QB. At each step, he's been on a downward path. I really don't see any value in keeping him around. This kind of talent can be found late in any draft of any year. Let me put it this way about Portis.

Talking of overpaid Bobby I see you bought up your boy Sidney "Made of Glass'" Rice. Now we can start talking about overpaid. I think Mr Rice wins that one hands down. So complaining about Tjack earning $4 mio a year doesnt really cut it. So what happens if Tjack beats out Flynn for the starter role, do you get on board or we here constant whining when TJack takes a sack instead of throwing it away or throwing it into trafiic. Jees its old and its run its course dude, let it go BobbyK beating on TJack, now theres a shock.
