    Yep. Check your sarcasm meter. This all originated from Rolltide's asinine belief that stats make the player and they never lie.

    Don't worry, man. Our FO knows what they're doing.

    We'll extend Levitre, Oher, Wimbley, and Griffin. Then we'll name Clipboard Jesus the starter and draft the rapist.

    Even if you throw the stats away Mett has made throws that only legit QBs make. This is undeniable. The kid is a gamer and very tough. The irony of all this is that if we draft a rookie in the first this year you and people like you will be salivating if the kid puts up numbers half as good as Mett.

    Yes he is our GUY. Spend the draft and FA on ****ing O linemen that want to play football. Also, Find a Jersey name that better fits J. Hunter because J.A.G. is not it. I wish he was as good as Just Any Guy. He is soft as a mashmellow.

    Mett is the not the problem with this football team. I saw a player today who hates to lose. He didn't lose this game. We gave way more problems on this team. It's not all about his stats. It's about attitude and toughness. If luck was inthe 2015 draft yes I woukdcsay go and get a QB. I don't see one that I would want to draft top 5-10. We need a playmaker. Even if we did draft one, is he going to play and start over Mett next year. We need playmakers on this team.

    I'm starting to think Mettenberger is our QB of the future. He's looked improved in every game since being named starter. He still has obvious flaws, but he's a rookie. He holds the ball too long and is a stick-in-mud while in the pocket. In order to beat this he needs to think quicker and have a fail route to throw to. Add in a crappy offensive line and he's going to take alot of sacks and those kill are drives. We've also have had an extremely unsuccessful run game, avg'n 92.5 yard a game, which is 26th in the league.

    Overall, Mettenberger is the exact type of QB that Whiz likes. He has an arm, he has leadership qualities, and he's learning the playbook. Once he starts to really sync up with Walker, Wright, Hunter, Sankey, etc & we get an improved OL - I think he could be very Phillip Rivers-esque of last year under Whiz.

    Yup, and they can make fast reads. Mett cannot make fast reads. That needs to change. It can change but it is not easy.

    You can't possibly evaluate a guy who doesn't have time to throw it, games are out of reach by the start of the 4th, has played below average to bad defenses, and has little weapons to work with.

    Anyone who thinks that Mett is 'our guy', is lying to themselves. The body of work just is not there, and it likely won't be this season.

    I really doubt he's the guy. Gotta draft a QB.

    I have seen nothing that would make me believe he definitely is or isn't our guy yet. Too early.
