    In all seriousness I wouldn't be bummed. I wouldn't be bummed with Kolb either. There's a long list of average QB's we could pick up and when quite a few games because of the sheer talent we have on our offense now. We will have to do something about our O-line though. I'm sure Munch being the head coach will get that worked out though.

    You've got to appreciate a thread created by the analytical TorontoTitanFan. Billy Volek might just be the short term answer. I feel good about him coming back, but I fear his abilities are limited. I just mentioned in another thread I'd like us to take a look at thinking QB's. That means no Cam Newton. It's hard to believe Billy is 34 already, but it's nice knowing he's only got that wear-n-tear of a 28 year old QB. Also, has he started at all since he left? That worries me, but playing behind Rivers explains why.

    If this were to be the solution to our QB dilemma, it sure would piss me off to be honest. It'd be like the whole Vince Young thing was a waste of time, which would make me hate Fisher even more.

    He's Phillip Rivers' backup, why would he have been starting? Rivers is a top 5 QB who plays with torn ACLs. Now if he had been Vince's backup, he would've started probably a seasons worth of games or more the past few years.

    The VY thing was a waste of time. A waste of 5 years. Bud INITIALLY said that both needed to get along until Fisher made it a me or him thing. We make an announcement about Young getting the axe, then Fisher quits when his coaches bail on him and we find out he could have been involved in favoritism and shady practices.

    Now we don't bring Young back simply because we made a statement. This organization amazes me.

    Now we're debating Billy Volek and he actually sounds like a decent option...FML ha ha.

    actually Volek told Chow what he thought about his play calling and that got him traded

    Drafting a QB is a mistake this year...we should just wait until next year and get Luck as this team will blow next year and should have the worst record with no QB, no defense, a mediocre at best first year coach with no head coaching or even coordinator experience, etc, so why even bother. Let's just get Andrew Luck in here next year and then we can rebuild and dominate in a few years when we get a real head coach in here.

    And no to Volek..just no OP.

    When players talk around here they get the axe (or used to) ha ha.

    At this point I really don't even care who we have at QB. If we're not Super Bowl contenders I'm dissapointed. We've went through our rebuilding phase and have a pretty Young team. It's time to shoot for a championship.

    Every thread does not have to be about VY.

    I know how you feel CJtheBeast, which is also why I'd not be too interested in Volek's return. But we should be looking under every rock under the sun to find someone to carry us through 2011. I HATE not being a contender, it makes the entire year suck, but if Volek is the answer then cool beans. I also like what Josh Johnson from the Bucs could bring to the table. He's more versatile than Vince was, and we might see the wildcat if Josh Johnson were to come in. I know he's nearly a carbon copy of Vince, and also under contract til 2012, but his mind is right, and he plays hard.

    that wasn't a good example. a rb dump-off and a 1 yard sneak.
    however, watching tht makes me wonder wth they don't use Sproles more, and if they're not gonna , they can send him this way
