    Per Jim Wyatt Bell said "Mettenberger took some shots vs Texans he had no business taking".



    Generally I wouldn't care what Bell had to say as he's pretty bad himself, but Im glad someone is speaking up. We have to stop letting Mett play, he is killing us.

    Literally....

    Killed his perceived trade value, he still has an arm (but windup is far too long), so try and keep him and develop him. I would still try and pick up another QB than CBJ to compete for the #2 job. But I would keep Mett on the roster for sure.

    I took the quote as an indictment of how the OL played, not Mett.

    Ive seen all I need to from Mett to say he's a true 6th round QB...

    At least with Locker, Young and everyone else whos stepped in they found ways to squeeze out a win...

    Bell took us right out of FG range with a stupid penalty.....he needs to be accountable for his own crap. I think what he meant was he shouldn't have been out there in the first place = "No business taking"

    Whiz's best call was to swap out Stankey on kick return duties 4 weeks later.....something that was evident to everyone a while back.

    Leave us to hang the Mett

    so then Bell is challenging Whiz' play calling?

    I like that even better

    For as much sh*t as Locker has taken, and love Mett has received ... Locker has been the far better QB. At least Locker had games where he looked like a #10 pick (even if they were followed by terrible games). Mett has had 1 decent game his entire career.
