    Being an NFL exec is different than being an NFL PLAYER.

    And yes, I would concede my knowledge to any NFL player. Why would I think I know more about the game when I spent 4 years of studying it part time and they spent 4 years part time, plus x number of years full time studying the game??

    Makes no sense to me.

    There's some very knowledgeable posters on here that really break down the games, but there's gonna be a lot of things about football that you can't understand just by watching.

    There's much more to football than X's and O's.


    Common sense.

    Sure.

    My credibility is infinitely better than yours when it comes to football players because I've NEVER made comment as dumb as:

    VY BETTER THAN AARON ROGERS AND MOST HOF QBZ!!!!!!!!!!

    And its funny that Alex posted my responses, but didn't post what lead me to those responses. It was basically me and 2 or 3 other posters against the entire board and we were called everything under the sun for our opinions.



    To throw so much ish around you guys sure are sensitive.

    Well obviously.

    You don't think execs know anything about spotting talent? That is kind of their job. Granted, some of them fail miserably, but I don't know if four of them can be wrong about the same guy after he's been in the league for almost eight years. One of whom, Ted Thompson, played in the NFL for almost a decade and is considered one of the best at what he does.

    Just face it, VY just wasn't that good.

    Does CJtheBeast have more football knowledge than Bud Adam's grandson?

    You can say he wasn't that good all you want but his stats the last 2 seasons and his win percentage prove otherwise.

    I'm not even gonna argue that point. It's been done to death. If he sucked half of his teammates wouldn't have wanted him back.

    If he didn't suck a team would have employed him by now. Hell, one of the other three teams he signed with had the opportunity to keep him despite shaky depth and starters.

    Exactly. I used to be one of the biggest VY supporters, but no one can be this naive.

    He's been cut about 3 times before he left Tennessee. He hasn't looked all that impressive against 3rd stringers in what little preseason time he's gotten, he was also a pick machine in Philly, and no GM in the world is thinking about calling him right now.

    I think he sucked, sucks, and will always suck. At the same time, you can't be equally naive to say he was ineffective in his last 2 seasons here. I think Fisher did a good job to mold a system around him to hide a lot of his negatives, and VY as dumb as he is was here for so long he finally started learning the nuances of our offense and it showed.

    He screwed up any chance he had at being a mainstay in the NFL, because he was never any good, he just fit our system.
