That would be sending all the wrong messages; "Here's $26.5 million guaranteed, and by the way, we still don't think you're going to be the man in future so we're going to pay/draft this other dude as well."

He should have never gave that extension. Two games does not a complete career turnaround make.

What you fail to understand that if they did not give him the extension, and (i know it didnt ) if we had won the division and made it to the playoffs. WE would be Paying him next year a much much much larger contract. They took a chance so they could lock him up if he performed. and the first quarter of the season he did preform. if the injuries didnt take us out and the defense didnt lose so many games for us he would still be the starting QB.
