Quote:Gus should've been pink slipped last week after losing to that 40 year old quarterback

I wish people would stop qualifying the loss as bad just because it was "a 40 year old QB".


Brady is 38. Should we have beaten him?

Manning is 39. Should we expect to beat him?

Favre was 40 and in the NFC Title game (close to going to the Superbowl).


Losing to a QB that's 40 isn't a terrible excuse. If you want to qualify it and say "lost to a washed up 40 year old backup QB who's skills are severely diminished," then okay.


But, even though Hasselbeck isn't what he once was,, I still think he's pretty savvy in ways that made him very good a few years ago.
