Quote:So, in the end... how'd that work out for us?

 

There were many who incorrectly believed that we were "set" at QB, including the FO, and we neglected the position for nearly a decade.

 

That false sense of security has cause the QB position to look like it does today.

 

Had we started drafting QBs and bringing in FAs as short term solutions (McNair, Warner, Hasselbeck all became available and would have been fine solutions as we groomed a draft pick,) we wouldn't be rock bottom as we are today.

 

Since Brunell, we've had no viable franchise QB on the roster and we've only made two efforts to draft one (Leftwich, Gabbert.)

 

We're QB starved, because we quit.  We thought we had our "solution" on the roster at the time.  Well, look where that got us.

 

I expect at least one QB drafted, another brough in FA to compete for the job.

 

Whoever wins it... If some of you can't stand united behind our next QB (for once,) well...

 

I think we are on the same page with this one. Garrard was the worst kind of QB. Even worse than a total bust. He is a just good enough guy. Just good enough to get you to 8-8. Maybe better in the perfect situation. We saw that in 2007. Elite running game, good defense. 11 wins. And then the next three years were at or under .500. I think you will find alot of us wanted the team to draft a QB early in 2008, 2009 and 2010. The fact they did not is inexcusable.
