Quote:He's around Ryan Mallet level but without the attitude problem. Going into last year you were convinced having "the guy" was going to help you. too.

Yeah, last year I was convinced Mallett was the guy, but O'Brien had something for Hoyer. I can't explain that. Had O'Brien got over whatever it was he didn't like about Mallett I'm sure we'd have had a better season.


Hoyer was benched week 1 because he was obviously she'll shocked. I still don't know why Mallett was benched a few weeks later. He took a breather instead of taking a time out & O'Brien didn't let him back in.


Then Mallett the headcase started showing up more & more.


Again, it doesn't bother me you don't have high hopes for Osweiler. I don't either.


I don't even remember which QBs beat you last season. I wouldn't doubt Jacksonville wasn't a notch on Hoyer's belt, meaning we probably could have beat you with Chad Henne.


Next year... we'll see. I hope Osweiler is as good as Mallett. That would be a step in the right direction.
