Quote:Pretty sure Leftwich was drafted between Garrard and Gabbert.

 

 

I hope you get the drift.

 

Leftwich failed, and we settled on the backup instead of looking outside for a franchise QB.

 

8 far too long years between QB drafts, until Gabbert was finally brought in desperation to turn the franchise around..  A decade lost.  *poof*

 

It's difficult to understand how those types of decisions are made.  A perfect storm, I suppose.

 

A GM that saw himself in Leftwich and didn't want to bail on him, then a rookie HC who was desperate for stability at the expense of not improving the position.  When Gabbert arrived, that marked the third time we hit the mat... and unfortunately for us, the TKO.
