see Rex Grossman and Chad Pennington. didn't Troy Aikman start his career 1-15 with Dallas? they saw talent in him and kept him as the starter winning numerous Superbowls. nowadays if a team is 1-5 they are seriously considering a change at QB even if its not your fault and your making the right passes. why has this changed?


also Matt Lienart and Vince Young all started as Rookies and weren't too prepared for it although VY is an outstanding talent I think if he rode the bench he'd be even better.

"they saw talent" in Aikman
...that's where you lose Grossman
teams need to win now....and wasting time on a QB who has shown no signs of greatness isn't going to make anybody associated with that organization happy

as for Pennington.....he's had his chances, and played well.....but he's certainly not getting better....so they're looking towards the future

Vince Young.........."outstanding talent"
....I'll have to take your word on that one



to answer your question:
probably
but that's the way it needs to be

teams...unlike a lot of fans...realize that you can't blame the QB for everything
if the rest of the team sucks, there isn't much the QB can do Report It

I would say yes. And, there also seems to be a lot of indecision at the QB position. With teams switching the starter every few games I'm not sure how the offense ever gets used to the changes.

QBs get the boot quicker now because there is more pressure to win right away. NFL coaches dont have time to sit through 1-15 seasons because they will be fired. Loyalty and rebuilding are not what the used to be, so coaches rotate QBs to give the team the "best chance to win" right away.

Yes and should

Rex Grossman couldnt even handle the snap.He was constantly doing things to help the other team win.As a coach you can only have so much patience for that.

Just seems so this year. I think teams like the Colts and Patriots force losing teams to scramble. Colts, Patriots, Steelers have proven to be perennial winners this decade. Year after year, these teams either win SBs or have winning seasons. Other teams struggle. So they have to quickly get results - impatience. Kinda unfortunate. Some of those QBs probably wouldve done better in other teams. But FB is a full team sport. Colts and Pats have proven that personnel management is key. So... maybe the league needs to find better personnel people first. Then players...
