Hmm trading a few head shots and concussions and risk of permanent paralysis and 68-hour work weeks to make an equal amount of money sitting in a booth for a few hours a week? Whatever was he thinking?

Plenty of coaches lost their careers trying to turn Jeff George into Not Jeff George.

And saved $15 million in the bargain

No

Why does everyone think this guy is great? Is it that dazzling smile that briefly seduced you on Sanchez?

I loved it. As messy as reality.

Yeah bitching about a defensive struggle is the kind of shallow sports-bar bullshit that has made the NFL unwatchable. “I want a PRETTY game! Lots of uncontested rainbow 3s! More long reviews to get every call right! No hands, no belly down low!”

Was going to guess Otto Graham but I think he had a better w-L record. So next guess is NFL Warren Moon.

weird, i consider him extremely overrated, but then, I’m no Peter King

I consider him the most overrated player of his generation, but what do I know? I was betting on Manzeil stealing that crown.

You can only measure grit by RINGZZZZ

Can’t wait for the Osweilerian bidding war that inevitably ends in tears and a Browns trade.

To put another way, he played seven seasons, or about half his full career. Yep, HOF material. Put him in the Gale Sayers wing.

I only regret he didn’t go out on a crippling, game-ending playoff Romoception.

with those guys, it never ends with “no.”

From now on, every funeral I attend will result in the line, “Our prayers and wishes are with him/her as he/she transitions.” Also for any friend undergoing a sex change.

I’ve been alive for five of them and this team is by far the “worst” of the lot, and plenty of better teams didn’t even reach the championship game. Something something one-and-done era.

My favorite shining moment was Emmert on the trophy stage, talking to the crowd, realizing a low rumble of Goodellian-level discontent was building, and quickly passing the mike to Nantz.
