This is your opinion, but it isn't necessarily so. Many folks bought Kolb last year too, but not too many folks are claiming it was a waste of money. Let's wait and see how it all plays out before claiming it was a waste of money to buy these guys last year.....for either Leinart or Kolb.
What did Leinart do last year to say to this point they did not waste money?I meant to more say to this point...based on last year...buying low has not gotten you anything and ol Hucksy is already trying to proclaim he is right.
I don't get this at all. Leinart costs more today than he did a year ago, so if you bought a year ago you already will have seen a (very slight) return on investment. Beyond that... we won't know if it was wasted money until we see what Leinart does. Calling Leinart wasted money at this point is being sensationalistic just for the sake of being sensationalistic.
I think there are two primary differences. Kolb looked lost when he was tossed out there in 2008 against Bal. I know Bal makes a lot of QBs look bad- but 10-23 3y/a is really stinking bad. On the other hand Kolb looked like a legitimate NFL QB in 2009- seeing that progress is huge for young players. Leinart on the other hand still looked pretty bad in his few appearances in his 4th season and doesn't seem to be progressing as a QB.The second difference is that Warner retired but Mcnabb was traded. That is a significant difference in the size of the vote of confidence by the coaching staff.
This is exactly the difference between Kolb and Leinart. While LHUCKS wants to believe, and thus wants us to believe, that Leinart has that vote of confidence by his coaching staff, absolutely no one is going to convince me that if Warner had decided to return for 2010 that the coaching staff would not look for one more year of production out of him rather than turn the team over to Leinart.The Eagles, on the other hand, specifically shipped their vet QB off to a division rival.....thus garnering incredulous "votes of confidence" in Kolb.

OofHollywood Matt is a starter on over half the teams in the NFL, and if given the chance will be a perennial pro bowler.
I love the back peddle only a week after annointing him and declaring vindication. Typical.
He'll be nice and healthy now.
Start eating
lhucks will never eat crow on Leinart.... it has been such a monumental ongoing multi-year whiff of a prediction and talent evaluation, yet lhucks will never admit it.Leinart will be out of the league and managing his stock portfolio on Sundays without ever having been a starter after his 1.5 years with the Cards.
All this may be true, but lhucks still has you all wrapped around his finger - hanging on every post.
Lol... nope, just enjoying seeing the multi-year lhucks taunting of the sharkpool play out the way everyone knew it would.
It's time.
That's pretty funny.How's this going?

They both suck. And I'm mad about it. After watching that rose bowl I was convinced we had just seen the future of football. Reggie bush sucks. Leinart sucks. Vy sucks. Jarrett sucks. Lendale sucks. Griffin sucks. Sam baker sucks. I think rod wright is probably the best player to come from that game and I dont even know if he has a job. They all suck. I was looking forward to having a son and popping in that game when a bunch of friends were over for a spend the night in 6Th grade. I looked forward to pointing out all of the hall of fame players playing that night. They all suck. The only story I have to tell is how I used to work with the tramp who was hooked up with Ramonce Taylot at the time. Plate. Of.

Even with his obvious limited intellect, I still think VY could have been incredibly successful if he simply loved the game.It always seemed like he played with zero passion in the NFL.They both suck.

Can you concede that Matt Leinart sucks and that you were wrong and biased by your love of everything USC? Or, will you be a coward and either not post in here or deflect the argument to another player.I think we all agree that VY sucks, some of whom clearly thought otherwise, before. We also all would agree now that Leinart was a big flat flop, some of us earlier than others. You're late to the party on this one. Or, do you still take the contrarian view, as is so hard to do, and still maintain that Leinart is an NFL caliber QB?In the league longer than Vince Young, whom the shark pool proclaimed the next big thing.It's not easy taking contrarian positions, but somebody has to do it.How's this going?
