    I'm not sure why it has to be racial all the time. When you watch English, German or French soccer the announcers don't compare players based on their skin color. They don't say look at Rashford or Aubameyang (who are black) he is a good scorer but is he better than Aguero (who is white)? Why in the US everything has to be about skin color?

    I was out at a very nice restaurant having dinner last night and had to ask the bartender if they were getting a direct feed from a Houston Station. That's how bad it sounded.

    That crew is getting blown up next year. I like Whitten as a analyst, he breaks it down but stays out of the way. I don't know if they CAN do better than Sal and jason, but Boogey man and his hotdog cart gotta hit the road

    "you want to be up at half"

    "it's better to be leading in the 4th"

    "I'd rather of have him caught that there"

    "You can run the clock down with the lead here"

    "The older you are the more it takes your body to recover"

    I mean REALLLY BOOGER???!!


    No racist either, if Romo was saying that shit I'd say get out. He seems like a nice enough guy, but the stuff he says is like talking to someone who doesn't even know the rules

    Warren Moon, Michael Vick and Randall Cunningham were tough back in the day.. I put those 3 guys way ahead of the top black QB's of today.

    Randall Cunningham could throw the football the length of the field.. Talk about a hail mary pass from endzone to endzone, that boy had an arm!!


    Some other notable long throws in this vid..

    Vick does not deserve to be anywhere near that sentence, but yes the other two were great

    Vick early years in Atlanta was basically the best running back in the league throwing the ball.. He had wheels like no other QB in history. Vick was a step ahead of the field and like a video game.

    Vick was like Deshaun Watson is now. The problem with Watson is the league has seen that before and has adjusted to running QB's. When Vick came out no one has seen college run offenses in NFL. It was still the 90's NFL with Aikman, Young and Favre where there was a pocket for the QB to throw the ball and he couldn't get out of it.

    Takes more than athleticism to become an elite NFL QB

    Agreed look at Tom Brady and Payton Manning.. Those 2 QB's had very good pocket presence and could slide out of the way of pass rushes to throw the ball, but neither could run for the life of them.. Slow as molasses but yet 2 of the best ever..

    How Many Playoff victories though? People forget BREES was drafted in 2nd round after Vick. How did that turn out?

    Well he made 6 playoff games and I know he beat Favre in lambeau.

    There are a zillion examples of players especially qb's drafted before or after another guy and it was a bad pick or good pick etc. How about all of those dumbfukk teams who passed on the short drew brees who had little arm strength? Did u call them out back then in the 2001 draft?

    And what about Archie manning? Amazing player but how many rings? The team you are on and the offensive line and the playmakers around you and the defense you have backing you it all matters. Just ask Dan Marino.

    Exactly

    Ya I grew up in that era. Lulz stop him running at he'll throw 45% clip and never win anything. Pro Bowl is from the fans who found him "exiciting", it means nothing.

    Did you know that?

    Fan voting accounts for one-third of the Pro Bowl process, with players' and coaches' votes making up the remaining two-thirds.

    Yea, that was brutal! Not as much to say about Andy Luck who was lighting up the Texans in the first half and just had to manage the game in the second. If Luck had the pedal down the whole game he would have had 350+
