Who’s your favorite QB bust?

Question is what makes a star athlete a bust?

Some would say James Harden is a bust because he chokes in the playoffs.. Tony Romo the same.. Some have AMAZING regular seasons but then always come up short come playoff time, they panic and choke in the crunch..

Does that make them a bust? I think it does! Champions play best when the lights are the brightest in my book. Show up when it really counts I say!

If they stars they weren’t bust!! Chokers maybe, not bust.

Romo wasn’t even drafted, he was the opposite of a bust!!

Akili Smith or Joey Harrington

Akili Smith or Joey Harrington

Those strong candidates. Isn’t it crazy with nfl becoming such soft offense friendly garbage how few true bust we have now days?? Sure some guys don’t live up like Winston and mariota but they far from the complete worthless bust of the past!! Used to be taking a qb in 1st round was 50/50 at best. Now they all come in and have at least marginal success.

[d2bets]

Surprised nobody has mentioned Johnny Football.

Romo wasn’t even drafted, he was the opposite of a bust!!

I remember watching a 30 for 30 on Tony Romo or Football Life not sure which? Romo was a stud in a small college but didn't he have a lingering injury or something that dropped him basically out of the draft? I can't remember?

Tony Romo was a stud in college from what I remember.. Just because he wasn't drafted high or at all shouldn't determine whether he was a bust or not.. He started on a NFL team, Tony Romo was a sensation and had wheels and a great arm but come playoff time he choked.

Either he tried too hard, pressed and thru INT's or bobbled snaps on extra points.. He couldn't close escrow bottom line Bankers when it counted.. He never worked out and was injury prone always. BUST!!!

undrafted

spent first three seasons as a third or 2nd string QB

he was basically just the special teams holder

he had ZERO expectations

impossible to be a bust when you over achieve that much from original expectations


choker maybe, but not a bust

[inmyownzone]

Biggest bust? Me this morning from this bomb ass handjob I got. Skee skee skeeeeee.

biggest choker? Banker. Duh.

Ironic he started as the special teams holder, didn’t he fumble snap on a fg attempt one year in playoffs? Lol.

Definitely not a bust, as someone else mentioned prob the best un-drafted qb ever. That I recall anyways. Maybe best un-drafted player period?

Didn’t he play baseball in college? Quite a athlete.

[2daBank]

Really liked Matt Hasselbeck

Liked how? Who were all Seattle QBs before they drafted Russ in 3rd round? Another steal! I remember they gave Matt Flynn a big ol contract after showing glimmer of talent as packer backup! Not a draft bust but a contract bust for sure!! Did he ever even start for them or is that year Wilson got drafted and won job??

[blankoblanco]

Lol.

Handjob? Wtf are you 13?!

Thought the same

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

But Wilson isnt a Bust
HASSELBECK was pretty decent and oit us to multiple playoffs and a Superbowl Loss he was kinda a bust tho and couldn't get to that next level. Great guy and was respected in the Locker room
Russell Wilson has been this franchise's best ever in my opinion and still has shit to show us. Go Hawks

Yup

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Gave the fukkerr 6 million to sit on the bench that year while wilson was showing us his game..

Who called Wilson a bust? Mfer prob a HOFer and was a 3rd round pick wasn’t he?

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Yeah best decision by my team for sure

[2daBank]

Seem to remember he got a really big contract but prob wasn’t a lot of guaranteed money? Don’t remember.. I do recall thinning how crazy it was giving Flynn all that money so feel like it was way more than 6 mil???

[clockwise1965]

Ryan Leaf.

[JIBBBY]

Can't forget about Todd Marinovich.. USC stud and first round pick, NFL Raiders bust. Out of the league in a blink of an eye. Somebody liked to get high rather then play football..

[kingdom]

Akili Smith or Joey Harrington

Joey Harrington, Kyle Boller, and that qb the jags drafted before bortles from mizzou are some of the worst i ever saw.

and jamarcus russell as he screwed the pay scale for every rookie after he was drafted. guys were getting rich back then as rookies. he blew it for all of them.

[CWD]

Kordell Stewart

Slash had that one sweet season with the Steelers.




Then ended his career as a backup punter for the Ravens.

Blaine Gabbert! I was shocked after watching that bum play for mizzou that anyone drafted him at all and geniuses in Jax take him in top 10! Lmao.,, he actually has impressed me workin hard enough to take so little and churn out a solid backup career. Don’t laugh, I’d kill for that job with that pay!!

But cmon now, was he a bust as much as jags worthless front office was retarded? Nobody else projected him as top 10 pick.

I stand by Ryan Leaf as undisputed biggest bust in history. All about context. Scouts and GMs seriously were split on him or the good manning!! Nobody was saying anything bad, everyone thought you basically couldn’t go wrong with either!!

Actually it was Sam Bradford cross eyed ass that broke the camels back. B2B years those 2 clowns got 60-70 mil guaranteed or whatever it was back then and that was it!! Owners had enough!!

I know this cause I knew drafting Bradford at 1 and paying that money was gonna ruin the stl rams! Didn’t realize it was gonnna be so bad we lost our team!! Bradford might be biggest bust! I know that not true if we looking at stats/career but the guy did suck and he basically ended football in St. Louis! That pretty bad!! Lol

[gummo]

Akili Smith

[Brutus84]

Stat Padford from the Detroit Lions.

[Easy-Rider 66]

Did not go through whole thread but did anyone mention Jeff George?

no one in league history stole more money from multiple teams than bradford.

[thechaoz]

Skyler Murray

[inmyownzone]

Lol.

Handjob? Wtf are you 13?!

I mean i didn’t really wanna fukk her. Rather get some head or a handjob for real. I’ve gotten lazy

[stake1]

Ryan Leaf.

Same here.

To even imagine that Polian was debating taking Leaf over Manning? Lol

A bust as a player and as a person during his Nfl days.

[Sam Odom]

Blaine Gabbert!

You mean the one who beat Kaepernick out of a job which in-turn was the real reason Kap began the kneeling ?

[packerd_00]

Ryan Leaf, you could make a film on that guy from his flop of an NFL career to what went on once hed left Football. Even the build up to the Draft was pretty fascinating.
