nah he tore it up at tennesse with his 8 career touchdowns. its not like he only guy on a roster because of his dad or anything
I'm not saying he's good. But how can you say the guy is terrible if no chance to play. The guys who did play suck.
Wow, the TGG sweetheart is finally gone. It's amazing what a last name can do for people. This guy showed no semblance of being able to play in the NFL yet somehow got paid to be on an NFL roster for what, three years?
he was seen in practice for years...if he was any good he'd of gotten a start or least been considered,..you don't start guys that don't impress you like Matt Simms just to find out
He played well in exhibition games. And was good enough in practice to make the team. Again the only way to evaluate a Qb is by his play on gameday. Some guys are good practice players but not good when it counts. I'm not saying Simms is good. He's unproven. Plus he couldn't be worse than the two guys who did start at Qb since 2009.
So in retrospect knowing what you do now you'd take Geno or Sanchez over Simms. You would accept losing over uncertainty. I'll take the X factor in Simms over league low Qbrs with Geno and Mark. But not just Simms. It goes for anyone.
Yeah dude you're right. I would've took Simms in retrospect because we would've been guaranteed Bortles, Winston, or Mariota if Simms had started.
I don't. It's not that I wish him ill, either. I just want our coaches to be great talent evaluators, and not make mistakes like cutting a player because they don't think he can play, then that player going elsewhere and succeeding. I'm a fan of the uniforms (as another poster recently put it), not the individuals. That doesn't mean that I can't also be a fan of certain players, but first and foremost, my allegiance is to the team.
Nothing should surprise me anymore when it comes to this place, but I cannot believe people are still going to bat for Matt Simms. He was on our practice squad for a year. No team touched him. There's a reason.
Oh dang you're kidding me I had no idea!!! Are you telling me that Winston or Mariota was on the board at pick 6? Because they weren't.
