i really dont understand why people all the sudden want flynn so badly.
im all for competition at the qb position, im all for drafting a qb to compete with moore, that would be completely fair, but matt flynn?
this is typical overreaction to a guy who played one very very very good game.
id be a fool to take anything away from him today, because he threw for almost 500 yds, 6 tds, and he was efficent, it wasnt some like 29-60 game where he compiled garbage yds. he was very accurate and good today, cant take that away from him.
but lets be real. hes played in 3 games over the past 2 years. game 1- he came in for rodgers in the 2nd qtr last year vs the lions, and i believe they scored 3 pts in a loss to the lions.
he then played vs the pats and although his stats looked good, he didnt seem to awe me so much, and they lost the game, and i believe the game was capped off with flynn being sacked, but dont remember vaguely.
today, we went over, he was lights out, cant take that away.
however, matt flynn would demand lots of money, this wouldnt be a matt moore situation where he would cost us only 2 million a year or so. I will admit i have not been a flynn guy, and although i dont think he will turn into anything special, maybe he will prove me wrong.
that being said, i am not throwing crazy money at a guy who has not proven **** yet as a consistent starter in the nfl. maybe its not his fault because hes been stuck behind rodgers, but still, im not going to just throw crazy money at him, just like a kevin kolb. qbs have great games, heck ken obrien once went toe to toe with dan the man and beat him in that epic shootout vs the jets. what did that due for his career really?
i know its a small example, but just because he had one stellar game, hes got to show a lot more consistently. today he was great, his other 2 starts not so much.
i hope we dont throw crazy money at him, and let a team like the skins do so.
i know many people on here dont like moore, and maybe he is nothing more than mediocre at best, but despite flynns game today, i really dont see him being that much an improvement from moore, and considering we have moore on the cheap next year, i rather draft a qb who would be a lot cheaper than flynn prob and let them both fight it out, rather than give a guy like flynn big money.
