I'd like to get some opinions from fellow fin fans here....Is it time to put in Harrington or should this be Culpepper's show for a little (or a long) while more?
I realize that I might get bashed for saying this but I was actually in favor of signing Harrington ever since Detroit released him. Even after Pepper was signed I made a post stating that I wish we would have signed Joey instead (then I did get my wish a few weeks later).
Now I'm not saying that Joey is the answer or anything like that but I honestly feel that C-Pep is overrated. He is a physical speciman, this cannot be denied but he also is:
a. prone to fumbling
b. prone to throwing Int's (especially at crucial times), AND
c. prone to holding onto the ball way too long
These are 3 crucial strikes against a QB and I'm not so sure that these ills can be cured...however, I'll gladly be the first to say I was dead wrong if and when Pepper rights our ship and takes us to some wins.
