That's because Jews suck at sports, moron

Racist

no,guys have had that name in sports but they never get to be the star.
it has nothing to do with your religious assumption.
greeks,Italians,Germans,Polish a lot of whom were Jewish filled most of the spots in the 30s through the 60s.

but I'm black,remember?

lol I just looked at my banner below

What about 7 time all star and 3 time mvp Alexander Ovechkin? Wait, hockey's not really a sport, never mind......

Hockey is not predominantly an American sport obviously but I'll play your game. The Greatest ever had a simple name,..Wayne Gretzky..and he looked like a blond Angel with a mullet. And when he left Edmonton, they made sure he played in LA and NY. How lucky to have the greatest ever play in the 2 biggest American markets.

1. Not having a work ethic.
2. Not having a true passion for the game let alone for the QB position.
3. These result in not being a "gamer".

These are 2 fatal flaws that expose even the best athletic passing QBs in due time.

If you have the work ethic and passion for the game/QB position they can make up for a lot. Both go hand in hand IMHO. Yes, some talent is needed but not as much as you would think IF you are willing to work and have a passion for the game. Peyton and Tom are perfect examples. Below average in almost all athletic measurables(not talking game stats here) coming out of college. But because of their work ethic and passion for the game they improved their athletic measurables and even more important actually becoming true students of the game/QB position to the point of having the mind and eyes of a D coordinator. Knowing exactly what the D coordinator is trying to do to you and being able change the play or bluff back depending.

When you have work ethic and passion you will always be a "gamer" which is so huge IMHO. Never believing your are beat and always trying to make a play even if you are down 14 pts with 3 minutes to go. You never believe for a second that you are beat until the clock and score say so. All the great QBs have this ability.

You're discounting talent way too much here.

This reads like a job description for Matt Cassel. I mean, if Cassel were actually worth a shit.

Well re-reading it I can see how that would be mis-interpreted. Yes you need talent but my point being Brady for example was unimpressive in college and athletically average at best. And yes the physical talent must be there whether already evident or the potential to be developed. And there is the crux some scouts eyes are better than others.:D

Or Tebow. Or EJ Manuel. Or Ryan Fitzpatrick. Or any other shitty "gamer" QB.

If you gave me the choice between putting my franchise in the hands of Johnny try-hard or someone like Brodie Croyle whose intentions were good, but he couldn't stay healthy, I'd take the risk on Brodie Croyle each and every time particularly because he had the ability to be an accurate thrower.

His career was a mess, but Cassel's was equally a shithole. The only reason why we still talk about him is because he could actually stay healthy.

Always liked football because attitude and work ethic could make up for lesser skill UNTIL you get to the NFL level. To parrot most people on this thread...
1. accuracy, you either have NFL accuracy or you don't.
2. reading the defense/intelligence. Walking up to the line like Peyton did and being able to tell you what the defense was and where to attack before he had the ball snapped 99% of the time is a extremely rare gift that was developed thru years of film study. As much as I disliked him I respected his ability to do this.
3. being a good teammate/person. Players don't excel in the NFL without help from teammates whether it's a receiver that lays out to get the tuff throw or the guard who chips the guy next to him and so on. You don't get the last 5% of someone giving "110%" if you're an azzhole and that is the difference between good and elite or elite and great.

Don't you just hate shitty QB's who's only "redeeming" factor is the ability to stay upright, and continue being shitty?

God, what a curse.

And here it comes.

Nope. Go in peace my child. I've got 5 years of Big Rapin', 4th Down Haley, and an institution where "trust the process" actually yields fruit.

Being Johnny Manziel
