OK, maybe the last throw was terrible, but the throw before that was right in the breadbasket for Alexander, all he had to do was catch it and the last throw wouldn't have been made.
Tell me exactly how to bite the bullet and get a star QB under center? There aren't many of them in the NFL that are available. Elvis was likee No 3 or 4 in the AFC last year. That should tell you how many better QB's there are.
To me, blaming Grbac for today is like saying Troy Aikman is a horrible QB after his team collapsed around him today. There are way more pressing concerns about this team than the QB. 8 dropped passes and a bend but try to get the turnover defense are more pressing concerns. Dumb penalties are more pressing concerns. Not dropping interceptions is a more pressing concern. Better punts and better punt coverage are more pressing concerns. MAybe Grbac isn't a Super Bowl caliber QB, but this team around him is obviously not super bowl caliber. Is Troy Aikman not Super Bowl caliber now or does his team suck? Was Chris Chandler Super Bowl caliber, or was his supporting cast excellent? Neil O'Donnell? Hostetler? Rypien? There are not too many Favres or Elways available out there. We need to concentrate on making this team better, not just the QB. Sure, if you find a Super Bowl QB out there, bring him in, but IMO there are way more pressing concerns than a guy who accounted for all our offense by throwing 2 TDs and has 8 passes dropped.
