Raiders release Matt Flynn.

Raiders released QB Matt Flynn.
It's a stunning admission of defeat from out-of-his-depth GM Reggie McKenzie, but hardly surprising considering coach Dennis Allen's barely-concealed disdain for his would-be starting quarterback. Flynn had tumbled behind Matt McGloin — a painful to watch quarterback in college — on the depth chart, and was embarrassingly inept in his Week 4 spot start against the Redskins. The fact that he's bringing home a guaranteed $6.5 million this season is one of the most embarrassing GM gaffes in recent memory. Between his money wasted in Flynn and fourth-round misfire on Tyler Wilson, McKenzie has proven he has no idea what he's doing with quarterbacks. Barely a No. 2 level talent, it's possible Flynn will latch back on with the Packers, who lack a viable backup behind Aaron Rodgers.

That would be hilarious. Hi guys, I'm back! Got paid a bunch of money just to come right back here...

Can't laugh too hard with Chase signed to a 3 year deal.

Dude had one great game and is a multi millionaire

Flynn was an awful idea for the Raiders. But unlike our former GM, at least McKenzie can admit a mistake and move on.

DaneMcCloud 10-07-2013 12:36 PM

And yet people on Chiefsplanet advocated acquiring him in favor of Alex Smith

Cassel strung together a couple good games with a hall of fame WR and it landed him 60 million

If I were wanting to get QB evaluations from a group of people I wouldn't be looking around here.
