Happy as hell to be 5-0 don't get me wrong, but jesus christ, enough with the shitty retread QB's who always fail to meet expectations and get bounced off the team after the "win now" shit fails yet again.

Andy Reid wanted Alex Smith he made no bones about it. He tried to go after him when he was in Philly. So no there was no thought in drafting a QB. It was ranked one of the weakest QB classes in YEARS not where you would want to get your QB with. I know you rank Geno high but the people who have the job to rank guys said otherwise. Time will tell who was right
About this retread thing. The facts once again get in the way. Trent Green was the last good QB we had you would have ran him out. We drafted Brodie how did that turn out? This we need to draft a QB talk is just that talk. How many bust do you people have to see before you get this idea that if we just draft a Qb everything will be great. For crying out loud a Qb won a superbowl after bagging groceries. I'm sure Rams fans are upset they got a "retread" So are Cards fans after he took them to the superbowl as well
