A guy who turned tyreeks head around in the super bowl and who threw upside down passes in a meaningless super bowl drive after getting pummeled into the ground.

But yeah, this stuff is wild. If anything it seems to confirm rumors that dude wasn’t even engaged in his own playoff game.

It does.

In these cases, the hope is the QB's talent can overcome their lack of leadership. Because both Baltimore and Arizona have playoff caliber teams. And the alternative to paying Murray, a good but not elite QB, is most likely ending up the 2021 Colts. A great roster wasted by 20th ranked QB play. That is the primeval fear. Yeah, having to pay the 11th ranked QB a mammoth sum isn't ideal but the likely outcome of switching QBs is irrelevance. And that gets a GM fired more quickly than a string of 9-8/10-7 seasons.

Their GM has been on the job since 2013. He drafted Rosen and Murray. I am sure the Rosen miss has scarred him.
