    Cmon, E, don't rain on our parade.  His team was 1-9 when he went under center.  They went 5-0 from there on out.
    Clearly the guy is a difference maker.  This is unusual for someone with so few starts...

    Jimmy GQ still had more wins than Jacoby who had the advantage of playing all year for an arguable better team.  49ers have been a smoldering dumpster fire.

    Yep.  With the exception of the few teams who actually have franchise QBs, a majority of the league would love to have Jimmy G as their QB of the future.

    It truly is amazing there are only around 15 people in the world that can play QB at a competent level.  That number will only get lower in the next few years (hopefully the colts didn't break Luck beyond repair)

  • Personally, after B.B. and TB get their sixth, it’s all over. Matt Patricia and Josh McDaniels are off to HC positions, BB retires and TB ends up in the front office a la Elway. Not a bad gig nor run and I can go back to raking leaves on Sunday with a cigar and listening to pats games on the radio like in the olden days. For now, no days off.

    Or it could be we are getting old and now MNF stays on past our bed time.

    Cmon, E, don't rain on our parade.  His team was 1-9 when he went under center.  They went 5-0 from there on out.
    Clearly the guy is a difference maker.  This is unusual for someone with so few starts...
    He has some potential for sure

    next season he will play:

    Wilson twice
    goff twice
    Carr
    rodgers
    rivers
    keenum/bridgewater
    the chiefs in kc
    and Denver def

    lets just wait & see

    I'd be surprised to see Bill retire.   The NFL is his passion and there are only so many Bon Jovi concerts to fill in the gap of retirement. 

    I think TB will buy an island in the Caribbean to run his TB12 method and sometime in the next 20 years his followers will drink poisoned vodka to join a UFO following a comet behind the moon.  Probably a better fate then Elway or Jeter could hope for.

    I feel the same. I don't think we can anoint him the saviour quite yet.

    Definitely offers hope though.

    Hey, I can do this all off season before I have to take any grief.  The team has sucked for a number of years -- I'm going to have fun with this while I can.

    It's more than him just beating bad teams and not so good quarterbacks (his team around him isn't that good either). I feel like his mechanics are really sound and he seems cool under pressure.

    Garrapolo has 6 td’s and 5 int’s in 5 games this season

    3 of his 5 wins this season came against the 24th & 25th ranked defenses against the pass, the other against a rams team resting most starters

    he is 7-0 in career

    the 7 qbs he has beaten are:

    palmer
    tannehill
    trubisky
    yates
    mariota
    bortles
    and mannion


    It's not like Jimmy G took over a great team.

    E:

    Wilson's contract with the devil is going to come due - he is going to leave football to join a monastery in the offseason.  Seattle can go back to being synonymous with dogshit football again.
    Goff will be good, but he is no Jimmy G.
    Carr is all hype, Jimmy G is much better
    Rodgers is awesome
    Rivers is old, but pretty awesome
    Minn is all about the D, tough matchup but Jimmy G will be much better than their QB
    Chefs in KC?  Depends which Chefs show up and who their QB is.
    Denver D didn't win too many games this year, Denver stinks

    I forgot that Jimmy Jesus is coached by Kyle Saintahan. 

    You just keep loving your Pats and quit nay-saying Jimmy Jesus.
