I'm not seeing the things I need to see out of this quarterback.

But then guess what?

I started seeing the things I needed to see out of this quarterback over the last five or six games of the season.

And what I am trying to really take in, Marshall, is what you said about how maybe I'm not giving enough credit to what he does.

in the fourth quarter.

Because you made a really good point about how there are quarterbacks who could play great for three quarters, and then they choke it away and can't do anything in the fourth quarter.

So maybe I need to give more points than I already am to what he does in the fourth quarter.

Yeah, I mean, go back and just listen to our visits with Tim Jenkins, which were always stellar.

There was a time where he was kind of biting his lip and his tongue trying to say, remember when he was talking about repeating plays, like how he had never seen a coach repeat plays for a quarterback?

And there was some real legitimate concern, not just from me, but the people who really delve into the tape.

I love some of these text messages.

This is a great one here from the 917.

Yeah.

He's not elite, but he makes elite plays.

That's true.

And that's where it gets cloudy and difficult for the people who are like, dude, he's great.

What are you talking about, Grody?

You're not calling him elite.

How dare you?

Because he does make elite plays.
