Mr. Nice! posted:Aikman to Testaverde is just a big blur to me. It went: 2001: Carter-Wright-Stoerner-Leaf 2002: Carter-Hutchinson 2003: Just Carter (somehow this team made the playoffs, it made no sense at the time and really makes no sense in hindsight) Carter gets arrested in the offseason and gets released, which opens the door for Romo to make the team and saves us from another decade of terrible QB play 2004: Testeverde-Henson 2005: Bledsoe 2006: Bledsoe-Romo 2007-present: Romo when he's not hurt.

Tim Tebow/Kyle Orton deserves an honorable, mention, even if it did end in a playoff win for the Broncos.

The Redskins issued a cease and desist against Lavar Arrington to stop advertising his camps with the term Redskin Great. Even though he was brought out and honored as a Redskin Great during a game. Goddamn I hate the ownership so loving much. Just this petty poo poo is so goddamn annoying.

The NFL needs a commissioner like Adam Silver so that Dan Snyder can be banned for life for being a giant piece of poo poo.

My best memory of that is Mike Tanier's breakdown of one of Skelton's games where the announcers said "More Skelton action coming at ya after the break." Tainer was incredulous that an announcer would be so cruel.

The correct winner is Scott Mitchell vs Stoney Case Which led to Tony Banks vs Trent Dilfer, and Dilfer winning a Super Bowl.

I remember there being some talk about whether Bledsoe or Brady would start the Super Bowl against the Rams. Though that was probably just a media thing. I guess they talked about it because Brady got hurt against the Steelers and Bledsoe had to come in and finish the game.

It will get lost in the draft thread, but if you want some nerd stuff to read while you wait in anticipation for the mid round picks, check out this article about finding those draft day diamonds from a statistical point. http://www.footballperspective.com/drafting-diamonds-in-the-rough/ quote:Asante Samuel. Jahri Evans. Robert Mathis. These three players share something in common that offers a hint to finding steals in the middle rounds of the draft. All three eventually made Pro Bowls. Each was drafted in Round 4 or later. And each played for a notable football powerhouse in college: Central Florida1, Bloomsburg, Alabama A&M. The success of these smaller college players relative to their marquee school competitors turns out to be a much more general phenomenon. In the middle rounds of the NFL draft, players from outside the traditional power conferences have been more than twice as likely to eventually make the Pro Bowl as players from the most famous programs. On defense, small school players have been even more likely to make the Pro Bowl than their major school counterparts.
