... and that's why Kolb should stay the starter

Awful performance. Sure, he did make a critical 4th down and LSH dropped that pass, but that ugly INT was a stab in the heart. The field goal was the knife twisting and pulling out

By the way, how is Kolb doing? Any word on his injury?

A pinata is still a pinata on this team. A QB is still a QB on this team. Same thing.

So poopy that he runs for 70 yards, takes 6 sacks, and the play that does him in is the broken play caused by Powell.

Yeah I don't get what Powell was thinking and then LSH kills us in the OT dropping a screen.

Powell did ok but the RB play really hurt us at key times today.

Kolb made the exact same mistake Skelton did so i can't hate on John. The bottom line is our OL is horrible, Batiste doesn't belong starting for any NFL team, Massie is a year early, the interior OL sucks so whichever QB we start is going to be in the same boat.

He is an average at best QB behind a below average OL. Why is this so difficult to understand?

It was a draw play but Powell didn't know the play so when Kolb went to hand the ball off, he wasn't there. Kolb then tucked and ran and got crunched.

Because Skelton is below the below average QB.. Just going with the best QB.. Which is Kolb..

Why is that so hard to understand? Or are you an advocate of inbred QB's?

So why don't we give our "average" QB a better than "below average" line to work with? Perhaps he'd be better than "average."

If you honestly believe any QB would play better than average behind this line, I have some ocean-front property in Goodyear to sell you.

I think Kolb is a crappy QB. My assessment of Kolb has nothing to do with John Skelton who I also think is crappy.

If Kolb is option A and Skleton is option B, I want us to draft option C next year.

I watch a lot of football and I can say there are very few good offensive lines in the NFL. Top QBs succeed no matter what. Example Andrew Luck and RGIII.

My assessment of him is... He's right more often than he's wrong. And he's right about our QB's. I wish some of you guys would stop thinking that everyone one of us that bashes Kolb does so because we like Skelton. Kolb is below average and in an ideal situation could be serviceable. We don't have an ideal situation and it's not looking like it will change anytime soon. We don't have a QB controversy. We don't have a QB.

This OL is beyond putrid, every single one of them, and the head of the problem is...

You must be registered for see images attach



I have seen patched up OL's do a lot better... heck, Bill's OL is patched up. How much pressure we were able to put on Fitzpatrick? Rams OL was patched up and we got ONE sack and little pressure on Bradford. Most of his incompletions were his own poor throws and drops.
