I think Skelton did great considering that he hasn't seen the field in weeks. He was rusty and it showed. The safeties. I don't know. I don't see that happening again. He forgot what it was like to be running for your life. He pulled through though. That TD to Fitz, Kolb never makes in his wettest dreams. Did anybody see The NFC Playbook show? They showed how Kolb spreads his feet when he throws, making himself shorter. Thus the passes always getting batted down. Skelton on the other hand stands tall and passes over the line. Thus the TD to Fitz.
If anything, it was refreshing to see a guy step up in the pocket. How many times did he turn and run backwards into a defender? I think zero. Kolb, about what, 6 or 7 times a game?
Course there's more than just the 20 mil odd reasons that Kolb will remain our starting QB. Don't forget Fitz's 50 mil odd reasons to resign. After all, if we went into the season with Skelton as QB, do we still even have Fitz?
