He created his own adversity with the pick. I realize the OLine is garbage, but that throw was inexcusable. That said, props for pulling it off. This team has a lot of room to get better, and I only hope they keep doing that.

THIS.

Oh my God! Kolb sucked so bad against Miami I can't believe we still won. I never want to see Kolb play another game. If Skelton doesn't start next week Whiz should be fired!

not me. I may bitch during a 3 hour window on Sundays, but every minute outside of that I am ecstatic. How can I not be? This team is so dedicated that they find ways to win games that they absolutely deserve to lose

This.

Kolb's job was a bit tougher today since we only had about 28 yards rushing.

Not saying it wouldnt be the same if Skelton were starting, but defenses are not being "honest" against us. Unless we are in shotgun then we are seeing a lot of guys in the box just daring us to pass from under center. If we can burn the D more regularly with passes from under center then it will help our running game a lot.

I'm sure that was part of it, but we were also playing without Beanie or hyphen, playing behind all day, and generally having our O line manhandled. All of that made it harder to run, and more challening for the QB.

Kolb must be judged by the whole game and the whole game says winner. He threw that pick but at the same time he made clutch passes and scrambles out of sacks and delivered. Yes, we must seriously start thinking he might be our franchise QB after all...give him a decent line and I think we know the answer of what the kid is capable of.

True. The problem is the Tackles are so bad in pass pro we can't throw the ball downfield. and the Snyder and Sendlein today were getting destroyed inside on run plays it appeared.

There was very little room to run and it often looked like they did that with only 7 in the box.

I thought Floyd had good moments other than the big drop in the first half and Housler had a couple of huge catches. It's a dilemma for Whiz if he tries to use those weapons, the Tackles have to hold up

:mulli:

And a lot of his adversity was cause by Masseys awesome game :D

Come on, Kolb is a BIG REASON the Cards are 4-0


If someone ran a redlight and T-Boned you, would you give him an award after he paid to have your car fixed?


Yes, the positives are great, but your completely ignoring the massive negatives. That should be worrisome when deciding whether or not Kolb is our guy long term. Mental mistakes are WAY harder to fix than mechanical.

The 2 picks had nothing to do with Massie. They were garbage decisions.

By your rational, Kurt Warner should have been benched about 25 times and Jake Plummer should have never seen the field in AZ.

When did I say anything about benching Kolb?


Im just not cheering his performance.


He did lead us to victory, after he nearly put us in an insurmountable hole. I dont praise making up for F'ing up.

Hes paid alot of friggin money to not make those kind of mistakes.

That 4th down TD was a dart folks.... A flat out laser to the post.

His accuracy was great today. Still have to question some decisions, but those throws were damn priceless.

Kolb has this team at 4-0 despite zero running threat and the worst pass protecting OL in football. IMO I've seen enough. You get an Oline in front of him and he is a franchise QB.

Dude was sacked 9 freaking times today.

And I think he only has 2 picks in 4 games, with this defense we can be in a lot of games we "shouldn't" be.

I'm thinking we should put all 11 players on defense on waivers according to your logic. Seriously, Kolb doesn't deserve the spears you're chunking at him.

Won't you guys ever learn? You almost cost us the game with all those posts talking about how great Batiste and Massie were doing.

Up 14-13 2nd down on opponents 1 yard line with 7 minutes left in the game and we have to come from behind to win? Our offense sucks eggs. Kolb was better than Skelton because he didn't throw interceptions and he's throwing picks so he's no longer better. If the D doesn't get the ball back twice at the end of the game we're 3-1.

:stick:

I don't ever want to hear him slammed again after the adversity he overcame today & has since preseason!!!

By your logic, we shouldve made Max Hall Mayor because of his epic performance vs the Saints.


My issue with this thread is how fickle you (some fans) are. "Never Again" because of 1 game?

I could go back to the game thread right now and pick out 100 comments of "F KOLB!" "SCrew YOU!" "SKELTON!" etc.

and because we barely won, you think Kolb deserves infinite mulligans because of what he did today. If he goes out and throws 1 TD, 14 picks in his next 3 games, we arent allowed to slam him, by your logic.
