You guys panic way too early. There is a lot to being an NFL QB. In a matter of 10 seconds you have to get to the line, survey the defense, consider how the play you have called is going to mix with the defense they have called, spot protections, keep an eye out for signs of disguised blitzes and be ready if the coverage it looks like they're in now is different than the coverage they're acctually in (basically having a whole second plan of attack if there is a disguise) by the time the ball is snapped and I'm not an NFL QB and only have 15 years of listening to former ones but I imagine there is more. Plus, you have to excecute and keep good fundementals during all of it which in itself is a mountain of a task, although these guys seem to be throwing accurate, well placed balls for the most part (compared to the complete misses of young QB's of the past).
They've had a couple weeks of camp. The goal is to have Brohm ready to not choke it up by the start of the season and ready to win some games by the middle of it. The best you can hope for from one of these proven garbage QB's is that they won't choke it up. Look at that ball sucker that Minny got from Cleveland last year, I forget his name. He was pure shit. He was better than the other pure shit they had, but whoopity fucking do. That's nothing to shoot for and nothing we should all be crossing our fingers for. Let's put some faith in the guys who draft and the guys who say they're up to the challenge of getting these guys ready. It's very early and the Packers are bold enough to go with talent, upside, and trust in their coaching rather than panic stricken desperation that would probably lead to us lsoing a long term talented player (flynn) when we might have two damn good young guys on our roster right now. McCarthy seems to think so anyway. Bottom line, you guys are a bunch of scared pussys. No wonder you don't like TT. He doesn't run around making sure every little scary object in the room is put under the bed before you go to sleep. Put your big man pants. Damn it.
