Thread: How terrible is Garret Bolles?

If he has, in fact, shown major improvements then great, otherwise, just cut bait.

At some point, a player is who he is. He grades best of a steaming pile. Great. He is still a liability. 2 improved games doesn't change my opinion of him. It just so happens that in these games, we used an actual mobile QB. Why pick up a pricey option if there are better options. Quit wasting time. Fix the line.

It’s a given that players with short arms move inside, just as much a reason as poor lateral quickness.

Except we know statistically that this probably isn't the case.

What if NEITHER of you is wrong? Answer: It would tend to imply that

I look forward to seeing which sacrificial QB we nominate next to remedy the five problems in front of ALL of them.

I almost choked on my coffee when he said that, "and that's important".

If my boss said that I know damn well I'd be tidying up my resume.

It's also a shot at Bolles. There's no way that can be seen as anything but.

Per Vic Lombardi, I didn’t watch presser.

I did

It was more like what is the nicest most honest thing I can say about him

It also wasn't a complete quote, he did specifically say "he was there, and that's important". He even said it multiple times.

Yeah, he was really disguising what he wanted to say..... which would probably be closer to what stink actually says about bolles but because he is the gm he needed something better and came up with “he was available every snap” (paraphrasing) lol

He did say he played better at the end of the year. I think it's because with a mobile QB the pass rush couldn't just go balls out otherwise they would've just continued beating him like a drum.
