heretic Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 i keep reading about this "you got what you were asking for" nonsensewe weren't asking for a tall pocket passer with 4 passing tds, 3 interceptions for tds and a 80.3 qb ratingharrington has done a decent job "as a backup".we weren't asking for a "backup" when we were criticizing vick as a passerwe were asking for a good passerharrington career numbers are:55.8% com/att76 passing tds81 intsqb rating 69.1is this what you call " a good tall pocket passer"?it's like signing lamont jordan and watching him fail just to prove we don't need a good power rb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Bingo Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 if they win 2 of those games they should have there would be nodebate about the "state of the franchise".true falcon fans, like myself,have gotten so used to complaining about underachieving players,coaches,gm,etc.it is 2nd nature.if we are 3-3 right now the biggest debate this week isthe matchup with the rookie lt and smith.as it is we desperately want ourbirds to do well, so let the scrutiny begin , all opinions welcome.harrington won't/can't save us but bp will once his tenure extends beyond 6gamesand 1 round of fa & draft.go falcons!!!

the baptist Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 well i cant speak for anyone elsebut when i say that, i dont mean you were asking for harringtonmost of the "we want a better passer" fans if not you yourself, wanted vick to depart regardless of who came in and like i said it may not have been youbut in general, some who had answers were talking about schaub, the others just wanted vick gonerather it was schaub harrington or who ever it was, thinking about the consequences didnt come until nowso when i say it, i mean you got what you ask for, vick is gone, and we are losingwe should have dealt with what vick could do to help us win instead of focusing on what he couldnt do, even though it really doesnt matter now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
