No one in the league… NOBODY has stolen more money for less results than Kevin Kolb.. basically the Raiders D end called him a sissy and what’s funny is none of his teammates said much to back him.. that my friend is called a hint and half..

The cards will suck badly.. get barkley.. cut kolb.. and he’ll try to hang on as someones third for the veteran minimum.. eventually my friend you have to take to the field and get something done.. KK hasn’t done that.

Way to build trust and confidence in your new starting QB.

Kevin Kolb plays well as the Eagles backup…well enough to be named the starter in April of 2010. A few months later, he gets a concussion behind one of the worst offensive lines ever. After five months of prep, he loses his job due to injury after two quarters…

Fast forward to 2011. After a 6 month lockout, Kolb is traded to AZ (on July 28th, not less)…for a big investment. AZ has a terrible line and is trying to rebuild the team. Other than Larry Fitzgerald, they don’t really have much. Kolb has no offseason and is learning a new system. He gets injured and doesn’t play well, nor a full season. Skelton plays at least respectably, if not better.

Fast forward to 2012. Inexplicably, AZ has a QB controversy. The fans are starting to scream for Skelton, calling Kolb a bust. Wisenhunt waffles around, and finally names Kolb the starter. Then Kolb is up and down with his play, and suffers a minor and unrelated injury in the preseason. “Awww geez! He’s injury prone, too” the fans scream! So Wisenhunt, who apparently is a guy who changes his mind at the drive-through window after ordering, declares that he hasn’t actually made a decision. Kolb, again saddled with a horrendous offensive line, doesn’t play well after returning. Skelton look OK in relief. Then Winsenhunt decides “to get John some more reps.” Hmm. THAT really helps the starting QB, doesn’t it?

Fast Forward to the end of the pre-season: Skelton starts and looks absolutely horrible beyond that line. Kolb comes in and shows flashes of being…good. He also shows he can throw on the run much better, which will be a prerequisite beyond that line. But Kolb also throws a pick 6 and another pick. Either way, he looks better than Skelton.

And now Kolb gets the shaft once again…two quarters, about half a season without any real prep in a new system, mixed with a few unrelated injuries. Oh, and you spend millions and traded away DRC for him. You’re telling me that you’re not going to at least give him 8 games??? Wow…just wow. The stupidity is amazing.

=======================

Nonsense, they know that both Kolb and Skelton will fall flat on their faces. Get on the horn to the Dolphins and acquire Matt Moore for a 4th rounder.
