Football Question, Jeff Garcia
Is it just me, or does everyone think he is overrated. I read an article where he is designated as the top free agent and the most tallented quarterback available (free agency or draft). I just don't see it!

...I'm with you...he's also getting a little long in the tooth for pro-ball...considering McNab's record with injuries, if Garcia is so good; why didn't the Eagles keep him...[;)]

He probably is past it, though with the Eagles good offensive line he was effective. He's at the point where he's a nice backup for a team with that need, he's smart, experienced, still mobile, and keeps mistakes to a minimum. He'll get a job. 0 -
Garcia is viewed as soft and injury prone. this makes him very unmarketable to pro teams. he is also a journeyman and many teamates have said they dont like him. many players have accused him of being gay. personally, i think he is an above average qb who is a good guy. he makes something like 5 mil a year which is alot for a backup and he isnt quite good enough as a starter. 0 -
Newtgingrich,
There's some really weak QBs around the league, though he isn't a star I'd rather have him as a starter than some of these bums.0 -
"Most talented available" doesn't mean much when there is not much available on the free agent market. It's probably a tossup between he and Trent Green, and Green's 37 - not a good choice for the long term.[:)]
The only other real option is David Carr, and he didn't exactly have a great five year run in his last job.[:)]0 -

BULLSNOT! He is viewed as one tough hombre! In 2003 he did sit out a few games with a back injury, but that is it. He made the Pro Bowl for 3 straight years when playing for the 49er's. I've always admired him. Played his heart out without having the talent of a lot of other qb's.

ONE player has accused him of being gay...Terrell Owens. And we know what a stand up guy Terrell is! [xx(] As a matter of fact, he is engaged to this lady (2004 Playmate of the Year)...
I wish I were that gay!
And dheffley...he's not a free agent any more. Signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers early in March.0 -
If Atlanta would trade that clown Vick for him it would be a great improvement. 0 -
Garcia is the perfect old man backup. Didn't do bad as a starter in Philly.
But then again, Philly SUCKS!!!!0 -
Garcia has been a good QB in the right systems. If he is put in the right offense for him, he will do good. 0 -
Being a Philly fan and season ticket holder I hate to see him go. I'd rather get rid of McNabb honestly. Garcia's playing looked pretty darn good to me last season. 0 -
Getting rid of any player means someone has to admit they were wrong which everyone knows how hard that is.David Carr is a perfect example. They passed on Vince Young and a couple others this draft because "someone" did'nt want to admit they were wrong with Carr.
Micheal Vick and Adam Jones being two others that come to mind0 -

I don't think there's much real interest in Mike "Coach Killer" Vick around the league. The guy may make a good running back, but if you have to have a one dimensional QB that dimension better be passing.0 -

That's certainly been demonstrated throughout football history, hasn't it? Of course, "one-man team" Mike admittedly has managed to throw one or two decent passes, only to make the mistake of having them hit the receiver's hands.0
