there has been much debate here over QB's and their lack of development (See endless Hutch/QC threads), but how does one really know someone is actually going to be "It" when time comes to man the center.
Let's talk about the guy who is consider a good QB - Favre. Time was I remember a Dallas team playing against a younger Favre and watching this guy piss off Holmgren so much that he was ready to chew this guy's butt and shove it up the hole it was attached to. In general terms you would have to characterize Favre's early years as careless with the ball and poor decision making. At least that's what I saw in the two back to back first round playoff losses to Dallas in 95 and 96(??).
How did we know this guy was going to be a Vicodin addicted star? As much as I knew he was a nineties version of Gary Hogeboom. Big arm and stupid interceptions.
Now with "Ouch" who's to say that he can't overcome his problems. Collins did and I remember when he gave up football. The boards were all over him as a "quitter" and a "drunk".
Examples of Vinny, Rich Gannon, Warner and (geez I could never remember the guy who won with Tampa) tells me that a career can be made with the right place and the right situation. Short of losing your physical tools most of the so called "cast offs" could probably have productive careers.
This league could end up seeing Tim Couch win the 2009 SuperBowl MVP even though he has been branded in 2004 with decision making problems.
Could it be any worse than seeing Jake Delhomme throw up free balls that end up as touchdowns in 2004?
