One year/season is not enough to know whether a
guy is good for a job. If you really want a
guy to commit to a team, you have to make a commitment to him, rather than threats about how he
will lose his job if he doesn'
t do exactly what you want him to, when you want him to do it (trying to light a fire under his ass). Nobody performs better that way, and it's a waste of
money/resources you could've just saved for a different quarterback, if a different quarterback was what you knew you wanted deep down all along. I guess when you have excessive amounts of
money at your disposal, you feel like fucking around with it more than someone on a tighter budget.
Either somebody wanted the
guy to be a quarterback before he started, or they didn't. There's no sense in fucking around with a guy's head about it when you have enough
money that you
don't have to fuck around with anybody's head, you could pick anybody you wanted for the job.
