Some folks just clamor for change for the sake of change, I guess. Part of this is just people looking for something to talk about because when I look at the top 10 QB index I see a number of QBs (Brady, Palmer, Dalton, Carr, Brees, maybe Rivers) that were cited at some point in 2014 or 2015 as being the reason the franchise was falling behind.
I'm sure in some parallel universe we have Jimmy Garaplalalaollo, Drew Stanton, AJ McCarron, Matt McGroin, whomever the Saints wanted to get, and whomever the Chargers would get once Rivers went to the Titans starting in the NFL this year. Wacky.
So over half of the top 10 QBs in 2015 would have been fired had dissenters gotten their way. That makes it pretty unsurprising that people would fire Josh McCown and put a football playing horse, or baby, or anything in his place. I also assume these same people would tell their daughters not to marry some boring guy who makes $40k a year. She should go for that drug addicted guy who plays the guitar in that band. I mean, the guy who makes $40k, you know what you're getting with him, but that musician? He could be a big hit someday (you never know) so you should hitch your wagon to that start. Nothing to lose, right?
It's the same people who get upset our top draft picks don't play. Good teams don't turn to unproven players. Especially at critical positions unless the group around him is solid.
