As I have written 50 billion times on this messageboard, he is an absolute anomaly.

He is the first LT in HISTORY, to be starting *1* game at 40 years old or older and you can be sure he'll be starting many more.

For the 90 billionth time, not signing Whitworth was only a bad move in hindsight; you had just drafted 2 tackles that you were all-in on, your great LT (going by NFL history) was 35 and probably only had 2-3 years left, so you offered him a 2 year deal at a modest salary and he bet on himself... and he won (because he's a winner).

At the time, wise business decision. In hindsight, a horrible decision.
