I find it hilarious how much grief Grbac gets around here.

10-6 and a road playoff win in 2001 with Terry Allen and Jason Brookins as RBs and our usual crap at WR.

You're crediting Grbac with those 10 wins?

I recall 18 pickles and a completion percentage barley over 50%.

And he didnt exactly light it up in that playoff win with Terry Allen being the majority of the offensive output that game.

Yes Houston, I give credit Grbac for all 10 wins............

Dude wasn't nearly as bad as people around here made him out to be. The offensive talent on that team was a joke.

I didn't like his personality too much but I certainly think he gets ripped more than deserved.

Of course he does, PP.

People have short memories sometimes. Elvis Grbac, for all his flaws, carried the offense into the playoffs without any running game. It was a freaking miracle, an offense constructed (as they always seemed with Billick) out of smoke and mirrors without significant talent on that side of the ball.

People forget. Don't let it bug you. :)

I sold my tix to my cousin and his son, they will be celebrating Matt's (his son and my nephew) 21st birthday that weekend. They are driving up from their home in OC. As huge Ravens fans, lets hope the Ravens bring a win against the Raiders.

Wherever I watch the game that weekend, I'll be wearing my black JO jersey.

That settles what jersey I'm wearing to the Saints vs Chargers game at Wembley that day then. :)

You mean that's not the same avatar after the Jenny Craig weight loss program?... I'm confused! I was particularly impressed with the loss around the neck!
