Quitterson tidbit - The Orange Mane

Bob's your Information Minister · 08-12-2005, 06:23 AM

I figured you guys would like this, even if I am giving a backhanded compliment to TrINT.

Why Trent Green is the most respected player on the roster:

This offseason the players would get together in little groups, eat and say exactly what they thought of one another. Eddie Kennison told a story about how last season during a game he loafed on a play when he was the third or fourth read on a pass play. Green went through his progression of reads, and with his primary receivers covered, he threw the ball where Kennison was supposed to be.

The pass was intercepted. Kennison thanked Green for taking the blame for the interception and promised he’d never let his QB down again by taking a play off.

I could probably tell a Trent Green story every day. These guys love Trent Green, and everyone has a story to justify the affection and respect.

Just like a quitter to not play every down. I am sure glad KC has HIM

BTW, what were the excuses for the other 16 INT's rofl

Tells me that team doesn't respect him enough not to give thier best on every play. Do you think that anyone would do that to Elway, Marino. Aikman, etc . Also tell me that Quitterson does pay attention to small details that help you win champisonships.

Bob -

I'm not sure what responses you expected.

Trent Green looks like a good leader. Things like this happen in a lot of club houses. Green has done real well when looking at what he has to work with.

I still give all the credit in the world to that OL. I think most of that locker room probably does to.

He was hopping that we would praise Trint.

Awwwww... I bet Dickie V needed a tissue after that touching locker room confession.

How old are these guys? 12?

Probably Plummers fault. Watching too much film of the Donks probably caused all that exposure to INT's to rub off a bit.

Why would they be watching so much Denver game film? Maybe that's why there was no game plan in those ones which ended up in the L column.
