I thought Brady won the SB as a rookie after Bledsoe got hurt?

Brady had been in the league for a year prior to taking over.

But about the article, this is the first quote I've seen about the change from a player that addressed the change without denying how implausible it was. Go Javon. I would be excited too.

The article said no rookie QB has ever won the SB. I thought Brady was a rookie when he won. But if he was second year than never mind.

It was his second year, but remember...we are in the last third of the season now. Jay wasn't a 6th rounder drafted to be a backup.

Javon is a very smart man. I don't blame him for saying that. Here's a qb that will get him the ball and get him into the endzone. More TD celebrations. More ESPN highlights. More dancing for a 1st down. Javon is giddy with the potential Cutler brings.

So much for the players being angry about Jake being benched.

Unfortunately not everybody can be pleased ina situation like this. Not saying he should be taken out with the trash, but it's far more important to instill confidence and faith in the new guy as opposed to fighting a winless battle for the old. That's why I like the comment. His teammates need to make Jay feel like they want him in there.

You've got to be the ultimate Plummer homer to not even recognize this. It was pretty obvious the players on offense were disappointed, to put it mildly, by Jake's play. You could see it on the players and coaches face.

Yep the players are rioting.

The opologists are left to this?

I can turn the table just fine. If Jay struggles, they get to whine...if he does at least as good, they will again melt into the woodwork.

There is a big difference. Jake is an 11 year vet. Just equal production would be fine with most of us. Why? there is UPSIDE.

Javon wants 1st downs, TD's, big plays, ESPN highlights, best receiver in the game status. Plummer isn't giving him that. He obviously sees something in Cutler that Plummer couldn't give him. This isn't support and make Cutler feel comfy. This is Javon excited and give me the damn ball so I can make big plays every week for ESPN.

The " need " to do that? No. Its a team. They should step up no matter who is in there. You treat this situation just like you would if Jake had been hurt. You go out and play hard with whoever is taking the reigns. Thats why i dont buy into this whole " well, the players will be upset if Jake gets benched " arguement. Of course, saying the right things are important but they need to back it up and feel it also.

Walker envisions JC hitting him in stride with a 50 yarder on a fly pattern. I can't wait to see what this dude can do when we've got the means to get him the ball all over the field.

He's excited about the move? Guess he's not in the "Jake camp" at this point.

So then all that talk about the players not believing in Griese was hogwash then?

"I don't care if I play like (expletive), I want to win," Plummer said after what should be his final start in a Denver uniform. "I don't care if I throw no completions, I want to win ballgames. That's all I care about."

That's Plummer for ya. He honestly thinks no matter how poor he plays, if the team wins, he's gonna be the starter. Says it all right there for me. Yank his butt and put in the Kid.
