You keep claiming Kyler's a great player; the actual great players the Cards have had have shined despite the wretchedness of the franchise. Ergo, he ain't as great as you think he is :)
Ha! Sorry, but you don't keep aging talent that doesn't perform on gigantic contracts. If you can net a 5th or 6th rounder, make the trade, and get younger.
We had plenty of control. I and others said there's no need to rush, let's see another year. If ownership wouldn't have been, you know, idiotic, we would have seen that year and never, ever offered him so big a deal.
Yeah, since he sticks with daddy and has shown no propensity to do the hard work (sans physically), it's more likely he isn't killing himself studying.
Do you have evidence that he kills himself watching tape or studying defenses? That he does more than what the offense/coaches require? No? I mean, wouldn't he want to be putting that out there if he was?
He didn't express an unprovable opinion. Kyler keeps coach daddy instead of working with a QB guru. Kyler admittedly doesn't kill himself watching film and breaking down defenses. From Kyler's own admissions, those are pretty damning facts that say he doesn't want to be a champion.
Now you go...
Kyler isn't...
--talLeRz
--Stepping up in the pocket
--Being comfortable in the pocket
--Progressing through his reads
--Doing everything he can to succeed
--Throwing the ball away'
--Stopping tendencies to slide short of the first
--Stopping tendencies to run OOB behind the LOS
...
The list...
That should be the trick questions to winnow out the awful candidates.
"Would you like us to keep Kyler?" Sure! "Get lost!"
"Would you like us to keep Kyler?" God no! "You're hired!'
