we didnt even try to sign him last time. Jeff Garcia tho, is a winner. I don't know if the cap would allow it. but lets face it, i know i will get criticized, but Garcia is better than Delhomme. idk about his attitude, but the guy, when surrounded by talent (which may or may not be able, you judge), wins football games. Not to mention he has taken 3 different teams to the playoffs, and has been in multiple Pro Browls.

As long as we also go to a completely different offensive system (in mid-season).

We could have had Garcia the last time he was available and we needed a QB. We didn't even reach out to him, opting to go after A J Feeley instead.

With no opening on the roster, and A J Feeley already two weeks into his "crash course" what on earth makes you think we'd go after Garcia now? :nonod:

how many times does this have to be said? you can't just magically plug a quarterback with a certain skillset into an offense that is contrary to his abilities. Garcia is a WCO QB for a reason. To insist that he'd be just fine in our system is more than just asinine, its ...its... uh... REALLY asinine. yeah.

delhomme is a better option than garcia, at this point.

Our offense sucks !!

If we are down by 10 at the half then we are done

Garcia's not all that consistent on the longballs. Not a good flaw to have in an offense that prefers chucking it downfield over short passes. His arm strength has generally only been so-so even when he was younger, and now he's old. the mobility isn't what it once was either.

He's got the ideal skill set for the WCO. But whenever he's played outside of it he's wound up benched, and in favor of guys nobody would mistake for superstars.

    • Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.
    • They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it. 
    • Except it wouldn't be Rodgers leading them on a postseason run, it would be the defense and he's there to not screw up their great games. Which is why..... This times a million. I didn't watch a ton of the Jets last year, but from what I did see, Rodgers himself didn't look like a bum, the team just struggled and was more than likely due to poor coaching on the whole.  The Steelers don't need MVP level Rodgers to win games, they just need him to be good enough to make some plays when it matters because the defense is keeping them in games every week regardless. In their 7 losses last season, the Steelers scored 10, 13, 17, 17, 17, 19, and 24... while giving up 19, 20, 24, 27, 27, 29, and 34 in those games.  With only marginally better offense last year, they probably end up winning a few more games too. They only scored over 27 points in 3 games last season. I think this is a great move by the Steelers and if Rodgers can stay healthy all year, will get them back into the playoffs and could make some noise if their defense is up to the normal level of a Steelers defense.
