    Saw a special on him. Didn’t know him but seemed like a family guy that was a good qb, not great, but made his $$$ and said fuck it...

    Bought what he wanted, settled into what he wanted, and all the power to his ass for “making it” ...I guess...

    Seemed like good dude.

    according to @RoadDawg55 he is fucking failure go figure

    He’s not watched 30 for 30(Million).

    He’s a failure as a NFL QB. Nobody ever said he wasn’t a good guy or that he didn’t make a lot of money.
    I was shocked when he was picked #8 overall. My theory was that the Titans thought he'd be highly marketable in the South

    Browning was better than Locker. And much tougher.

    In a place built on stupid takes, this is the keystone.
    Don’t get me wrong, I think brownsocks is horrible and shits himself in big games. Very much looking forward to Eason.

    But Locker, while he had the heart of a lion, did not have the tools or durability. Jesus can only do so much for you.

    And just to throw gasoline on the fire, I’d take Cody Pickett over either of them.

    I don’t think it was that. Teams reach for QB’s every year. Blaine Gabbert and Christian Ponder were picked right after him.

    bunch of fanboy shit up in heeuh!

    don't recall anyone saying he was an asshole.

    i think his point is that if he'd been a good NFL QB he would have kept playing, which I believe to be true. of course he had the option of holding a clipboard for 10 years and said 'pass'.
