    Another example of a team that when they identify that something isn't the answer not being afraid of trying something else to determine whether that is the answer or they need to continue looking elsewhere.

    Locker has started 27 games in 4 years plus was a college QB for 3 full seasons.

    Miles has started only 7. Not a comparable situation.
    At this point in Keith Price's career, he was shredding opposing defenses.

    Hell, even Jack fucking Lockner looked better than Miles at that point in his career.

    The brutal truth is that Jake was never destined for a good NFL career as a QB. As he himself said in August 2010, if he could do it over again he would have been a safety.

    Link?

    That doesn't sound like anything he's ever said. Not saying you're lying, just love to see the quote.

    Even then Fetters was checking out his hips

    No Softy in the background? You're better than that.
    Had a hard enough time fitting fatters fat face on Charles Lawton's fat Gracchus body and fitting that entire monstrosity into the pic.

    I did consider a "Bright Side of Life" theme...

    I know it isn't a popular opinion, but I liked Jake as well.

    I'll never forget, when asked, how many opposing Pac-12 coaches said he was the one player they most feared facing on the field. (okay, I forget exactly how many said it... but it was a couple of them, including D. Erickson).

    Sure he had some bad games, maybe many of them... but when things were clicking... he seemed unstoppable.

    If he had the proper coaching and talent around him, who knows what could have happened. He still wouldn't have done much better in the pros though. Personally the soft faggot Seattle media and the Doog's worship of him got really old by 2010, especially when UW was 3-6. I told you so line: When the experts began touting him as a potential first pick, I knew they were either dumb, hadn't done homework, or abundance.

    Jake should have left a year earlier and cashed in his lottery ticket. He is a journeyman who will last a few years as a backup. Not a bad gig.
