Yeah, a career 2 to 1 TD to INT ratio is very average.

And you know enough about football to know that the Eagles run an extremely QB-safe offense with very low risk passes that tend to make very average QBs look great. See Young, Steve for reference.

So if a really good QB played in a WCO he'd have what, a 4, 5 to 1 TD to INT ratio?

lol @ England.

The announcers for the England/Sweeden game both had American accents. It made it really hard to put any faith in what they were saying. I kept thinking "what do you know? You're American. You don't know any more about soccer than I do, so STFU and bring some Irish guy into the broadcast booth".

No, see, that doesnt matter without the ring.

Ask Peyton Manning.

Correct.

Perfect example. Montana had a noodle arm, so any time he had to make a tough throw, it was pickable.

Joe Montana was awesome against Ghana.

This thread proves that the games are too far apart at the World Cup. These pussies should be able to play more than once a week when the NBA and NHL guys are playing 3-4 times a week during the playoffs.

[Rich]

The NBA and NHL playoffs don't have 32 teams with an extremely large, global viewing public and fanbase for every game.

[Yoshi]

What the hell does that have to do with playing more often? They could play 4 games a day instead of 2 at least.

Strong arm != Good QB.

Mike Vick and Kyle Boller have two of the strongest arms in the league.

Edit: McNabb's got a damn good arm too and you love talking shit about him.
