    If VY is so freakin epic why was run out of the league before either of his draft peers Lienart and Cutler.?

    How is it hard to judge? We were 0-6 with Collins. Meaning we were losing every game and not winning any. With VY starting that season we make the playoffs unquestionably and we win the division.

    Unquestioningly.....
    Probably why he was released the very next year and was for the most part done in The NFL.

    So you think we would've beaten the Steelers, Colts, Jets (who made the AFC Championship that year), and Patriots with VY?

    No.

    As I said, we would've been 1-5 or 2-4 with VY... with wins against the Jags and Texans.

    So yes, I agree to an extent that we would've made the playoffs if VY was the starter in 09. But the reason it's hard to judge is because VY came in to take over for an 0-6 team with nothing to lose. There was no pressure. All fans were calling for VY to start. Hard to believe Fisher was too stubborn to bench Kerry... Ole Bud forced him to start VY. 0-6 and Fisher wasn't going to make a change. Tells me all I need to know about Fisher... and how he wasn't fired after the 59-0 slaughter is beyon me.

    Definitely wouldn't have won the division though.

    Like I said in my first (and second) post, we would've been no better than 1-5 or 2-4 in those first 6 games with VY. It was a very tough schedule.

    Well yea, with two more wins we would've been in... and maybe with one more.

    BUT... VY's 8-2 record down the stretch probably wouldn't have happened if he was the starter the whole season. He provided a spark after the 0-6 start and had nothing to lose.
