Boy is this guy an idiot. He spent 20 minutes arguing that Mark Sanchez is a really good QB. You know what his "best" argument was? If you took away the 13 passes to Roddy White this weekend, Matt Ryan would have virtually the same numbers this week as Sanchez. So if you think Sanchez stinks, then you must think Ryan does too.
Really?!? I guess I shouldn't expect much from ESPN, but even the morons who follow ESPN religiously and think Cowherd is actually great radio can't really fall for such twisted logic.
Sorry to start a thread on this, but I had to vent since I was trapped in a car without control of what I listened to for a half an hour and I feel since I lost a half hour of my life I had to complain somewhere.
The "take away" approach is a terrible basis for an argument.
Notice how no one ever uses the opposite argument. Like, if you add in all the yardage that was taken away by penalties and the yardage gained by other backs, Chris Johnson would have had 2800 yards last season. Why? Because the "add in" argument is just as stupid as the "take away" argument.
