What's funny is that had that hail mary Smith threw been intercepted, as it should have been, we'd be staring at another loss and Singletary would be looking for a job. He was good, against the worst defense in the NFL, and got lucky a few times.
that's true, seemed very lucky, but Smith's comments made after the game seemed like they practiced that, but I agree, it seemed like a hail mary. If you want funny, if Alex was playing this game and had lost, it would have been blamed on VD being out, the game being at an odd time, Sing being an idiot, etc.
And that's the biggest difference. Troy found a way to win this game despite having not started in years, a scaled down playbook, an "international" home game, one of your best weapons sitting on the sidelines and a 1-7 record staring you in the face going into the 4th quarter.
I'm not saying he's our savior or even should be considered as a starter for next year. But this is what REAL NFL QBs do...they make plays when they need to be made and they find ways to lead their teams to wins, as opposed to invent new ways to lose.
I forgot one other Alexcuse, and that is that if he had played and lost, it would have also been blamed on our D's inability to stop Brandon Lloyd.
Alex scrotum lickers need to wake up...he's just not a very good QB/leader. A 3rd string scrub like Troy Smith can come in off the street and provide better leadership/playmaking ability than Alex. What else needs to be said???
Wow so because people supported the guy because he was our starter apparently we're gay for him? I support Troy Smith too but come on man that was a dbag thing to say and that's uncalled for. I thought you were better than that
