I have a problem with people who don't think Chad Pennington is a good QB. His example is a little extreme, but he may be the best example of a guy who is high on all the attributes that good QBs have, is short on some of the major tools that aren't important to good quarterbacking, and puts in great production year after year.

Pennington was having a down year, yet he was still completing 68% for 6 y/a. He's been a top ten QB in this league since 2002, likely still is, and never gets credit because people would rather see a big arm than a good QB.

All of this is lucky for us, because we now have a chance to confuse the Jets' QB this week and win a close one. If that same team played in any other city, Pennington would still be the QB, and his team would likely beat ours.
