But the thing we seem to be missing is that he is Smart enought to get it to the right guy, the open guy, and he is Proven that he can grasp and get a hold of an offense and make the right decision.

Who knows how good he Could be if he gets a hold of the Shanahan's offense, and gets a great playmaking WR...
And others are missing another key fact about him.. He has 9 TD and 7 turnovers (5 INT, 2 fumbles lost). If you take away his 'magical' performance he has 3 TD and 4 turnovers (3 INT, 1 FL) so there is significant question as to how special of a QB he is, getting to the right guy and making the right decision. Not to say that he isn't but there have been tons of QB who have played one great game and it be an aberration. He really hasn't proven a thing.

I'll second this. And I'll also second that post above about backup qb's getting massive paydays after teams spending exorbitant amounts just to get them. Just say no to Flynn.

Agreed, see Kevin Kolb and all he accomplished this year after all the hoopla about him last year.

Re: What is Matt Flynn Worth to the Redskins

For every Kevin Kolb, there is a Jake Delhomme.(He did have some good years before he started throwing picks 5 times a game)

For every Kurt Warner there is a Don Strock.

Mark Rypien NFL Football Statistics - Pro-Football-Reference.com

11 Scott Mitchell, Bill Nelsen, Len Dawson*, Chad Pennington, Jake Delhomme, David Garrard, Elvis Grbac, Marc Bulger, Gary Danielson, Jeff Hostetler

Career Scott Mitchell, Bill Nelsen, Chad Pennington, Jake Delhomme, David Garrard, Doug Flutie, Elvis Grbac, Gary Danielson, Marc Bulger, Stan Humphries

The Scott Mitchell one works pretty well, although it's hardly current.

I'd compare him to a poor man's Phillip Rivers. Kind of clumsy, doesn't look real pretty out there but throws are great deep ball and gets the job done. A lot of people forget that Rip had some pretty solid years here before the magical 91 season. In 89 The Posse all went over a 1,000 yards and he was the main guy throwing it.

Re: What is Matt Flynn Worth to the Redskins

And to have the posse put up those kind of numbers over 20 years ago is unreal compared to the different defensive play allowed today.

Eh, we've seen that every year. Only difference is it's two names longer this year.

I've seen all his highlights and the delhomme comparison seems about right
