A QB that went to the super bowl is not a top 100 player? That's odd for the NFL!
This is why I think it will be hard for us to get back to the super bowl. The NFL wants every team to get a shot. If JG isn't a top 100 player how will his games be officiated as opposed to say Brady or Mahomes? For some reason the league hates Brees, JG is gonna get the Brees treatment. I can see it setting up now.
Jimmy gets no respect because he was a backup. They figure if he was a backup QB it means he is no good. Not taking into consideration that he was backing up a future Hall of famer. Jimmy G has like an 80% winning percentage as a starter and just took his team to the SB. There is no grounds for the lack of respect he gets around the league.
Jimmy reminds me of how Romo got no respect as the Cowboys QB. He never got any credit until he started winning big games.
Romo was pretty hyped when he first became starter and they were winning a good amount of games during the first few years as starter. He was the toast of the town until people starting realizing he couldn't win big games in the playoffs, or playoff games in general that matter.
Yeah, he kept coming up short in the playoffs. At least Jimmy rolled through the playoffs until the Super Bowl loss.
Romo got respect because he's a cowboy. Players on the Cowboys automatically receive respect and praise from the media, unless they totally fall on their ass.
Also, Jimmy rolled through the playoffs because of the run game.
