Because a guy who threw for 316 yards stinks

Not that talented? Yet all he does is win win win no matter what

Will always believe that the 1980 game against Russia was one of the best US hockey games of all time. For them to do what they did without NHL players (at the time), it was truly a "Miracle on Ice".

Herb Brooks did a fantastic job coaching that team. I cry every time I watch Miracle and his speech before the Russia game.

The 1980 US team had grit and intangibles. They fought hard. What people forget is that this was the same Russia team that blew USA out in MSG. To rebound as they did to win the Miracle game was stuff of legend.

That is the quarterback's job.

Sorry but reading this and in total agreement with the posters who mentioned you just described what a QB basically does.
