    Appearantly, Daunte is ahead of team expectations. Also, Saban believes Marcus Vick's "natural" position is WR.

    Daunte & Marcus Vick

    I believe Joey is one of the biggest bust thus far, but he is still an active player so he's not done yet, I just sure hope Aaron Rodgers doesn't go the same road that joeys been on, of course in Joeys defense he was basically just thrown to the wolfs, Rodgers gets to sit and watch one of the best QBs of all time, and from what ive heard from the mini camps he seems to be developing fine, im officially putting my Rodgers bashing on hiatus.

    So, do I. When Joey has a few decent games will you shut the hell up?

    You keep talking & repeating the same tired rhetoric. Were you vaccinated w/ a record needle when you were born?

    The Lions are 21-59 during the Millen era and Joey Harrington is only one man on that roster. I don't think Joey is the one person holding the Lions back.

    Thank you to someone that has actually watched the Princess play a full game or two.

    She does have about two very good games in every 16 starts, so a good game won't shut me up on this subject. It was a horrible signing and Saban WAY overpayed for the biggest mistake in Matt Millen's career as a GM. LMAO!

    I watched a couple Lions games (since a friend of mine loves the Lions ekkk) and Joey was a safe player. He held onto the ball to long and he wouldn't find the open WR. He'd just dump the pass off to a RB 25% of the time. I'd say he was a clear BUST in Detroit. He has a shot to start over in Miami and he could probably make the most of it under Saban and co. I still think he's nothing more than a career backup and Culpepper is the guy (obviously) when he get's healthy, which I'm reading could be around week 3 or 4.

    Gus, sadly, has been the best QB in the post Marino era....so far.

    Had the O line not been so bad and the deck stacked against him, Brian Griese IMO could have been decent.

    true, I still respect Fiedler alot more than either of them though, Greise is crap under any form of pressure.

    He is a FA & the Pats are considering him to be Brady's backup.

    Feidler won games... may not have been pretty.. but he won.. Harrington is mediocre i think he has the skills to be a good not great QB in the league.. and anyone is just mediocre when u put on a lions uniform

    Harrington will have a better cast around him in Miami namely a proven receiving core and a solid running back, however I don't expect him to do anything special if anything good at all.

    I sure hope Fiedler gets another team he's one of my fav QBs (i don't know why [​IMG] ) The pats would probably be a good fit for him.

    You're joking right? Anyone who thinks Harrington is or ever will be as good as Ferotte or Fiedler is a complete fool. Harrington couldn't hold either of their jocks as an NFL QB. It's not even close.

    Come on I know he was horrible in detroit, but you cannot honestly say he is that much worse than Ferotte or Feidler, I mean come on Ferotte is the moron who scored a TD and then broke his neck by pounding his head into a wall or something lol. Fiedler although one of my fav QBs was one of THE most eratic passers ive ever seen, Joey was very erratic as well but to say he coulden't hold either of there jock straps is a little over kill isnt it? Now if you were comparing him to someone like Marino or Favre then that anaology would be put to good use.
