LMAO Full Retard. $72 million for a dude who was average in SEVEN freaking games.

Fitzpatrick is better than him. What a dumb move.

So over 16 games, 20TD/12INT

$18 mil/yr puts him as the 15th highest paid qb, sandwiched between Tony Romo and Matthew Stafford. And still making less than Kaepernick, Tannehill, Cousins.

Even with paying a FA premium, it's still right on market value. I don't get the disbelief about the number.

Could he suck? Sure. Is his contract completely out of whack based on market value? No.

People didn't think Osweiler was worth $20M when I raised the question a few weeks ago.

The weapons are around him in Houston. Not to mention that defense should put them in decent situations.

I guess it can work out. There's just plenty of cautionary tales of a QB with s small sample size getting the big contract from another team and flopping. I can't think of any that worked out.

There's too many QBs that we've forgotten about that have looked good for half a season.

The fact that you used IBN as a source tells me everything that I need to know about your sports knowledge.

As much crap as Flynn gets, according to that chart Osweiler will basically make more in one year than Flynn's entire career.
