re: CFN Asks: What’s wrong with Zach Mettenberger?

Mettenberger hasn't played a full season of football since '12 season. He's currently 0-6 as a starter.
I agree with you the majority of you that Tennessee has other issues [specifically oline & defense]. But, Mettenberger isn't the long term answer in Tennessee. If Whisenhunt is smart. He drafts Mariota and then trades him to San Diego for Rivers and some other pieces. That way Whisenhunt has one of his guys under center.
Personally, I think the NFL is moving a way from pure pocket passers like Mett. We've seen what an aggressive defense can do to a quarterback who has zero mobility [Manning vs. Seahawks].

Russell Wilson is the closest thing to a scrambling quarterback to ever win a super bowl. That same Sehawks defense lost to a qb with no mobility the following year.

Tom Brady disagrees against the same team

Please. Manning is way more mobile than Mett and is a quicker decision maker getting rid of the ball to the right receiver. Mett will never be as mobile as Manning but will be better and quicker with the ball (than he currently is) with more experience.

Do you really think this bullshite actually supports an argument?

He played the whole 13 season. Was hurt at the end of the last game.
