Sounded like he had a great night.


It wasn't a great game until you consider the talent level around him. Tennessee played their first team through three quarters. Green Bay played their first team for only one series.
Flynn and Brohm were were being protected by players who probably won't make the team. Javon Kearse was the Titan who hit Flynn from behind and stripped the ball. They were handing off and passing to players that most won't make the next cut. During most of the preseason Flynn has handed off to Lumpkin, an ex Georgia Bulldog who was undrafted. Lumpkin has shown enough to probably make the roster. The receivers, who caught Flynn's TD passes, according to press reports in Green Bay, are not expected to make the team.
Flynn has been impressive by methodically taking what is available and leading the team down the field for a score

This is something that always bothered me. If someone is out playing a high draft pick the front office still is willing to cut the player doing a better job. Why even play the third guy if you have already decided to cut him. I guess coaches have a hard time letting go.
