Jon Kitna (official thread)

But seriously, he has to be optimistic. He can't march out there after saying, "I think we suck."
I can't find the newspaper clip, but this guy disagrees.

I would like to believe Kitna but we have had good to great receivers for quite a while. As Troy found out in the NC game last year it doesn't matter how good your receivers are if you only have 3 seconds to throw the ball. I would have much rather got Joe Thomas than Calvin Johnson. 5 wins sounds more like reality. Stranger things have happened though. (Columbus Destroyers)

I thought about that, too. And it's a slightly different situation. First, was that Breaston? I guess I thought it was someone else, but I can't think of who else it might have been. Who cares who it was? Anyway, he shouldn't have said it. He's STILL getting busted on it. Although, I can't even remember who it was, so maybe it isn't so bad, anymore. Second, it was after a couple of losses. The quote, if I remember correctly, was "Right now, we suck." It wasn't anything like, "We're going to lose half of our remaining games." He was down on how his team was playing, and saying that they need to turn it around. He put a positive spin on a crappy situation for them. Kitna is saying that he thinks his team is pretty good. He's being optimistic. Maybe the more diplomatic approach would be something like, "We're going to go out there and put our gamefaces on and take it one game at a time and play our best and see what happens." But that's boring. That doesn't stir up discussion on internet message boards.
