Kerry Collins vs Every OSU QB - Forums

Lots of handwringing about how our QBs don't have meaningful NFL careers, and that its a big reason why we haven't been able to get over the hump. This season is over and we compare ourselves to OSU for better or worse, so (while meaningless) I thought it'd be entertaining to do a little...

They compare Kerry Collins's NFL statistics to the combination of the stats for all Ohio State quarterback ever. If you don't want to click, let me spoil the ending for you: they wouldn't post it if their guy didn't come out favorably. It reminds me a lot of *ichigan boasting about Tom Brady.

First, who else do you have? You got one guy. And sure, maybe Ohio State has 0 (so far), but is 1 that much more than 0?

Second, who would trade places? You got Team A that has 1 guy with a decent NFL career, and maybe 0.250 record against Team B. Or Team B, that has 0 guys with decent NFL careers, but 0.750 against Team A. And Team B has many more conference championships, and 3 national championships.

Pump up your team if you want, but it's pretty clear that you're grasping for moral victories.

I noticed that missing from their list is Mike Tomczak, who didn't have a half bad career in the NFL.

Tom Matte spent most of his career as an RB/WR had a terrific half-season at qb guiding the Colts to within a missed field goal of an NFL title.

If Art Schleister could have stayed clear of betting he’d have had better NFL numbers than Kerry fucknuts Collins.

Not to poke fun of alcoholism, but their only winner isn't as pure as they think he is:

Kerry Collins - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org
Before the 1997 season got underway, Collins's private battle with alcoholism started to make public headlines. In a highly publicized incident, on the last night of Carolina Panthers training camp in 1997, Collins used a racial slur in reference to black teammate Muhsin Muhammad while in a drunken state at a bar in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Supposedly, Collins also inadvertently slurred offensive lineman Norberto Garrido, who is of Hispanic descent. It was widely rumored that Garrido punched Collins in the eye as a result, although this was later proven false.[40]

On November 2, 1998, Collins was arrested for drunk driving in Charlotte, North Carolina.[41] He finished the 1998 season in New Orleans and signed with the New York Giants as a free agent on February 19, 1999.[42] Not long before signing with New York, Collins decided to seek treatment for his alcoholism. He entered a rehabilitation clinic in Topeka, Kansas.[43]

While a member of the New York Giants, Collins remained in therapy for four years. As a member of the Tennessee Titans, he readdressed the 1997 racial slur incident, explaining that "The guys were talking to each other that way, and I was trying to be funny and thought I could do it, too. I was so upset by it. It was bad judgment. I could have been labeled a racist for the rest of my career. I had to live with the way I used that word with a teammate. Extremely poor judgment. I was naïve to think I could use that word in any context."

Interesting to note how quickly UF is moving and how quickly PSU is moving.

Lane to UF is essentially done after Marcus Freeman told Florida "No thank you"

I'm assuming Penn State has its eyes on the NFL based on the lack of rumors.

Is LK to UF really a done deal? I thought that he gave some report a bunch of shit in his presser this week about running his mouth (keyboard) and hiding behind ‘sources.’
