Re: Joey Harrington
Leftwich is a lot more mobile than people give him credit for. Yes, he is more mobile than Harrington. Don't judge a book by it's cover.
Harrington was actually putting together a career year. I'm not sure he deserved to be yanked, as the one bright spot on that team this year, but Leftwich has been the better player over his career, and it's likely a good move. I picked him up and started him in the Warpath $$ league (as a bye week replacement), so I guess I'm putting my money where my mouth is.

Harrington has not been mobile. Harrington has 383 yards in 76 games and only 1 time reached 100+ yards. Leftwich has gone over 100 yards in a season 2 times, and has 365 yards rushing in 48 games with 8 rushing tds. Harrington has 0 rushing TD's to Leftwich's 8. So yeah, Leftwich is definitely more mobile. Harrington had his shot, and he failed for the most part (4 tds in 6 games). It's time to at least TRY something else. I don't think Leftwich will succeed at all though. No one really can with that pathetic offensive line.

Re: Joey Harrington
Yep, I think Heath Shuler just gave him a call about an open position in real estate.

Was it just me, or were atlanta and seattle not even trying this week? I've never seen the redskins put up that poor of an effort in my life....at lease we have consistent effort

Re: Joey Harrington
Harrington is just not a good NFL QB. You can get by with him for a few games and that's it. With that being said the more I see of Leftwich the more I don't like him as a qb. He takes long slow drops when he passes, his footwork is sloppy and he can't move at all. He a the big arm but that seems to be it. Del Rio made the right move. Garrard is the better QB.

Re: Joey Harrington
ATL is just desperate. Joey hasn't played that bad, but he hasn't been great either. They are just looking for a spark, can't blame them for making a switch.
