What is the latest breakout career that we can think of?

Michael Turner, stuck behind LT. Matt Cassel, stuck behind Brady.

Jim Plunkett was a go-nowhere player for years before he moved to Oakland, caught fire, and won a Super Bowl.

Anyone else get the feeling tryfuhl was hammered last night?

Those guys are polar opposites.

What about Tom Brady? 6th rounder behind Bledsoe, was never going to see the field for a few years until Drew got hurt? I'd say he has come out of nowhere and had a breakout career.

Jerome Harrison?

...yeah. It's not a bad thread but definitely guilty of posting under the influence. For example my ADD thread was made when I was taking painkillers following a wisdom tooth removal. So I know a thing or two about PUI.

Unless you guys saw something that I didn't, no.

What about Chris Chandler? He didn't throw double-digit tds until he'd been in the League 10 years, I don't think. Maybe once in the first 10. But he had 4 or 5 good years with Atlanta.

I'd forgotten all about him. Him and Rich Gannon both were pretty much journeymen QB's who found some success later in their careers. Welcome to the board flaherty!

Some of your posts here, I won't say you used big words but when you throw in words like formulating and correspondence in a reply to "Did you get my PM" that's like drunk overcompensation. All good though

those are pretty standard fare as far as vocab goes, I think most of the time I actually dumb myself down on message boards, but I've had some reading and writing projects lately and I guess some of it spills over, but whatever

the internet could always use more psych's
