I do not deny that he knows football. What bothers me is that he just does not know when he has said enough about something and then goes on and on about it.

Here is yet one more example...

Joe was adamantly defending Jay Cutler along Radio/TV row in Dallas earlier this week. Joe was saying that Cutler was indeed hurt in the Packers game and that people had been unfairly piling on him for missing the second half of the game. Theismann's point was that Cutler is a "different kind of guy" and that because he isn't like the typical player, he is being judged differently than someone else who missed part of a game due to injury.

Good. Joe has an opinion and made his case and offered his analysis.

Then he went on to compare Jay Cutler to - - - wait for it - - - Jeff George in terms of skill and personality.

If you were Jay Cutler, you had to like the first part of Joe's comments but then he just had to keep on talking...
