I would rather have a bad right-handed QB than a good left-handed QB

My team had a bad left handed QB that led us to the playoffs, so I'd say give me the lefty that wants to win over losers like Joe Flacco or Case Keenum.

So you're willing to have a BAD right handed QB and lose as opposed to winning with a left handed QB?

Forgive him, he's a Bear's fan and they don't really know what a good QB can do for a team...or even what one looks like in a Bear's uniform

The only bad lefty QB that comes to mind is Mark Brunnell (sp?). Most of his passes were 10 yards bullets below the receivers knees and into the turf.

Sounds like you would be a candidate to wear an I Heart the Red Lobster Jersey?

Bad right handed QB's have won more SB's than good left handed QB's.

In fact, the best left-handed QB (Steve Young) only won one SB. Eli Manning won two.

It's math, bro.

Stabler and Young only have 3 combined SB rings. Hostetler, Dilfer, McMahon, 2015 corpse of Peyton, Eli, Flacco... Racking up titles.

Didn't Flacco win a SB and Keenum go to a conference title game?

Probably some "survivor bias" at play, if a QB is LH he's gotta be really good just to get a shot/stick around.

22 "notable" LH QBs in the NFL, some of which were garbahg, like Tebow, Leinart, Chris Simms, and Tyler Palko. Take out those jokers, and you're left with the following:
Frankie Albert
Ken Stabler
Bobby Douglas
Jim Zorn
Boomer Esiason
Steve Young
Scott Mitchell
Mike Vick
Mark Brinell

Two of those nine QBs have won a Super Bowl, most of the rest have at least reached a CCG. So you've got about a 20% chance that the good LH QB can win, the odds for bad RH QBs winning is much worse.

All you have to do is find a RT who is as good as most LTs. I'm sure there's lots of those, right? :wink:

If they are Catholic they will burn in hell for being left handed, so it is easier to sell your soul to the devil to win.

I've witnessed Mitchell "The Terrible" at the helm of my favorite team for three seasons. Yet, I hold steadfast in my beliefs.

Citing one of your devil witchcraft southpaw slinging heathens who saw success in the NFL will not force me to waver. I am aware of ALL OF THEM. Even though it SICKENS me to my core when I even envision their awkward, backwards, football spinning the wrong way throwing motion taking place on my TV screen... the disgusting swine that they are.

You sir have failed to change my mind.

NEXT PLEASE

I believe Jerry Rice did say that it took him a while to adjust to Steve Young's ball.
