...in the 4th with over 10min remaining. Replaced him with Leftwich which did absolutely nothing. I think I'd have put in Redmon before Leftwich.

I wonder who they will play next week against the Giants.

For their sake, I hope someone performs well in practice and takes the job.

We absolutely do not have a decent QB imo. I'm thinking though that how Leftwich plays in practice this week will determine whether he gets the nod as starter next week. Otherwise business as usual with Harrington.

This is an excerpt from Jeff's article (and that 4th down sack was Leftwich down at the goal line trying to score at the end of the game and he looked like he had cement shoes and unable to move):

Tennessee tried to hand the Falcons this game. They committed five turnovers. Four of the Falcons’ last five possessions started at the Titans’ 42, 45, 21 and 19. The results: interception, missed field goal, interception, fourth-down sack.

Wow...Harrington, Redmon and Leftwich...sounds like a box of, once upon a time, high rated rookie football cards...uhm...it actually is...I got dozen of these guys cards...one has to make it...

You got it - our QB's are just a bunch of factory rejects. Of course in Petrino's defense (and it's tough for me to defend this QB issue) he did think Vick would be his starter. But adding on Leftwich recently? No excuse. A lot of us UGA folks were hoping Petrino would pick up David Greene. I felt DG's style would fit into Petrino's offensive scheme. There was an article that they inquired of his agent but nothing else ever came of it. Typical Falcons. Am wondering if the Falcons will go for a QB in their draft this year...I'm thinking they have to. And they probably don't want to waste another QB draft pick since they have some other serious problems but we can't continue down this road.
