In context
PelisseroAnd I just think he needs to be sat down and they need to tell him being a quarterback in the NFL is a very special thing. And right now he's taking it for granted. He is. And there's a lot of guys that have played this game to watch that game to think that right there is garbage.
PelisseroThat effort is garbage. That is not a quarterback in the NFL. We deserve better.
PelisseroAgain, let me level set the Broncos won the game.
PelisseroRyan Fitzpatrick. I'm sure I don't know the whole, you know, behind the scenes, prime video setup. I'm sure that he's got, you know, a cowboy clicker and he's able to see things and check the all 22 and see things that we're not seeing on TV, Billy, where, where we go into an area that I think, I mean, I would certainly guess Sean Payton is going to have some things to say in response.
PelisseroBo Nix knowing how he's wired, going to have some things to say in response, but this is not just, Hey, he's not playing well enough or he's turning the ball over. He didn't turn the ball over by the way, in the game, it was Sam Darnold who turned it over, but to talk about effort,
Pelisseronot competing garbage not an NFL quarterback I'll just give you the floor here Billy
Gilwhat do you make of it well I mean it wasn't a great performance right and we say that he didn't turn the ball over he passed for 107 yards it was a home game the Broncos only had 168 yards of offense at home against the Seahawks now you credit the Seahawks defense obviously as well because they're a tough defense but it hasn't looked good for him so far and and you mentioned that you know they did win the game
