More on the Joey Saga
The Lions are issuing some tepid responses, as cataloged here on Mlive for anyone who wants an autopsy, per se.
Len Paquarelli on ESPN seems to have it nailed pretty well. You have to search down, but he says that the sources are probably there, but they are wrong. And, the Lions aren't keeping Joey because they love him, they are keeping him because they don't have other viable options and could win with Joey.
I think this is the answer. I don't see anything better. We should have gotten a better player with the #3 pick, but we didn't. But after all this tortuous, slow progress, do we want to go back and rebuild a young QB? We just can't do it. We're on the ship in the middle of the ocean, and its too far to go back to shore.
