Ernie Accorsi Quotes
Young quarterbacks are going to be like this. Do I think he has to play better? Yeah. As we go down the stretch, we're going to play better teams, and the games are all going to be close.

You might have 15 players rated with the same grade. If it is close, you might go with the need, but it has to be very close. This is no perfect formula. If there is a tenth or two-tenths of a point difference between two players, that's basically nothing but opinion anyway. Like the polls on political elections, it's often too close to call. If it is that close, sure, you are going to go by need. But what you are hoping for is that the highest rated player is the position that you need. And that happens, it happens a lot.

You could see the difference right away. It was not just the things he can do that we didn't have any more. With Michael, the other team knows there is a guy they have to game-plan for. They have to devote resources to stop him on every play. Without that, the entire defensive unit is affected.
