Jaguars coach is candid in his remarks Aaron Wilson
In a series of candid remarks, Jacksonville Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio made it clear how he feels about quarterback David Garrard.
His overriding message during an ESPN television appearance: Garrard is good, certainly not great.
It's an accurate assessment even if it might not be what Garrard wants to hear.
When asked if Garrard is a Super Bowl caliber quarterback by host Jim Rome, Del Rio replied: "Well, that's a good question. I would say a quarterback like David Garrard can be that with a great supporting cast. You know, I don't know.
"When you look at teams that have won multiple championships, I think they've had elite quarterbacks Peyton Manning type guys, Joe Montana type guys. The elite quarterback? He's not that. I do think David's a good football player."
It's an honest comment, but it raises the question about how Garrard's confidence and his teammates' confidence will be affected in a quarterback whose play has been solid to average for the most part.
