I said "I know many like to call him injury prone but excluding the last 2 seasons the dude has stay consistent and healthy the majority of the time."
Which is true. Many like to look at his last 2 years and say he's done in the NFL.
Peyton Manning is a great example of someone who many consider done in the NFL and came back to have one of his best years with the Broncos...
I also like to know where you get the 90% can't stay healthy.
Difference is AJ isn't a veteran player who's been in the league for 10 years and stayed healthy the majority of the time.
Further, do not compare Peyton, who is one of the best to ever play the game and one of the smartest QB's to ever lace them up, to Tony Romo. And did you see Manning at the end of his career? He was a shell of himself.
As for my 90%...let me fill you in on Tony Romo's injury. Romo suffered an injury that isn't commonly seen in athletes. In fact its most commonly seen on elderly adults with weak bones. Yes....I'll repeat that...Tony Romo's injury is most seen in OLD PEOPLE who are weak. Couple that together with his other back injuries and what you have is the potential for serious biomechanical issues that could affect his performance and mobility. Do you want to pay 17 million plus dollars for that risk? If so I'm glad you're not the Bears GM.
Lastly, AJ is a veteran, he's been in this league for 5 years, and I will take a risk on a skill guy with soft tissue injuries over a guy who's had multiple back injuries and just came off a back injury usually found in 85 year old fall victims.
