me too. they said up to 26 mil, only 10mil guaranteed. That's a lot less than I thought he would get prior to free agency. Now I hope he plays great and earns the whole $26 mil!

I like, its alot less then we would have paid for a rookie with no NFL games under his belt. Atleast we know Flynn can play lets hope he has a great year. He has the weapons around him now the OL needs to step it up and continue to play like they were at the end of the season. Good day to be a SEAHAWK.... 2012 looking good, now lets get us a LB and a pass rusher.
Flynn vs. Rodgers at the Clink.
I don't see how a teams that says " earn everything " can just hand a nobody 10 million dollars , desperate times call for desperate measures I guess. I guess he's the starter now ?
Baldwin is changing his jersey number to 89 so Flynn can take 15. Flynn wore 15 at LSU.

I would expect him to be. Maybe, with all.the qb demand out their, we see what we can get for tj?
That's my guess as well , let TJ see if he can give it another shot on another team, he earned it, he took a beating for us and teams may look at the fact that he played injured and give him a chance.

yeah, let's trade him to the niners.
Isn't Matt Flynn the drummer for Maroon 5 ? I didn't know he could ball !
Damn, I was hoping we would draft that really good QB from Boise State. He was going to lead us to the Super Bowl!
You mean the QB who is only 1 inch shorter than Flynn ?
10 million over 3 years is 3.3 million per year. That's about how much Whitehurst made last year.

We gave $8.5 million to Clipboard Jesus. We gave $8 million to Tavaris Jackson. I see no problem with guaranteeing $10 million to Flynn. When you think about it, he must have impressed PC and JS on Thursday and Friday because if JS thought he was really that good, you would have heard some trade rumors last year or the year before, I think. Wouldn't you have traded for Flynn instead of Whitehurst?
It reeks of desperation, and that's never a good thing. Our offer must have been so much better then Miami's that Flynn's agent jumped on it . Why else wouldn't Flynn wait until Manning is signed, its what Smith is doing working the market , hell the deal that Flynn got is what the 9ers are offering Smith. That's a pretty good payday for Who .....oh ya Matt Flynn. I want this to work I really do , but grasping at straws again as we did with TJ doesn't seem to be working , if Flynn sucks then we waste 2 more years ?

I would probably agree, but what else are we going to do? As long as the money does not prohibit them from doing other things, I am fine with it. What are our other options in the immediate two years and why does this eliminate those options? I am not sure there really are other options.
