Make no mistake, Matt Flynn is a good quarterback. He had an above average high school career at Robert E Lee High School in Texas; In college he worked his way up from 3rd string as a sophomore, to backing up historic NFL bust, Jamarcus Russell, to taking the reigns as a 5th year senior and winning a national championship. He also held the beer pong title for a while.
He got drafted in the 7th round by the Packers to keep Aaron Rodgers spot on the bench warm, but when he actually did get to play, he was a god damn maniac.
His fiancé is even oddly hot.
But that's not why he's #winning.
With less than 135 pass attempts over four seasons in the NFL, Matt Flynn finagled a contract with the Seahawks that made him a rather wealthy man. But even though the Seahawks paid him like a starter, boy-wonder Russell Wilson came in to take that number one spot, again leaving Flynn to be the starting QBs Gatorade fetcher.
At this point I'm guessing he has some issues with everyone named Russell. Word is he crapped in Russell Okungs Nike's and refuses to see any of Russell Brands movies (but who doesn't?).
But after throwing for 68 whole yards for the Seahawks in '12 and making 8 million dollars (That's about $117,650 per yard), he has found his way via trade to the Oakland Raiders....
So with less than 150 pass attempts in 5 years...Or 30 attempts a season (Tom Brady could throw that in a half)... Matt Flynn got the Raiders to INCREASE his contract.
W-T-F? Did I mention his fiancé is smokin?
This guy majored at LSU in mind manipulation apparently. And it is because of this that he is a beast. He's like the Kaiser Sozay of the NFL.
Frankly I'm excited to see someone give him a chance to prove himself, because nothing about him says he can't prove himself, but how much god damn money do these teams have that they throw millions of dollars at a guy with less reps than Peyton Manning in 4 games?
I'm betting that regardless of how his NFL career pans out, he can always start a cult or work for Amway.
Fuckin Jedi.
