Jeff George should inspire us. I think that it takes a lot of courage to come back with so much negativity around him. Maybe that is what the league needs, a determined player that is willing to face adversity. As long as he has kept up his skills etc. he could possibly be one of the better Quarterbacks in the league. I am sure all of us have made some choices that we would love to go back and try to change. I hope that we do see Jeff George play in some games because I think there could be alot of surprised people out there when he actually proves himself. We all make mistakes. Money doesn't always influence good choices. Give him a chance.

Hey, if there's any coach in football a guy like Jeff George is going to respond possitivly to, it's a coach like Art Shell.
He's not going to take ANY crap from George and, just watch, if he does get in any games he'll be effective!

Man o Man, You have got to be kidding. Should we give Bart Star a chance? or how bout Terry Bradshaw? no wait I think it's time Broadway Joe make a curtain call. Look I have nothing against Jeff except the fact that he has 2 first names. Bringing Jeff onboard the Raiders will do nothing to improve the team or their chances. Jeff had some decent years, but his best year was over 10 years ago. There are plenty of decent free agent veteran QB's out there, Tommy Maddox, Tim Couch, even Kordell Stewart are better alternatives than Ricky Bobby, I mean Jeff George.

Sorry but Jeff George has been a cancer in every locker room he's ever been in. And while he always had ability, he wasn't a winning player. And now at age 38 and 5 years away from the game I can't believe anything has changed.

He didn't just suck the first time around but the second and the third! Trust me as a Dallas Cowboy fan having to go through a season with a 40+ year old QB is no fun ( Vinny Testaverde ) the best you can hope for is an injury. And the Coaches and everybody will tell you experience is great but its not, Look at Big Ben, Eli, Carson Palmer and then look at Bledsoe, Brunell, Favre..........young beats old every time.

Part of the humor behind this transaction is simply because its Jeff George, not because of his age. Jeff George was a joke in the league back when he was young.

Oh yeah, I'm a huge fan. Just look at what he did for the Vikings a while back!
