It's also interesting watching former NFL guys (John Beck, Brian Brohm come to mind) who can obviously throw the ball, but it doesn't necessarily translate into success in the 3-down game...
I prefer Marve to Willy. Willy showed through out the year he has terrible decision making and threw so many god awful costly picks. He literally single handedly threw away 2 games vs the Riders this season on final 2 min interceptions.
