Matt Flynn’s friends gave him a hard time about worst quarterback ranking

When the Raiders first convened for offseason workouts earlier this year, the early buzz was that Matt Flynn was looking like he was about to be beat out by another rookie named Wilson, this time instead of Russell of Wisconsin it was Tyler of Arkansas.

But things have changed. Tyler Wilson has since fizzled and is embarrassingly being outplayed in training camp by undrafted free agent Matt McGloin, and Flynn is presumptively the starting quarterback despite marked improvements by Terrelle Pryor. Meanwhile, I’d like to imagine Matt Leinart is somewhere in the early stages of becoming a real life Uncle Rico.

But life’s not all baller status for Flynn. For one, he’s only the starting quarterback on a bad team that get lots of jokes made about it and will knock the universe off its equilibrium if it somehow wins more than six games this season. Second, he’s been called the worst starting quarterback in the league by Ron Jaworski. Even worse than Mark Sanchez. That’s like the lowest of lows.

You may have heard about this already. It was that drawn-out 32-part SportsCenter countdown by Jaworski earlier this summer that you probably left to use the bathroom during.
Flynn heard about it. Worse, his friends heard about it, too. And as all friends are contractually obligated to do, they gave him a hard time about it. From Vic Tafur:
