The Texans paid so much for Brock Osweiler, even Matt Flynn can’t believe it.
Flynn, now a member of the Saints, knows what paying too much for a quarterback looks like. He was handed a three-year, $26 million deal by the Seahawks because of one great game he had while on the Packers. But even he couldn’t help but speak up when he heard about Brock Osweiler’s ridiculous new $72 million deal with the Texans.
Wow I know I'm going to get killed for this and I don't have a lot of room to talk, but this latest QB contract is unbelievable…….. 😮

At least Flynn was self-aware with the tweet, but plenty of the fine people on Twitter dot com still took issue with it. He had the perfect response to that, too.
Would it have helped if I said "with all due respect?" #RickyBobby
