Who's the last QB to leave the team they were drafted because they wanted more fame in a bigger market city? Because the way the NFL is, that's ALL you get when you go to a bigger, better, market.

Kirk Cousins wanted more money and went to ****ing Minnesota. Yeah... HUGE step up there, Kirk.

Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers signed multiple longterm deals to live in a city that has a Walmart, an Arby's, and little else. And the only reason Favre left was because the team didn't want him anymore. Peyton Manning had to be CUT from Indianapolis. Yes, ****ing Indianapolis. A large American city that smells like shit and is populated by backwoods weirdos.

How many chances has Drew Brees had to leave New Orleans? He's on what... his 4th contract with them now? Matt Stafford is fine in Detroit, where he's not winning playoff games AND still having to pay Bubba $10 every day to make sure his car is still in the practice facility parking lot of Ford Field.

Seriously. Name me a single ****ing QB who left/signed with a new team specifically for the "market". I don't think a single ****ing example exists in the history of the NFL.

Yeah.

Hell, one reason Florida is so popular for free agents isn't the size of the markets. It's the state income tax laws.

Or lack thereof.
