i dunno, QB jerseys are pretty tight. i'd say more people have a QB's jersey than any other position player.

Different players wear their jerseys differently. Quarterbacks need a lot more mobility on their upper body, so theirs tend to be a bit looser. Running backs, for example, tend to be tighter because they don't want to give people something to grab while tackling them.

what are 'lose' jerseys?

What Tom Brady wears.

Yeah, 3 Superbowl Rings and dating Giselle Bundchen makes him a loser. :confused:

Yeah, that superbowl where he beat the Giants for a 19-0 season was awesome.

D linemen probably have the tightest fitting jerseys - they don't want to give the O lineman anything to grab onto

So that season his win to "lose" ratio was 18-1.
Manning's was 14-6.


Brady is so terrible, right?

The jersey is a little loose on QB's because they're all skinny bastards.

Forget Manning(s), forget Brady.... DREW BREES FOR MVP.
It's not his fault he's surrounded by stupidity (on defence at least)
