Winning doesn't matter as much as you think it does to the NFL. Every year 50% of teams have to have losing records. In Cleveland this year, the NFL is gonna go with Manziel or Hoyer because they are more popular than Vince, not because they are better quarterbacks. They aren't better quarterbacks, in fact. But the NFL feels their audience would rather see them. The NFL is largely driven by the media that markets it, so we will continue to get fads and hype rather than a guarantee that the best man for the job gets to play QB.

The truth will always be secondary to what people would rather choose to believe. In this case people want to believe that Vince is some kind of failure, that it was his fault Fisher benched him in Tennessee, that he "played bad" in Philly, Buff, GB, and Cleveland. But the truth is he is, and always has been, a great football player.

let the 6'4 230lb gazele of a QB improvise (use his legs, or throw after breaking the pocket and therefore breaking down the coverage) and win you the game. VY, like Kaepernick, Wilson, Luck, RG3, Newton....Can EXCEL at doing that, STILL. If you doubt that, or don't even care to see him try, you're a $#@!ing joke of a UT fan and football fan in general.
