Leak has been criticized all season for potentially game-changing mistakes. The interceptions, fumbles (or incomplete passes), and sliding just a yard or two short of the first down have drawn a great deal of disapprovement. And I admit that those mistakes were very disappointing.
But look at what Leak has done. He has played QB for the team with the toughest schedule in the nation statistically in 2006 and still managed to lead the Gators to victory 12 times, only losing one game to Auburn after a controversial call.
So he's made mistakes. Lots of players do. But he doesn't let it knock the Gators out of the game. When mistakes are made, he focuses on what the team needs to do in upcoming plays, not the mistakes committed in past plays.
Maybe his wins aren't pretty, but we're not talking about ballet. It's football -- a game that you play to win. I don't care how you do it as long as you win. And winning is exactly what Leak has done.
