Does hand size really matter for quarterbacks?

You know what they say about dudes with big hands ... they wear big gloves.

Whenever I see the topic of hand size and quarterbacks re-emerge, I think of Jeff Foxworthy’s bit on guys with big hands, feet, nose and ears. That’s about as serious as we should take quarterbacks and their hand sizes.

On the MHR Radio Podcast, that’s the level of seriousness Adam Malnati and I gave this topic. In the nature of such things, it’s a piece of the puzzle. But to hold this or any other above the rest as the reason one guy plays well and another doesn’t is absurd.
