  1. that's not true at all. i remember a year in which the backup had to start the season for us, was bad, but not bad enough to matter all that much and we made the playoffs. last year the titans' qb went straight insane, the backup came in, was just above average and not only led them to the playoffs, but made the pro-bowl. sometimes the backups just have to be competent, or even just below competent. "almost every team is out of luck" "sometimes the backups" yeah, these are not contradictory statements. I don't know what "argument by agreeing" is in Latin, but this is it. Hanie could turn out to be Brady II. I'll bet against it. i guess i didn't make my argument clear. most teams don't suffer significant injuries to their starting quarterbacks, so it's impossible to know for certain if almost every team in the league would be out of luck. i'm just pointing out that it has happened, and recently. also, not every team in the league is close to being a playoff team, so it would appear that it's not totally uncommon for a backup qb to play an important role in a playoff run. if the team is built around a qb, then the sky will come crashing down, if the team is built around the defense, then it probably won't.

  3. and you'd be justified in your dislike.
  4. basanez, if you can believe it, is just as brutal as hanie.
  5. lol luke mccown is good? colt brennan is good? ok no, really, those guys are great.
  6. you're missing the point... suck is suck and if cutler is lost, this year is a great failure i'm not going to hope that luke mccown can salvage a 7-9 record for us meh, i'm just saying that putting a guy that can actually throw a football at qb is the first step to finding a brady or romo. i hope we never have to take the second.
  7. except hanie is really bad and those other guys are like, like, good.
  8. fair enough, backups don't matter at all.
  9. either would be better than hanie.
  10. i can safely say that hanie is not a diamond.
  11. no, hanie is terrible and i can't stand the sight of him. he doesn't belong on an nfl roster. he's practice squad.
  12. that could put knox on the team.
  13. this guy has another dumb argument. who has been better over the last 72 hours, huh?
  14. hanie has got to be replaced.
  15. why don't you go get hurt again, lloyd?
  16. once he started moving, he loosened up.
  17. what collinsworth said about having the pocket awareness and being able to slide around a little is spot on. you either have it or you don't. cutler is just a natural.
  18. yeah, he needs to just grab him and fall on that [expletive] midget just once.
  19. i've noticed that dumervil has a fixation with touching jay cutler, no matter how late he gets there.
  20. that pass was a freaking laser beam, not well placed, though.
  21. and a great catch by olsen, too.
  22. where's the flag on that one? payne gets a flag but this a-hole doesn't?
  23. somebody get a still of orton holding up his bleeding finger, please.
