[QUOTE="slaughter25, post: 455966, member: 3912"] The evidence I always see for someone being a system QB is if the starter goes down and the back up can still come in and produce and I just don't understand it. I think that if your back up can come in and be successful it is because the franchise prepared well enough to have a solid back up plan and a surrounding cast that can pick up the slack. Back to what makes a "system qb", in my mind it means that someone is limited in someway that would prevent him from being successful in any other offense other than one very similar to the current system. For instance, Alex Smith is a system QB in my eyes. He does well enough in the west coast offense making short to intermediate throws but he wouldn't be nearly effective in a down the field aggressive passing attack, nor would be excel in a mobile QB offense like denver last year with tebow or the eagles with mike vick. The fact that people try to use this label on guys like Aaron Rodgers who can do it all just baffles me. [/QUOTE]
