[QUOTE="Jules, post: 456198, member: 4098"] The whole argument has often seemed flawed to me. A team with a good backup does not mean it takes away from the starter, it just means the team has a good backup IMO. For example, the Bears fell apart after Cutler got hurt right. Does this mean Cutler is the top QB in the NFC now because his team needed him to make a playoff push or does it mean that perhaps Caleb Hanie sucked major balls and the depth on offense as a whole was terrible? Look at the Colts. Yes I know, we all know what happened here. Yes Manning is great and meant a lot to Indy. Does anyone think Matt Flynn is perhaps better then Curtis finger Painter? Does anyone think with a capable backup the Colts might have won a few of those close games last season? For Gods sakes, no wonder Polian is gone. Painter was his pet draft pick and the dude even had issues handing the ball off at times in his early camp practices I heard. Blame the organization for not having a capable backup then and also for not changing up the offense enough once the starting QB went down. Personally I also believe the Lions overlooked GB once they found out key starters were out. And Flynn had his moment to shine too and decided to take advantage of it. And I kinda think Flynn might be a good starter in this league too. As for the Pats in 2008, that was almost the same team from a year before that nearly went 19-0. And in 2008 they had a crazy easy schedule. [/QUOTE]
