I thought Graham Harrell was a pro-bowler in the making who's capable of leading us to multiple Super Bowl championships if Rodgers were to go down.. I mean, no sh*t! Of course the team would suffer if the reigning NFL MVP were to go down. It's beyond retarded that people expect the backup f***ing quarterback to not only step in and replace a pro-bowl and MVP caliber player, but to somehow lead the team to the playoffs and win the Super Bowl. Veteran or not, there is not a single backup quarterback on any single team's roster that would be capable of playing to the level of Aaron Rodgers. Look, what happened to the Bears when Cutler was lost for the season last year is more indicative of what I'd expect if our starting quarterback went down, regardless of how good the defense or running game was. Maybe we get lucky and our backup has a Matt Cassel circa 2008 type of year, but that feels like an unrealistic expectation that's more the exception than the norm. Regardless of experience, expecting the backup quarterback to just suddenly play to the level of an elite starter like Rodgers is just unrealistic. That is all.</blockquote>
