Why don't we have a veteran backup QB?

[QUOTE="Shawnsta3, post: 484431, member: 5065"] As I understand it, the Front Office knows if Aaron Rodgers goes down for a long period of time, basically no matter who we have as our backup our chances for the Super Bowl are over. What the Packers look for in a backup though is someone who can come in for a game or two and at least keep us in contention. (Like Flynn.) While I have given Harrell a lot of flack, I agree with the Packers strategy. Younger in almost all cases, is better. McCarthy wants a young guy he can groom to fit the system. Not some old guy with bad habits who's just looking for some money to shore up his retirement. There is a reason veteran quarterbacks, year in and year out are always in abundance. They don't have much to offer anymore. Besides, if we need a veteran quarterback at the last second I know a guy in Hattiesburg who wouldn't mind the opportunity. ;) [/QUOTE]
