That was weird.
Why even HAVE a backup QB if the backup cannot reliably throw a football?

That QB will never be a starting QB. Reasons to have a QB as a backup:

1 - get the green QB reps so he is ready as the starter in waiting. (not an option for this QB)
2 - spell the starter for part of a game to 3 games in case the starter cannot go (best to have a vet for this. That QB cannot do this either)


Before the snow, and with the wind - he was still worthless. I wanted NE to win (because who wants to see a SB with no competent starting QB on one side?) but my God. Denver made a weird roster decision to carry this guy as a backup, that essentially cannot even backup.

Worse, his incompetence made it difficult on the run game - as their D could just stack the line.

Denver had every chance, given the weather evened out the imbalance, but that QB should be cut tomorrow. That was awful.

These weather games make things either really interesting or really boring. Today it was boring and didn’t really show was either team can do.

This was pathetic on all levels.


I will be VERY PISSED if the Hawks blow this opportunity....(but they won't 'cause they're going to crush the Rams tonight!)

A backwards pass? And the defense played like it was live? Amazing. Almost like that is what to do when you’re not sure
Exactly what I told the people at the golf course. They said it was a fumble...they were wrong.
