Used to be you wanted a vet backup who could run your offense for a few weeks. But in today's league, there aren't even 32 starters, let alone competent vets to backup winning teams.

So are teams keeping a plethora of other QB options around to "break glass in case of emergency"? You can't construct a no huddle Oregon or Urban Meyer attack during a bye week, but you can call the plays conventionally.
True dat - so after half a decade or so of a lot of teams only carrying 2 QBs, do they go back to 3, with one guy being developmental, and the other being a college option guy? If something happens to your stater, you go with the option guy and throw out half your playbook?
