Do we need a veteran back-up at quarterback?

[Scott Campbell]

Didn't Tim Couch play ok as a rook?

No. That was Alex Smith.

Wow...can't believe how many #1 overall picks completely busted over the past 2 decades....Aundray Bruce, Kijana Carter....then the Qb's like Ryan "I'll kick your ass reporter and whine like a beyotch cuz I'm sensitive" Leaf, etc. etc. Crazy shit. Not saying A-rod's the man yet, but damn Alex Smith??

AJ Feeley just became available.........




Isn't AJ Feeley a kicker? I'll take Brohm over AJ Feeley.

[Zool]

You're probably thinking of Jay Feely.

If TT doesn't bring-in a vet backup, he will have failed in his GM duties.

Brohm is not ready to be an NFL starter. He & Flynn might get a little better with 3 more games, but the team would still be in a vulnerable position if Rodgers went down.

AJ Freeley they guy who backed up Dono and Timmy in Philly a few years ago. He almost beat the Pats this yeeeer.

I vote no. Let's be honest with what veterans are available...if Rodgers goes down, I don't see any of them leading use to victory in the post season. They are known commodities, but they are known to be sub-par at best. So what would be the point?

IF Rodgers goes down, it most likely would be for a few games.

A decent Vet can guide the teams to at least a .500 record while Rodgers is out, keep them in contention. I can't see the rookies doing that.

You know you're bad when people discuss your eyebrow plucking vs. your play on the field.

As of right now, I agree. That's the insurance. Someone that can come in and run the offense. Move the chains.

I don't see any decent vets out there...

I'll be happy either way they do it, but the quesion was whether we NEEDED to bring in a Vet. I say we don't need one. I don't feel that they would be markedly better than what we have now. It is a risk either way, but I'd rather that they kept the guys they think are the best players, regardless of their "experience." What good is experience, if all it shows is that you can't cut it?

Yes, Craig Nall

[Harlan Huckleby]

Nall would be OK.
