Pick A Backup QB, ref. 2011-2017

[pbmax]

You have to have one in case of emergency even if you'd rather have an 8th WR. Or if you are M3, a third fullback.

You should approach this as George Allen, Marty Schottenheimer or Jerry Jones. Forget about developing for the future, you want to win now.

edit: Should be DeShone Kizer

dbl pst.

Thanks, Todd. That list is full of abominations.

Ideally, you want a vet he has not only witnessed the horrors of NFL wars, but one who is also seasoned in the bloodshed of combats, as the backup to your deity QB. The fact the superabominations like Hundley were playing a tons last season reeks collusion.

Kap should've donned the Green and Gold last season. McCarthy pretty much simplified his simple offense for Hundley. Kap and his high Wonderlic score could've mastered that offense in 2 weeks time. Pack would've won at least 5 games while the GAB was on the disable list, and then won the Super Bowl once the GAB was fine and dandy again.

Btw, I picked Hill. He's less of an abomination than the other abominations.

That looks like a line-up of Browns starters. None of them can win. I'd probably take Kizer, although his MO at Cleveland was to lose winnable games late. Taysom Hill might win you a game with a critical tackle on special teams.

I agree about Kap entirely.

But I do love the idea of a special teamer leading the Packers at QB. It would almost be like signing Tebow.

Tebow was never an abomination. All that guy did was win and win the in the clutch.

He was less than Dilfer. Trent let the great defense carry him to a championship.

Bad troll. Bad. Nnnnno. Stop it.

but can he hit left-handed pitchers?

If Tebow had stayed employed as a starter, he might have learned at a Dilferian rate and been good enough in year 4 or 5 to allow that great Bronco D to carry him to the Super Bowl ala the Original Hasselbeck brother:

I went with Hundley. Even though I don't think he was very good, he did win 3 games and would have had a 4th at Pittsburgh if the defense had showed up. Have any of the others won games?

[red]

almost impossible to say

seneca could have been the best of the group if he hadn't gotten hurt after 1 play or whatever it was

this is really like the joke about the gold medalist at the special olympics

[texaspackerbacker]

How can people who have not yet even played a down even be included, given the premise of the poll "2011-2017"? I'm hopeful Kizer amounts to something; I'm about 52/48 that he beats out Hundley, and I don't rule out keeping both. Taysom Hill also never played a regular season down.

Several in there were total flops, at least one I had high hopes for - Coleman. I liked Tolzien - maybe partly Badger bias. I liked Callahan - but he too hardly did anything in the regular season if at all. I went with Hundley. I've always said, he was not as bad as the bashers claim.

[pbmax]

I picked Wallace. But I agree with Joe it might actually be Hundley, as bad as he looked at times.

Which goes to show how weird Flynn's situation was. He never started anywhere else, but was the king of backups here.

[Zool]

Flynn was Doug Pederson Next Generation. If he were a baseball player, they would call him a AAAA player.

The only reason I picked Callahan is his name. That is a Hollywood movie name right there.
