Who is our backup QB?

But we are not going to get one.  This is Allen's third season.  If they were interested in upgrading they would have done it before now.

Allen has won 2 games as a starter.  In those two games he completed 72% of 57 passes for 564 yards, 4 tds, 0 int and a 126.6 passer rating

In the other 12 games he has played (0-7 as starter) he has completed 52% of 203 passes for 1025 yards, 4 tds, 6 ints, and a 60.5 passer rating.

He stinks.  I don't want us to spend a big chunk of money on a back up, but we could do better than Brandon Allen

I was never sold on Brandon Allen but Joe vouched to keep him a job likely. If I were the starter I would too because its job security if I'm in a position of leverage.
Many people here think that with this team reaching a SB last season means that it just magically appears again because Joe said he won't tolerate losing. I'll say it again. I love the new additions along the offensive line but the current backups played the music last season along the offensive line.  All if not most of those guys played deep into January. (2nd season)
Who got better?
