Should the Bengals be shopping for backup QB?

Someone else (other than him or these 2) that is actually “capable” or even serviceable would be invaluable as we make a SB push.

Look what Dallas, the Stains and RatTurds did last year with their backups.

Yes. I’m jelly.

The Ravens, exactly.  They made the playoffs and damn near beat us with a backup QB.  I'm not expecting anyone to come in and Nick Foles us into a SB win, but we supposedly have the top WR corps and an elite coaching staff, so I'm not willing to just say "Lose 'em all!" the second we lose Burrow, as crappy as that would be.

Burrow is the top man sure, but this team has too much talent and coaching to just give up without him, right?  Imagine the universe where Burrow goes down during an MVP season and Carson Wentz comes off the bench to be the Foles to Burrow's Wentz.  I've just sat through too many "playing for a draft pick" seasons to do so at this moment.
