And I will post a separate thread about Andrew Luck's rookie season as a potential parallel to Burrow's, but Luck was drafted #1, given the reigns, and his backup was Drew Stanton, a 5 year vet with 12 starts in that timeframe.  Do you think he was really going to teach Luck anything?

I like McCown, and I guess he is supposed to be a lot like a Jordan Palmer, can say it but can't do it, but I am fine letting Dolegala and Finley compete as backups and try to develop one of them (Dolegala...I think Finley is a dud).  

The thing is McCown has proven time and time again that he’s a quality backup QB that can step in and win some games. In other words, light years ahead of Jordan Palmer.
