If someone is so much better, then why don't they win the job? Hell, maybe Browning is better at playing, but that isn't the only thing that matters for being a back-up QB and he isn't better at whatever that is.
At the end of the day, if someone is genuinely so much better than another player, then why can't they beat him out? Or, in this case, that player above him has not been retained yet Cincinnati is still looking for a back-up QB. It's a valid question and the reality of those situations should make us question our analysis if it doesn't align.
Good point, I think Allen is smart and is friends with Burrow and helps off the field on the bench in certain situations.
Maybe that was the reason they kept him and put Browning on the PS. Plus as the stats show that Truck provided in the other Allen
thread now in the Draft forum, they had pretty much identical stats and Browning played against 3rd and 4th stringers instead of 1st
and 2nd stringers like Allen did.
We are clearly looking for an upgrade now though, which I think is smart. Siemian would be an upgrade.
