The Backup QB position: Cooper Rush/Jake Browning-4 weeks to BYE & Burrow
#33
I gotta confess to one thing. I've always considered NFL backup qbs to be the most overrated position in the league, just in terms of how if you ever need to rely on them you might as well tank the year. Especially when you have a dog like Burrow who won't come out of the game unless he's suffered something truly catastrophic. There are exceptions to the rule- like Foles or Hostetler or whomever- but I find it's generally true. And I still believe that.

What I don't believe is that my label for them is accurate anymore: the collarbone quarterback, in that that's the one injury where backups could be useful. I stand corrected. There are clearly others. Tweaked calf, for example.
