#2. Where is he going to go? Why would we let him leave, he will earn the league minimum with us next season.
All this said, he is an extremely capable backup and Im glad we have him.
Lots of guys throw jump balls. Especially to a guy like Higgins. That's literally his biggest talent. There are lots of guys starting in the league who can't make "all the throws" and are also less accurate and athletic than Browning.
If Browning plays even remotely close to the way he has over the last 4 weeks for the last 3, I'd gladly take a bet that he will be at least competing for a starting gig next year.
We can do a sig bet. I'm game.
This is a QB hungry league, and there's always some backup like Matt Flynn, Kevin Kolb or Matt Cassell getting starting gigs after a decent run, and none of those guys played as well as Browning has.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
