Rank our Backup QB

(05-26-2016, 08:46 PM)Shake n Blake Wrote: Grad sucked, but Campbell was not a bum. He had a good track record as a starter with the Skins. Had the Raiders off to a great start one year before getting hurt. Henne has started entire seasons and has a pair of 3200+ yard seasons on his resume. He's got a live arm, too. He's better than any backup we've had since Kitna. Honestly, Fitzy sucked for us. He was straight awful in 2008.

Sure it's easy to laugh at some of these names because they weren't great starters, but we should be judging them as backups. I like McCarron's potential over most of these guys, but lets be honest. 5 games (1 that was pretty awful and the rest being "meh") doesn't really tell us much. Hue really neutered the offense for McCarron, so it's possible he could've lit it up had they taken the reigns off him. Then again, he could've tossed 15 INTs too.

Heck, Foles lit it up for almost a whole season - playing well above McCarron's level - and now he looks like warm garbage. So it's really hard to say whether or not McCarron is going to amount to anything. If he does, it's probably not going to be here. That kid is probably going to bolt as soon as his contract is up to find a place where he'll get a shot. That's why I hope we trade him next season, if we can find anyone whose interested.

Campbell played like a bum for us. The 08 team was turrible, Fitz did what he could and though the results weren't great, you could tell he was solid and that's why he's since gotten the opportunities that he has. McCarron showed enough that not nearly every qb who ever started a game and is still in the league is better which is what some of the lists of guys being posted almost amounted to. He had a playoff game won for us, it was done and only the worst choke job in history changed it. For getting his first starts in a playoff race and then a wildcard game to perform as well as he did was huge and I can't really relate to people not being happy about him as our backup, or the submitting that about 15 guys including proven hacks regardless of their larger body of work would be a better option.
Being a Bengals fan is like being in love with a narcissist.  It's a brutal, emotionally abusive relationship but I never leave and just keep making excuses for them.
