The state of backup QB's is very low looking at that list and we know AOC's as good as Jimmy/Garner and Jimmy is the #2 backup, lol.

Jimmy had a small window early on, his arm's been shot.

Kind of weird that Garoppolo and Minshew are ranked higher than AOC when both lost their starting jobs to him in successive seasons.

It's all about what you used to do for me with media in a lot of cases. There was a list recently where they said "why aren't these people signed?", Amari Cooper's and the like. It's because they old, the media helped build them up and become a bit chummy and don't see them for what they are, old. They have value but it's closer to league min now.

The writer is playing us. It’s some computer hacker in a dark apartment who stole the password for a legitimate writer, put all the back up qb names on strips of paper, threw them into a bowl, mixed it around, spilled them on the floor, then chose the ranking by which ones the dog smelled first.

That's what made me laugh. I'd take AOC over any of the others, and probably a couple others.

Its amazing that noodle arm has stolen from so many teams for so long. I just do not get it. Defenses do not even have to cover large sections of the field (he can connect on corner, fades, etc.).
