Point well taken. But considering what we saw out of the quarterback play last season, it wouldn't have mattered if Crompton had gotten a chance. The QB play was that terrible. Between Grossman and Beck, 18 TD passes were thrown against 24 INTs. Both of them had a depressing QB rating of 72.

I doubt if the coaches don't think Crompton can't play. He's viewed as a young developmental project/prospect and are just bringing him along slowly. If not, why sign him to the active roster at season's end?
