IMO, if JC does not stay healthy or does not perform, and Gibbs has to put MB in as the starter this team is in big trouble. I was hoping the skins would sign a quality backup, not an old geezer thats out of gas.

One year ago, if you had Brunell and Garcia to choose from to start which one would you pick? Also, can you supply a Top 3 Quality Backup QB list that you know for certain will perform the exact same or better than Brunell?

I would have picked Garcia simply because he was younger.

I saw MB play last year (as I'm sure you did) and he looked terrible & out of gas. He's now another year older so I doubt things have improved. Nothing is certain in sports but I think almost any available QB would play better than MB.

I also think he looked pretty bad last year but I also thought Garcia (who actually is 7 months older, by the way) was terrible with both Cleveland and Detroit.

Except he's not younger

I did not realize that. Wow MB looks even worse now. Garcia can move and throw the ball, MB has a hard time doing either.

BTW, what QB has looked good in Detroit & Cleveland?
