Who has best Backup QBs

The Browns Board
16 12 608
  • Lots of talk lately about Backup QBs. All teams should need a good one all things considered (or...just one thing considered....injury). Here are the league back up QBs. Who has the best? You can rank them individually, or in groupings (or, if you think the backup is better than the starter...say so):

    AFCEast

    Pats: Jacoby Brissett (actual starter...Brady out first 4 games)

    Jet: Geno Smith

    Dolphins: Matt Moore

    Bills: EJ Manuel

    AFCNorth

    Bengals: AJ McCarron

    Ravens: Ryan Mallet

    Steelers: Landry Jones

    Browns: Josh McCown

    AFCSouth

    Colts: Scott Tolzien

    Texans: Tom Savage

    Jags: Chad Henne

    Titans: Matt Cassell

    AFCWest

    Chargers: Kellen Clemons

    Raiders: Matt McGloin

    Chiefs: Nick Foles

    Broncos: Mark Sanchez

    NFCEast

    Giants: Ryan Nassib

    Eagles: Chase Daniels

    Cowboys: Jameil Showers #....their backup, Dak Prescott, is now starting

    Redskins: Colt McCoy

    NFCNorth

    Lions: Dan Orlovsky

    Bears: Brian Hoyer

    Packers: Brett Hundley

    Vikings: Joel Stave # ....their backup, Shaun Hill, is now starting

    NFCSouth

    Falcons: Matt Schaub

    Panthers: Derek Anderson

    Bucs: Mike Glennon

    Saints: Luke McCown

    NFCWest

    Cards: Drew Stanton

    Rams: Jared Goff

    49ers: Colin Kaepernick

    Seahawks: Trevone Boykin

    Give your best and worst.....plus maybe state which teams have the biggest....and smallest talent gap between starter and backup.

You can rank them individually, or in groupings (or, if you think the backup is better than the starter...say so):

    Dolphins: Matt Moore--Adam Case has him playing well

    AFCNorth

    Steelers: Landry Jones--He Really SUCKS

    Browns: Josh McCown

    AFCSouth

    Texans: Tom Savage--Over a aging McC--Should start someWhere NOW..

    AFCWest

    Raiders: Matt McGloin--Needs Opportunity

    NFCEast

    Redskins: Colt McCoy--Keep's Pounding

    NFCNorth

    NFCSouth

    Panthers: Derek Anderson--Aging, but the bitch is accurate

    Bucs: Mike Glennon--Will be well overpaid next season

    NFCWest

    Rams: Jared Goff--Big Money for a Back-up?

    Texans- With Savage Healthy he's better than that Donkey Bitch Os-Wilder..Worst--Landry Jones can't beat Tarboro High School 😛

  • Best 6:

    1. Eagles: Chase Daniels - also represents my "closest gap" team
    2. Browns: Josh McCown - a pro's pro...
    3. Rams: Jared Goff - the #1 waiting in the wings as a #2
    4. Texans: Tom Savage - kid looks to be "getting it"
    5. Bengals: AJ McCarron - nice 2015 fill in justified my faith
    6. Panthers: Derek Anderson - matured nicely

    Worst 5:
    28. Broncos: Mark Sanchez - just should not be this bad... and maybe he isn't...
    29. Bills: EJ Manuel - I keep thinking "maybe"; he keeps replying "no"...

    30. Vikings: Joel Stave - edge of the precipice...
    31. Jets: Geno Smith - no... just no...
    32. Steelers: Landry Jones - brings the phrase "hot mess" to mind...

    The best division collectively looks to be the NFC South... no studs, but also no duds...

    NFCSouth

    Falcons: Matt Schaub

    Panthers: Derek Anderson

    Bucs: Mike Glennon

    Saints: Luke McCown

  • My favorites are Luke McCown, Derek Anderson, Colt McCoy, Brian Hoyer and Josh McCown.

    The best? I dunno, nobody stands out as someone that should be starting.

    hmmmmm... common thread?

  • I like the Titans Cassell. Seahawks would have to rely on the Rook Boykin-not a good thing for him or the team.

    That's close to mine, maybe the Bengals QB as best of maybe 10 you could put in a hat and pick one.

    I do know who will get booed the most on or off the field (hint: CK).

    I think your list is on the money other than you have Goff in the wrong group. He's a straight bust.

    I think we'll know about Goff by end of the season. Anything short of his being a lock as the Rams' 2017 starter will certainly bring "bust" into the conversation.

  • Garapolo is the backup and he's e best of the bunch. I see no difference between Tyrod Taylor and EJ Manuel. Dak Prescott was the best coming out in this year's draft. Romo is through, kaput, finished. It's Prescotts team now! And they have a good offensive line and Ezekiel Elliot.

    goff isn't even the back up mannion is

  • Unless something changed from last night, Goff is listed as #3

  • Garapolo is the backup and he's e best of the bunch. I see no difference between Tyrod Taylor and EJ Manuel. Dak Prescott was the best coming out in this year's draft. Romo is through, kaput, finished. It's Prescotts team now! And they have a good offensive line and Ezekiel Elliot.

    Dez Bryant will do what he does best & run his mouth. Zeke will see blitzes he has never dealt with before..Good Luck with That

    I think you are right D, Sean Mannion is #2 . I still think if he ever gets the chance to play, he will be really HUGE . Make the Rams Great again lol
