This is hilarious and.
Rookie Stats:

Note- these numbers are not worth the effort of getting them lined up into columns.
Aaron didn't play much as a rookie but at least he had "stats". Hundley wasn't even good enough to get on to the field his rookie season. And don't give me that preseason crap. Preseason stats are nothing. Backups playing backups in vanilla formations where coaches don't really care who wins or loses "just don't get my boys hurt" scrimmages are not games. The outcomes are so meaningless the coaching staffs won't use the proper strategies of going for two to get a tie and go into overtime.
As far as Huntley being so "good" that he isn't #3 on the depth chart- there is no #3. There are only 2 QBs on the Packers roster. Sure they have a guy on the PS but any other team who wants him can get him if they are willing to put him on their 53 man roster. No one does. 2 tried it and bounced him within weeks. I was going to look but don;t want to waste my time. There are probably not more than 5 or 6 teams that even have 3 qbs.
1. Absolutely not.
2. Hardly
3. Like Porforis said, what makes you say this? There is no evidence whatsoever empirical or otherwise that would make any reasonable person leap to this conclusion.
See above. SMH.

There is only 2 QBs on the roster because the staff KNOWS Hundley is ready. If he wasn't, there'd be a Tolzien type as #2. They weren't stupid when the got rid of Favre; they knew what they had in Rodgers and this could not be predicted by fans from his stats from his 1st 3 years.
You should read some of my early stuff on Callahan. Steve is one of the smartest guys here [and any other forum] and he didn't think much of Callahan. My response is below. A few weeks later the buzz started, but you heard it right here first; then he made the rosters of GB, NO and Clev, cant get anymore empirical than that in a sound bite.
Steve,
I see the tentativeness of which you speak; but I see it as a positive at this juncture. Hundley is special, arguably more special that Rodgers was at this time in career. Most GMs missed on this guy, because I dont think Ted takes Hundley unless he sees him a 1-2 or early third round pick. Though one advantage Hundley has is he has Rodgers and Rodgers had Favre. Having Rodgers chirp in your ear on every play about not only what was done wrong, but on the tiniest of things to refine and perfect his game is of immeasurable value to a guy who is an intelligent talented sponge.
The Niners w/ Kapernick had him do 1 read and the dump-off or run. With the best and healthy OL, Gore and a few decent weapons, he looked decisive and good and he let it rip all the time. Then we saw what Kapernik would be like with Newhouse at Tackle, Quarles at TE and Benson as a RB. He never developed, it was all smoke and mirrors.
Callahan's inability to let it rip is because he's mentally overwhelmed most of the time because he dedicated to the process of learning his progressions. The game planning focused on the run doesn't lend itself to Callahan letting lose either.
Look at the play at :40 2Q 2nd and 13. Davis, Monty and Perillo are lined up right in that order outside in. Davis is first read, he does a slant at about 7 yards; Perillo is #2 with an in at the sticks; and Monty #3 is running the seem. Freeze frame when Callhan begins to draw back his arm, Monty is covered by a guy at second level [who have dropped about 10 yards of LOS]. But Monty comes open running as he clears 2nd level and Callahan drops the ball in right between 2nd level and closing safety, he just overthrew an open Monty by a few yards. Callahan threw with great anticipation and threw to the guy that would yield the best results. His aim was a little off; but this will improve as the reads become more automatic.
On the next play it was 3rd and 13 and 2 guys were kept in to block and the 3 receivers ran patterns no more than 5 yards deep. Why max protect on a 5 yard or less routes? Makes no sense. If this was regular season and if Mike McCarthy ran that play, it would have been to get intel on the D; I assume Callahan called the wrong combo of routes and protection.
