but yah, he proved himself in jacksonville

Well think of it this way NON has Rodgers made it thru a full year yet without some sort of injury? Granted he played thru it last year but if hes taking such big hits all the time a serious injury is likely going to happen. Not many qbs can go thru 2 years without missing a game it seems like.
It's nothing against Rodgers just a fact that very few qbs can play every single game of their career.

McCown would be the guy I grab. He's a great fit for McCarthy's offense IMO and would at least be serviceable if something were to happen and they need the backup to step in for a few weeks.

If the backup has to step in for several weeks though, Green Bay's season is done know matter who they go out and get.

Why does everyone think this?

Cassell took over after Brady went down and finished 11-5? Kurt Warner took over and went to 2 Super Bowls, Big Ben took over for an injured Tommy Maddux and so forth hell a former qb took over for an injured qb in GB and look what happened.


A Backup qb is suppose to be able to take over the team and not lose a step.

By the same token, how many years did Favre truly get through the season without injury? He played through many injuries, some of which he realistically probably should have sat out. Playing through injury is part of the job description for an NFL player, and that goes for the quarterback.

Non i know your a Rodgers worshiper and crap but cmon what we had in Green Bay was a fluke face it. I would bet my years salary that Rodgers will miss some games due to injuries sometime in his career. Hell all it takes is one hit, look at Brady.

You certainly glide effortlessly over my point, don't you. I've already stated that I have no problem with us being prepared. I'm only expressing amusement at the degree of paranoia I perceive as underlying a lot of these posts, which stands in stark contrast to the equally unfounded sanguine feeling people used to have about Favre. Simply because he had gone, say, 10 years without missing a game in no way reduced his chances of going down in any particular game (ignoring, of course, his stubborn refusal to break his starting streak). If anything, it increased the chances of its happening eventually, because one can only dodge the odds so long. It will be very interesting to see how Favre fares this season.

Colt Brennan could be a good prospect, we can make a good deal with washinton, they don't want Campbell and I belive next draft they are going to take a premium QB (Bradford for example) and that makes Campbell the backup/mentor next year), so if we give then a player with a low draft pic that they can use to trade up in the draft this deal might happen

Brett played with injuries almost every year cept 2001 and 2007

Because most of us are not obsessed with discrediting and hating our QB.
