    I’ve been thinking about this.

    Have we seen enough of him to really know?

    I “think” he would be okay. But I don’t really know that.

    I think of the Eagles last year and obviously Foles was good enough to win a Superbowl. Are the Rams set at back-up QB?

    Considering this team is now considered a contender–is he a guy everyone feels comfortable with at as the guy off the bench?

    He hasn’t been tested in that sort of situation. And while it’s true that he can be every bit as good or better than a Chad Henne or Chase Daniel–he doesn’t exactly have a lot of real world experience.

    I HOPE he can do it. I’m pretty sure McVay believes in him. I guess fans are okay with him. I’m just surprised it hasn’t been more of a topic of discussion or possible concern.

    And of course–hopefully we never have to find out.

    When a team is a playoff-caliber team, i always like a veteran backup QB.

    I’d like to see them sign George Blanda.

    Maybe it’s just me, but I think Geroge Blanda is a little too dead to be a back-up QB in today’s NFL.

    Sure, maybe you could scheme around that 20 years ago or so, but not now.

    If I’m going with a dead Raiders quarterback I’m going with Kenny Stabler.

    I do believe that the Browns are bringing him in for a look though so we need to move quick.
