[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 447494, member: 77"] Backups generally get reps in blow out wins, qb's included, I'm all for that. I thought you were suggesting putting in Tobias in a hotly contested game just to get him game reps. Some on here are in favor of exactly that I am a vocal opponent of that thinking. I see the value in building depth with live game play, but we only get so many series in a game and we need to score on as many as possible. Training up the next guy is secondary to that, imo. God forbid we put in the backup and he throws a pick six or has a fumble that costs us a game. Not only does that hurt the team, it also destroys the backups confidence. Heck, just having a 3-n-out can cost us the game. I'm for playing guys that give us the best chance to win on that day, period. After that, I'm open to playing backups, but even that comes with the cost of not working on parts of the playbook with which the starters still struggle. The qb is just one part of a complex system of players that must all be on the same page for success to happen. I value a more diverse competent playbook for the offensive starters than building depth for the future. This will help us win against the big boys [I]this year.[/I] [/QUOTE]
