You do remember who won the Super Bowl last year?
Denver Broncos? 9 games Peyton, 7 games Brock = WORLD CHAMPS?
2105 playoff teams..........
Houston - Playoffs with 4 QB's. Brian Hoyer, Ryan Mallett, T.J. Yates AND the critical win by COWBOYS release Brandon Weeden!
Steelers - 10w-6l, 5 games with Vick and Landry Jones, 3w-2l or they wouldn't have made the playoffs "See NYJ"
Cincy - 12w-4l, AJ McCarron had to fill in 2W-1l, won the division.
----------Just a few recent examples
Jets - 2015, 10w-6l with Fitz the backup
Arizona - 2014, 6 games with Palmer, 3QB's, playoffs, 11w-5l a game back tied for the best record in the NFL
Packers - 2013, Rodgers started 9 games and still won the division with Matt Flynn, Scott Tolzien and Seneca Wallace.
Didn't Philly win the division with backup Nick Foles a couple years ago?

Just had to give a shout out to the NFL and their TUFF action on drugs and violence. Violence, keep it off the field!
Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus was suspended four games for missing drug tests. On Saturday, he announced his decision to enter a rehab facility.
The NFL spent 10-month to investigate and suspended Giants kicker and wife beater Josh Brown, ONE game. Of course his wife isn't going to testify against her money tree. She told police of 20 other abuse instances but not one was followed up by the attorney's office or the NFL...In return they say neither the police or his wife cooperated with the NFL so Wife Beater Josh Brown gets ONE game for beating up a woman.
The NFL Get Tough On Abuse Policy is in full effect.
For the second straight year in his 3 year career Le'Veon Bell "I didn't know you could get a DUI while stoned" Happened.
2016 - Le'Veon Bell's 4 game suspension reduced from 4 games to 3 games received for failing to appear for a mandatory drug test.
2015 - Le'Veon Bell's DUI and possession charges gets his NFL suspension reduced from 4 games to 3 then from 3 games to 2.........Probation from the courts and 2 games from the NFL for a DUI and possession of 20 grams of Pot.
Good Games NFL, way to crack down.
