Can you just say your point? Because that sentence makes zero sense. 

I felt like I did already.

Joe Webb has 7 pass attempts in the last 7 years (all in one drive). This is with 4 different teams.  When he was with carolina before, he was not good enough to be Cam's back up.  Nothing has changed.  No NFL team views him as a QB2..or he would be one.  Not making peanuts as a special teams player.

Joe Webb's entire worth is quality special teams player that can go in at QB (but you really really hope you don't have to do that) if you are desperate.

NFL teams don't view him as a quality back up.  NFL teams don't view him as a QB2.

Neither should we.

So as to the statement that makes zero sense..I will once again point at Joe Webb's pass attempts. 

Seven pass attempts in seven years.

That means he is not seeing the field as a QB.  Because he is not good enough.

Dumb. Will be interesting to see if we pick up a veteran QB once cuts are made by other teams though

 

That is "IF" there is a decent QB that will get released/cut or put on the trading block and the team that QB comes from because we do need one that is average or above average and not below average.

Why did we bring Boston back? He is as bad as I remember watching last nights game for the first time

Tre Boston is actually good enough to start.

Joe Webb isn't good enough to play back up.

Tre Boston actually played pretty well last year in his position.

Joe Webb didn't throw a single pass attempt last year.

I’m not even through the first quarter and I can’t even count how many times Boston has missed tackles/been out of position or just flat out turned away from the play.

Gualden and butler cut.. wow.. that's some mighty fine detective work there..

Whoever read this to you should re-emphasize the fact that is was presented as hypothetical reading tea leaves--but some people with mamma issues create opportunities to be a dick to fill some Freudian void.

Personally, I think bringing in a veteran QB is a bad idea because you want to develop your youth, but at the time, they did not know Cam might be hurt.  When developing players, there is usually a timeline, especially for a third rounder.  When that timetable gets dramatically changed,  it could change what you do.

    • Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?
    • Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.
    • Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
