Heck freaking yes!! Not when we could have replaced him with Dominique "Dynamite" Davis for pennies on the dollar.

If I'm gonna go 4-12. I'd rather pay Dominique Davis $480,000 to do it than pay Matt Ryan $20 million to do it.

Case in point...

There aint a chance on God's green earth that Dominique Davis and his 480k would dare have the nerve to slide on the 2 yard line. Then cap it off by doin it on national TV. Then, subsequently, double down - BY F'n LOSING!

Needless to say, I think it is abundantly clear that coddling has it's drawbacks.

No. You presented a weak premise and I destroyed it.

Don't even try it.

My whole conversation with you have been about Matt Ryan and his salary.

But all of a sudden you think I'm talking about 2nd and third string QBs

You're not that stupid

I can't tell if people are really serious when they say any franchise QB truly has competition. News flash! They don't!

Name any and every bonafied "franchise QB" and I'll show you a guy with zero competition for his job. The only and I mean only reason they lose their jobs is because of injury.

I swear people try and make the world unlike it really is for personal gain. Come back to Earth.

Look brother. Yes. You have debated with class ok. That said, you can't just buckle under like that when I retort.

1) We are having a debate.

2) You set forth a premise... and proceeded to leave it hanging.

3) I responded by deflating your premise.

So when you respond by calling me stupid, it doesn't resucitate your premise. What you should do is stay on your point. Concede the flaw in your premise and recalibrate it. You didn't do that. You threw your hands up and bailed on your own position. Matt Ryan does it all the time when the going gets tough.

Here's the problem. You can call me stupid. Even if I concede it...

It's not gonna help you win the argument.

Good answer. If you're going to go 4-12, why pay anybody top money? Silly answer is silly.

There is no arguement.

There is a little thing called context that happens in conversations.

You know my point was that franchise QBs command much of the money for a reason.

Was DD a franchise QB?

No. So there really is nothing for you to refute, except by bringing in a strawman

Seattle Seahawks.

Reigning Super Bowl Champions.

No.

I know what you said.

You have to say what you mean.

This is a debate.

Stay on point.

Oh I see the problem.

You thought when i said the NFL considers the QBs to be the stars you thought I was talking about 2nd and 3rd teamers.

OK, I get it.

How does your use of the word "bonafied" make it any more or less applicable?

In other words, what is the difference between a "Franchise Quarterback" and a "Bonafide Franchise Quarterback"?

Newton

Luck

Kaepernick

Rivers

Ryan

Wilson

Brady

Manning x2

Roethlesberger

Rodgers

Brees

Flacco

Stafford

Romo

Not a single one of them is competing to keep their jobs.

Get over it. It was a dumb idea in the first place. Another poor attempt at trying to flame Ryan. Can't change how the world actually works for arguments sake.

I win.

Your premise is to NOT pay one of the better QBs in the league (proven, don't debate.....please) for Dom Davis because the team didn't win? Why do the Chargers stick with Phillip Rivers? Rams with Sam Bradford? Bengals with Andy Dalton? Cowboys with Tony Romo?

Because no GM in their right mind would release a good QB like either of the one mentioned for a back-up who is CLEARLY inferior. Do you think they'd keep their job if they did? Your are talking from inexperience, with a tone as if you were experience. You nor I have ever been a GM. We wouldn't know the ins and outs. But I know I'd be a much better one than you if this is your ideology of how to play your QBs.

First of all you said name one. I named one.

Then you provide a list...

That makes no mention whatsoever of the Alex Smith-Less San Francisco 49ers.

You know what makes it interesting?

That fact that the Seahawks and 49ers serve as perfect examples of how teams can catapult themselves to success by saying F*** that to "Franchise QB's".

Just goes to show how the message is received when you show the team that EVERYONE is accountable.

Thanks for the scenario bro. It's been very useful.

First, I need you to clarify who you are proclaiming to be "one of the better quarterbacks in the league".

Competing for second string. That's the OP's point.
