It was the shot and it probably -- I was a rap song always schaeuble banks and that's a rapper. And you pick out of them you don't normally I'm right on top of these things do -- they'll -- that it will be excitement yeah exactly. But Don today. On SI dot com ranks the 32 backup quarterbacks. In the NFL from one to 32. Now as he thought we -- finish let me get to an okay Michael before you start -- he points out it requires some. Some theorizing on his part because some of the the competitions for starter and backup mark quite done in the league. You know he talks about. You know things like now was that salaries that they haven't really decided on the starter yet. But he's assuming it's going to be this guy -- of this guy will be the backup that's or San Fran Arizona some of these Arizona's -- where he's got liner as the backup right now right but then and he said Arizona hates that. For instance he doesn't have Matt Cassell wants. Because he's the arising -- already have a job. He's got. Matt Gutierrez as the backup quarterback he's got a ranked thirtieth in the league out of 32 -- the tube but it them I'm in the Dan Orlovsky from Detroit them. And the Green Bay has got to be Brian Brohm Greene -- is is dead last year. According to what he -- But it's it's an interesting topic that you started yesterday we we knew based on Peter king's Monday morning quarterback but Don banks was going to write this today. And will talk about all of the stuff with Don and and you know he also and as he should you know talks about the difference between you and a can a guy give -- gamer too. Committed an end you know spell your starter when he tweaks in the -- or is he going to have to become the starter and there's a difference there obviously. Nudity talk about a went four and one. When he got thrown into the starters role a year ago. You know and and perform pretty old Sage Rosenfels. Sage Rosenfels who he says is the third best backup in the NFL. You know he had a command as a starter for five games you know he went four and one I mean god you'd be thrilled if your packed up quarterback got thrown in for five games and went for a one.
You know the more I think about it the more right I feel -- surprise -- it's just like you know me look at. The thought about that you've ever felt more wrong about something it's not all odd when I think about things -- it's pretty equal but I think I was right or wrong that's and the more I think about it. The more right I feel I mean again listen this station the last three -- yours all here all day long you're listening is that oh yeah. Bill Belichick is the ultimate attention to detail coach he leaves no stone unturned I can't argue it there's the hot. What are eventuality. That could -- that he hasn't prepared for and that's and I largely agree that it's my true feelings or -- which. So this in -- master of -- to help this guy who leaves no stone unturned. Is going to leave himself Eric the most important position. On the field it doesn't make any sense to me. Well where right where I disagree with you with that I don't think backup quarterbacks the most important position on the field dale. Quarterback. Does and their quarterback hasn't missed a start a 106 straight game is not the master Tito does he leave any stone -- or not but I know I'm sure we UN might mean my total on that. So that that guy. Is going to going to a season and the most important position on his team well I also don't nothing else I also don't think that he's in -- he has made Tuesday all the more so he's won and I didn't -- well -- that -- that it usually widens again. I heard -- haven't had a putting words in people's mouths and and mocking them when it's the words coming out of your arm out that should be blocked. What I said wise he's made mistakes here. I don't know who was backup quarterbacks going to be. I'm not convinced it's on the roster right now you think it's should be someone else I I think that it likely will be -- I yeah I think they need to get somebody -- ago something outlet that is whether that's. Yeah Europe and given year. -- Helping out here what's the difference between thirteen point three and zero point zero.
