When Peyton Manning missed the entire 2011 season, the Colts went 2-14 with Dan Orvlovsky, Curtis Painter, and Kerry Collins at quarterback. When Tom Brady missed the entire 2008 season, the Patriots went 11-5 with Matt Cassell at quarterback ...... if you want to know how valuable a player is, see how the team does without him.

And you want to hear something very ironic in regard to this subject ???
Patriots coach
l Bill Belichickl was once asked if there was one quarterback
l BESIDES TOM BRADY l in the history of professional football whom he would want as his quarterback ??? Belichick said none other than
l Bert Jones.
I dislike Belichick as much as any other fan of the 31 teams not named the Patriots, but I have to give him props for being objective and creative when asked this question.
If Bill Belichick Could Choose Any Quarterback to Lead His Team, He’d Pick Bert Jones
