The fact is we lost the game. Funny "so many teams" have backups that can have success against us but we have one that can't even be decent. Churn the position like we do the rest of the roster.
I have no argument that we lost that particular game. And churning practically the entire roster has been a good practice. I'm simply stating that Flynn's quarterbacking abilities are not as outstanding as implied.

Except Flynn has proven he can play at a decent to good level when taking over for an injured starter. Weeden looked terrible against the Cardinals and has looked like a rookie in practice.

Flynn did his job and did it well for the Packers in 2013. A couple of the wins he had, one of them against us, were vital for getting them into a playoff spot. Remember when Rodgers returned, that Bears game would have been meaningless if Flynn didn't win a game or two.

That's what Flynn would be brought in for, if Romo goes down for a game or two, we can pull out a win that could come in handy later in the season.

If Flynn was any good he would not be a FA now. GB- SEA- OAK- BUF- NE ... From 2012 to present those are the teams he sign with.

Many here seem down on our backup qbs. The pats just released Flynn (hamstring) and signed Lindley. Any interest? I am in the minority thinking Weeden is ok, but would never give up the opportunity to improve the team.

No we have enough sucky QB's !!!

Flynn would not help the QB situation.

That was Romo's fault too!

Just like Romo could not even beat a one legged Rodgers. Remember saying that?

:lmao:Romo should have played some defense and stopped those Packers. Lazy Romo sitting on the bench while the defense does all the work. Come on Romo be a two way player and get out there and play some defense.

Flynn had a 400 yard game on the last day of the regular season that wasn't even relevant enough for Rodgers to play in. Since then he has been cashing NFL cheques like a boss. Hard to say if he's better than Weeden, but if I had to bet on it, when the dust settles it will be surprising just how long both bounced around the league.

Sure. Just churn the roster for the right person.

In 2011 Flynn passed for 480 yards and 6 TD's vs Detroit completing over 70% of his passes.

Fourteen years ago? Damn he was good...Sounds like an Eli stat. You know...one of the elite QB's?
