If Carter was so good, a little competition should not have mattered a bit.
And another thing, you are wrong about Hasselbeck. Dilfer was there for three years.
Competition wasn't what bothered him. Fair play was the problem. How many qbs have been benched for 9 games for a guy who hadn't played football in 4 years, then proceeded to go 2 and 7 with Jerry saying after the season that he stilled liked Hutch's potential and that they were going to go with him next year.. In the first part of 2002,Carter outplayed Steve McNair,Kurt Warner/Jamie Martin and played Kerry Collins dead even. He also threw 7 touchdown in seven games and averaged 209 yards a game passing, whereas Hutch threw 7 downs in 9 games and averaged 170 yards a game with our only wins coming against teams that didn't make the playoffs. He knew that Coslet had Jones' ear and wanted to push him out cause he liked Hutch better, not because he played better.
As for Dilfer, he's no threat to anyone. He's about to be benched in favor of Charlie Frye, he's been so average.
