Im no Buehler, but the point remains the starters are more important than the backups.

Peyton Manning is a 10. Jim Sorgi is a 4. The Colts QB situation is not a 7.

Starters > Backups
Wendys > Any other fast food chain
So, your logic states that the Colts are a team of one and should be judged on that one position alone.

Do you understand what the thread's topic purposes? My post focused solely on my fan's confidence involving a combination of both starters and backups... also know as the team.

Certainly, the starters are more important than the backups. That's a given. Are you going to next state that Tony Romo is a ten, Jon Kitna is a six and that the Cowboys quarterback situation is not an eight? Do you also believe that I would possibly disagree with you?

:huh:

Here is my personal grading system...may not make sense but it is my grading system.

Offense - 8
Defense - 7 (need to see more takeaways and better 2min D)
Special Teams - 7 (expecting significant improvement)
Coaching - 6

Total = 28 / 4 = 7

Two 2009 Mercedes Benz S500's are not of equal value to a pair of 2009 Honda Accords.

Agreed. I follow. :D
You won't see either model produced in the other manufacturer's factory, but there may be automobile dealerships which feature both for sale on their lots--kinda like how Eastern Illinois produced Tony Romo and Central Washington did the same with Jon Kitna and are currently co-habitating the same team.

Of course, I don't know if both schools could be categorized as either a Mercedes Benz or Honda. ;)

I have no idea what were arguing about anymore. All I know is that the quality of the starters holds more weight than the backups.

Just change your rating to a 7.5 so we can get on w/ our lives

This is a grading even John Glenn would approve of.

Well, it makes sense to me, but I must caution you that Peyton Manning is a ten and Jim Sorgi is a four.

I haven't a clue what your statements of the obvious meant in the first place since they had zero bearing on my post. Heck, my post states what you began to harp on after the fact. :huh:

Well, duh. Who's disagreeing with you.

Does fourteen divided by two somehow equal 7.5 for you :confused:

Your right. Half the players will go down w/ injuries, so the depth being a 5 does bring it down to a 7.

Are you really expecting that to happen?

No matter how you attempt to twist it, teams are composed of both starters and backups, but don't worry. I'm not going to dispute your claim that Manning is a ten and that Sorgi is a four.

8. I woulda went as high as 10 :)eek: blind, preseason faith) until the injury bug started to gnaw away at my confidence! I just think the offense will be machine-like with their efficiency and the defense will (finally) produce some turnovers to take them to that next level. Health will be KEY...especially now since the young pups who should've received tutelage early in the season will either be just getting back or sitting on IR!
