I looked that all up, after forgetting that MM was there during the whole Favre/Rodgers transition.Maybe someone wants to check who MMs backups were during his time in GB.
Did he want a vet behind Rodgers, or was it a developmental type guy? The name Hundley rings a bell, not sure.
Anyway, when you have your guy and he is young, I see little point to having the same behind him. The backup should a be veteran capable of filling in for a few games so the season isn't completely lost if that happens. 1-2 games is huge in this league and you need to have better than Rush back there.
Matt Flynn was Rodgers primary backup, with Brett Hundley and Scott Tolzien later on.
So, one could probably assume that QB2 in Dallas next year will be Cooper Rush.
MM doesn't appear to see a value in having an experienced veteran backup.
