Backup QB has been, in my mind, a question mark almost every season this decade. Flutie? Davey? Testaverde at 40? I have faith in the Pats decision to go with whomever they deem an acceptable backup QB, but it sure is nicer knowing they are a proven commodity.
I'm in the Minority here probably, but I don't think Cassel should be around next year. No matter what Brady's status is (other than him having to take the entire year off - which I don't see happening - that would be a 14-16 month recovery).
I think that we need to get as much as we can for Cassel (First and then another pick or player) and start Brady or option B if he is not avaiable unil later in the season (i.e. PUP). I have no idea what Option B is, but it's not Cassel.
However, I will agree that if Tom is out for all of 2009 - Then Cassel is our man.
