Literally all 3 Super Bowls wouldn't have happened without the backup. Henne made huge drives both this year and in 2020 in the playoffs. And if Matt Moore doesn't beat a good Vikings team in 2019 we don't get a bye and have to go to New England and then maybe Baltimore. Now they could develop a young guy to that level, but whoever the backup is they need to be sure about him because it could tank a championship team if the backup QB isn't ready.

Henne and Moore were both clutch as nails, don’t get me wrong, but it’s time to put the timeless cliche, “trust the process” to the test.
We’ve done exactly that for just about every position at least once under Andy except for QB. Alex had Chase and even Foles.
Invest a little bit of draft capital at QB, coach them up, and trust that your scouting/coaching did its job
