I just wonder if the standard of expecting one player to carry an entire team is too high for any player in the NFL. Elway couldn't do it by himself. When his team was most successful he had Davis, Sharpe, McCaffery and so on. Montana always had Rice. Favre has done some amazing things, but he alway had others there too.

As I recall from last year the majority of the problem was the kicking game that kept us out of the playoffs not Grbac (not saying anyone did perfect here).

Grbac has had some real crappy luck in his career. I can't really decide what I think of him overall, but booing the guy when he is announced before the home opener seems a bit extreme to me.

As for the other quarterbacks, who knows. Kurt Warner was a "no name" just over a year ago. Back up quarterbacks get a minutes notice to make or break themselves. It is quite argueably the toughest position in the game.
