Not if they signed Aaron Brooks to replace him.

He led teams to the playoffs and would be considered one of the best backups in the league (according to people who are paid to analyze the NFL).

They should be fired.

Honestly, if you are paid to evaluate them and you come to this conclusion, what good are you to your organization?

Anyway, needless to say, I think you just pulled this out of your ass. Aaron Brooks' rep around the league is not good.

Yeah, a turnover machine that the Raiders didn't even want and that doesn't know a page of our playbook would be a better backup than a guy who has started in our system and has played with the guys on the offense for a bunch of years.

By the way, what's up with the Jaguars signing Tim Couch? What's that all about?

Maybe they are extremely desperate.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

There are college lines better than the Raiders' from last year.

I would consider Brooks' seasons at New Orleans, not the Raiders. When an organization is that dysfunctional you ignore anything that happened there.

He stank in NO too, except for one decent year.

Not because Brunell was let go, the reason people would start crying is because we have no experienced backup capable of really leading the team that we know of right now, yes people would start crying if Campbell get's hurt, but most would shoot themselves if either Brunell or Collins see the field again.

The most important characteristic in a backup quarterback is their ability to step in seamlessly and still execute the offense. Typically the 2nd stringer comes in, and the rest of the offense is wary of him. Do you think our offense would be wary of Mark under center. You're crazy if you do. That being said, no one wants their 2nd stringer to see multiple games. So lets hope JC stays standing.

This thread sucks, because anyone that actually thought for a second we were going to make this move is delusional.

Offiss, how do you suggest we get a QB better than Mark Brunell this offseason and how much would you pay to compensate him?

Better QBs than Brunell are out there, but unless you want to go the Culpepper route, they are going to cost a lot more than we are paying Campbell.
