they have to. DA is concussed and Hall is done for the year. We need at least one backup to Skelton for the next 4 games.

Hope he never has to see the field. Has a very awkward throwing motion with a very long wind up and slow release. He does have a very strong arm though and can be fairly accurate, but he just doesn't read defenses that well.

I've heard that Coach thinks that he can give a spark to the offense, and that he has a lot of leadership and moxie.

I heard a rumor that Tim Hasselback laughed in Whis's face.

For whatever reason, Whis contacted him on Skype. That's how he did it.

I want to see Somers ask this question and repeat it until Whisenhunt answers it:

"Did you consider what might happen when you cut our projected #1 QB the week before the season began?"

Why is it OK to nail DA to the wall, but its not acceptable to ask the coach any of the tough questions?

Oddly enough, Cleveland signed Bartel in 2008 after DA was benched and his rookie backup (Quinn) went down. Maybe Whis is trying to recreate the 2008 Browns.

Wasn't Bartel the star QB in the Keanu Reeves movie The Replacements? Believe he won a couple championships!

Let me get this straight, the best we can do is Culpepper's back-up QB from the stinking UFL? Huh?

I just assumed he was a starter since I never watch the UFL (can you watch it?). Then I looked up on the UFL website....Josh McCown is the best QB in that league as sad as that is.

Wow who made you an expert on qb talent? How do you know he doesn't read defenses well? I really want to know? He is better than what you had. I would give him a chance. He beat you in Washington. Kurt Warner came out of no where.

Didn't he beat a bunch of guys who were either cut or on the practice squad? Not that I have any doubt that he'd light up the Cardinals secondary...thats our history, make back ups look like world beaters.

Not related to him nor do I know him. I just know football. I just moved to the area and this team needs all the help they can get! Whats up with the insults on a person that joins your team to hopefully help in the
W column? Time will tell and I will be back after he helps the team just to serve up a little crow to all you haters!!!

I aint dissin nobody, you came in pretty pro-Bartel. I hope he is better than what we have, but even that wouldn't mean much. Welcome to the desert.:)
