What did I say that was incorrect. In order for this conversation to move forward, you need to point out the errors in what I said but frankly, there aren't any. All I do is provide facts which is all I've done here so please list where I'm in error and we'll continue.

I guess I look at more than records...this team is clearly more limited without Palmer than it is without Fitz.

However, as I pointed out, the record proves otherwise. I mean, last I looked wins are what counts. I'm not disagreeing with you that Palmer is a better option than Stanton but we've still been able to win without Palmer but in Fitz's first game out, we lost and were missing him badly.

You said they're 4-2 without Palmer. That's incorrect. They're 3-2.

Nope. 4-2. The Cards were losing when Palmer got hurt. Stanton came in, threw the TD pass to Brown which put the Cards in front and the rest is history. So, the games with Stanton:

@ Giants-W
vs SF-W
@ Denver-L
vs STL-W
vs DET-W
@ SEA-L

4-2.

Which would still be our record if Fitz would've played.

Not saying we win the game but we would have been in a better position to win. Fitz, if nothing else, draws coverage. Double coverage at times. This frees someone else up namely Floyd who drew the coverage Sunday. Not to mention with Fitz's Spiderman hands he can make a bad pass catchable.

Vince Young had a winning NFL record...records prove very little. If you can't see that, there isn't much in regards to football we can talk about. A WR is a part of an offense while a QB is a key to the offense.

Yep

Generally & over the long haul, the biggest & most important position on a football team that leads to consistent winning is the performance of the QB. I'm not sure the Pats would even be average without Brady, which is a perfect example.
