Part of what makes quarterbacks cool is that they take the hits, they’re under pressure, they still perform. QBs have to know the play, know the coverage, set protections, and get an accurate pass off in 3 seconds or less, otherwise they get pounded by a 300lbs defensive tackle

Yeah, sometimes the backup has to play. Not every NFL game is going to be a shootout, sometimes your backup comes in and helps the team grind out an important 13-10 win, while the defense shuts down the opposing offense when the team needs it the most
