There is no more crystal clear case study on how important a backup quarterback is to a professional football team than the 2020 Dallas Cowboys. Today’s NFL is a quarterback’s game, and if you are not properly equipped at the all-defining position, you are going to have a hard time competing week in and week out. While the starter is obviously of critical importance, who the team employs as their primary backup is also something that should be taken very seriously.
The 2020 Dallas Cowboys actually did equip themselves rather responsibly when it came to their top clipboard holder.
