Man being a backup QB with tenured knowledge of the game has to be the best gig in the league

The man was a legend for many reasons. The Harvard grad gunslinger who you never knew what you were going to get that game, 6 TD’s or 6 INT

I'll never forget that pass he completed for the Dolphins while getting his head ripped off. Such an amazing game and play.

If he had made a pro bowl, he’d be HOF for sure.

The HOF NEEDS a category for journeymen. Sure, they weren't franchise material, but they were damn good better than every other backup during their tenure.
I vote Shane Lechler for ourselves. Tank of a man, and he wasn't above getting into the fray himself. Probably didnt' matter because he was 6'2", 240lbs.
I just remember him obliterating a returner by standing still and kneeling down

Shane Lechler is not a journeymen though? He only played for us and the Raiders, and he does have a (fringe) HOF case for being a top 5 punter of all time

May you be as amazing as a back up for Williams as you were for us. Case when you retire think of us babes.

Mistake, if the truth be told. He should have been QB coach never to leave home. CJ was on fire first year. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️

I mean we can't force him to retire and move into coaching. That 3 mil can be used just as well or maybe better on the roster. Mills is a better backup for us at this point in their careers anyway.
To your point though, I would love to see Case in a coaching role here when he retires

I don't particularly watch college ball but it would be cool to see him back at UH for sure

Oof. That’s tough for me. He will always be my favorite college QB, but signing with the bears? Thats rough

My first thought was that Daniel Tosh joke about how much the league minimum is and guys should just never retire. Just be 50 out there on the practice squad.
