Some can pick up the slack and not miss a beat or like in Brady's case make the team even better in 2002.
Truth is to no surprise back ups are back ups for good reason. They are not your #1 choice on 99% of most teams.

Mix in soft D and horrible a PK and you have a recipe for more goals against and more losses than wins.
The difference is, when a football team loses their league-leading passing quarterback, they don't keep the same gameplan with the second or third string who can't throw the ball downfield to save his life.

They change the scheme, run the ball, shorten the passes and try to lock the potential for turnovers down.
