Indeed. These guys have the misguided impression that they are irreplaceable (well, and I suppose the ego goes with the confidence you need) when in fact there are only a handful of players in the league, virtually all of them QBs, that are in fact not replaceable. Not sure if anyone else beside the Patriots has figured that out...
