There are plenty of game managers in the NFL. Frerotte isnt one? His team is in the playoffs and he isnt asked to make many plays. He is the definition of game manager.
I say he is in the bottom third of the league. I will go through twenty that are better:
Would you take him over Phillip Rivers? No.
Jay Cutler? No.
Donovan Mcnabb? No.
Tony Romo? No.
Eli Manning? No.
Peyton Manning? No.
Ben Roethlisberger? No.
Jake Delhomme? No.
Matt Schaub? No.
Matt Ryan? No.
Aaron Rodgers? No.
Carson Palmer? No.
Chad Pennington? No.
Marc Bulger? No.
Tom Brady? No.
Matt Hasselbeck? No.
Drew Brees? No.
Kurt Warner? No.
Those guys are all better and i dont think there is much to debate. These guys are right there and i think are better although its debatable:
Trent edwards
David Garrard
Joe Flacco
Shaun Hill
Kerry Collins
That leaves him at the bottom third...at best.
You give all those guys moss, welker and that line and system and you tell me what they would do.

Warner is 37, not much of a future with him, Palmer has serious elbow issues, Brady has the knee injury that may be worse than we know, He can be as good as Pennington with experience, ditto Delhomme, is better than Bulger at this point, is as good as Schaub.
What is your deal with Hill? Why do you think he is any good?
