At some point, you need more than 1 good WR on an offense in order to see how good a quarterback is.

This is my point. One year in a new system with no real upgrades in the offensive talent around him is a pretty short commitment. Especially when you gave up on the talent and potential at the QB position in the draft last year. Maybe he was terrible in practice or just unable to pick up on the changes that Kubiak wanted. I don't know. But after givng him an big bonus last year and giving up on the chances to get Bush, Young, Leinart, Cutler etc. in the draft, I think you have to give him one more shot. Upgrade the talent on the offfensive side of the ball this offseason and evaluate him then. If after that, he still has not shown you anything, then you look for a different QB.
