3 capable qbs in the room is better than 2. True.
Losing a QB with over a seasons worth of starts stinks.
Losing a 24 year old dual threat QB who has shown to be proficient in the run game and deep ball hurts.

But we have two third year QBs behind him.
We have a QB with over a seasons worth of starts.
We have a QB handpicked by our OC to fit into our designed playbook with a skillset similar to Stafford.
We have a QB who has been working with our receivers for 2 years and has been wowing the coaching staff with both his athleticism and arm talent during that time.

Just like losing our 2016 starter in the first game of 2017, we are prepared to weather this.

Newman was when we were thinking rpo and zone read.

Monken's o is air road and I would guess we will see packages of under center power /play action as well.
