He's a backup. That's where he belongs, but today he played as well as you'd expect any good starter to play, which backups will do from time to time. Especially when they face poor defenses. It's okay to say it.
I agree with that. In fact he played better than any Rams #2
caliber qb I can think of, since I don't know when.
But the game's not supposed to come down to him. You start a Keenum because you think you can win with him if you play defense.
He mostly fulfilled his side of that bargain today. If the defense had fulfilled its side, it would never have come down to a final play at the bottom of the 4th. You're supposed to win with this defense if you score 28.
And even with Tru and Quinn out, if they just avoided penalties, this defense still could have won that game.
