Or his steady decline each year after that Super Bowl, and his final numbers in 2015 & 2016.right. but the team was crap. gabbert couldn't win with that team either. ask matthew stafford of being on a quality team makes any difference. he spent a dozen years with the lions and magically equals or sets career highs in completion percentage and TD passes his first year with the rams.

Remember a BAD Bronco's team offered him the backup job...... at half his prior year's salary.

and he turned it down.when you trade your current job in for a new job @ a 50% pay cut, then i'll take you seriously. if kap had toby keith's politics you'd hold a different view of his talent.
but i don't know how the layoff would affect his ability to play today. i don't know if the game has sped up since he played. or whether defenses are enough onto the disruptive style of play during his super bowl season.
while kap is a very different player, different skills, different style than jared goff, as a ram's fan i never understood the ram's embrace of that guy, because he seemed to me only to perform well if he had enough time in the pocket. he was the least improvisational player in the league. he was the anti-mahomes. i fear that kap kind of has that, as regards his passing ability. i don't see him as an improvisational passer. he can't create something out of nothing, but josh allen can, mahomes can, kyler murray can. that's always been my question about kap, and that question would've been answered if his sin had been, say, beating his girlfriend, or 5 DUIs.
