Can say what you want about Nichols but.... There is no doubt that he is 100000 percent better than both Brohm and Marve combined.
He may not be an elite starting QB but as a back-up, I can think of a ton of guys who are much worse than he is.
And BTW, Edmonton didn't win games because of Franklin or Nichols for that matter, They won because of their D.
Even when Reilly got back, he didn't exactly light it up, he did enough to win and with Edmonton's D, really, not much really needed to be done by the O.
Don't turn the ball over really.
