Either way you describe Marc Bulger, good or great, Gus Frerotte does not have the ability to supplant him as a starter.

I agree that Bulger is a great QB. But on the flipside the Pro Bowl and Pro Bowl MVP don't count as much of anything towards what makes Bulger great. The Pro Bowl is a glorified popularity contest, and the game itself (no blitzing etc) doesn't resemble a real game.
I'm not saying it's bad that he won the MVP, I'm saying that with what Bulger has shown, he is great with or without a Pro Bowl MVP in my mind. The MVP doesn't add anything that makes him great.
The only way we see Frerotte is if we are up by 30 late in the 3rd or in the 4th quarter, or if Bulger gets hurt.
