Steve Beuerlein came tantalizingly close to stealing the starting job from Troy Aikman during the 1991 season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After the future Hall of Famer, still early in his career, went down with a knee injury in Week 13, the 26-year-old backup got a chance to take the reins. He won each of his four starts to close out the regular season, going 58-of-120 for 774 yards, four touchdowns, and two interceptions before receiving a controversial playoff start over Aikman, whose knee had recovered enough that he could play, and submitting a mistake-free game against the Chicago Bears to get a fifth W. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, he was benched in a blowout loss to the Detroit Lions the following week and subsequently found himself on the bench for every game of the 1992 campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 9.

Once the Cleveland Browns released Bernie Kosar in favor of Vinny Testaverde, the Dallas Cowboys inked him to a one-year contract so he could serve as a backup to Jason Garrett. It didn't take long for the 30-year-old to see the field as Garrett, stepping into the lineup for an injured Troy Aikman, struggled to make the most of his snaps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n He went 13-of-21 in relief of Garrett during a 20-15 victory over the Phoenix Cardinals, tossing 199 yards and a score. Then he got a start against the Atlanta Falcons one week later and threw for 186 yards and two touchdowns, albeit in a loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 8.

Jason Garrett spent seven of his eight NFL seasons with the Cowboys, though he made just nine starts over that stretch, rarely playing football that deviated from a league-average level by too large an extent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That said, he did start five games during the 1998 campaign and put together the best outing of his career against the Carolina Panthers that year, going 14-of-22 for 287 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions in the 27-20 victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n |
