[quote author=winflop link=topic=16429.msg186494#msg186494 date=1484483509]Because he couldn't beat out Burns for the starting job
Well, not entirely true. He did beat out Burns for the starting job, it just happened midseason.

It seems like we are getting into semantics here. Chryst got in there because Burns wasn't getting the job done. Is that "beating someone out". Depends on how you define it. I tend to think of it more as being based on head to head competition.

Burns won the starting job over Chryst in camp. Chryst only got to be the starter because Burns didn't work out as the starter.
