"The players know," Lombardi said. "When you affect the players' life in terms of them not being able to win because the quarterback is not good enough, you're going to lose the team."

Lombardi cited the current situation in Chicago -- where Matt Nagy benched Mitch Trubisky for Nick Foles despite the Bears starting 2-0 -- as an example of a head coach knowing he would lose his locker room had he not made the switch.

"It was going on in Chicago with Matt Nagy. Why do you think he changed quarterbacks? He was as patient as he could be," Lombardi said. "That's Rivera's problem right now. He's worried about losing his football team."
