No, what I mean is, if we decide the big bang is wrong, and redshifts are not a measure of expansion, but are instead caused by something other than recession, that would have sweeping effects on many astrophysical observations. I don't see how the big bang could be false, but all other astrophysical theories would remain essentially unchanged. That doesn't mean that big bang theories must be true, but changing it would have fairly sweeping effects.
