The QB Shuffle of the NFL

Something to me that is a quite disturbing is the fact of the matter that there are three teams that have scrapped their starting quarterback for veteran back-ups. I think that a lot of these teams are thinking this NFL season is a sprint which it is not. They feel these guys give them the best chance to win, lets take a gander at who we got....


Kerry Collins-Tennessee Titans- The former alcoholic and depressed guy who has risen/fallen more times than the stock market. I mean he is probably the best option out of the three guys I will talk about. He still has the talent to be an alright quarterback in the NFL and thats really all he needs to do with the Titans as they have a really good defense. What the Titans are not realizing is they are slowly destroying the ESPN hype machine baby Vince Young. I still believe Leinart will end up having a career in the NFL and Young will not because only Donovan McNabb is the only guy to pull off scrambler quarterback role but he still got hurt throughout the years. Granted, Young is a fuckin mess right now and is the NFL's version of Amy Winehouse but I really believe Coach Jeff Fisher's comments about "Kerry Collins is our quarterback if he keeps winning" is the kiss of death for Vince Young.



Next in the QB Carousel, you have Brian Griese for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, this is the one I am completely lost on why Jon Gruden thinks it is a good idea to scrap Jeff Gracia who won 12 games for your team last year for a guy like Griese who has been a bust for years upon years. Tampa Bay might believe they only need an alright quarterback to get by but they need Gracia, he is a proven winner when given a good enough team. Earnest Graham will hit a sophomore slump and their defense is just about as weathered as the New England Patriots. They will be lucky to get into the playoffs and I will not be shocked to see Gracia back by week 7.


The final one is by far the worst one... Gus Ferotte of the Minnesota Vikings. Are you kiddin' me? I dont mean to make fun of a Vikes fans but wasnt Tarvaris Jackson suppose to be the next Dnabb because Vikings head coach Brad Childress "made McNabb the player he is." Now after two games, where in my opinion, he hasnt been awful because I will go back to what I have been saying; T-Jax just has to be alright because he has Adrian Peterson, you dont need a gunslinger out there. But what has been awful has been Childress playcalling and decision making. Trust me if this team doesnt get to the playoffs, he is gone. No doubt. His hope, a 37 year old QB whose the dumbfuck that rammed his head into the stands walls.



Well the Packers play all three of these teams so hopefully the Pack makes me look like a genius when they destroy them all.
