Tebow also had much better talent and coaching suited for his read option style of play in Denver. Maybe he can do it against the Jacksonvilles of the league, but the Jets don't really have the personnel to do that. And I also get the feeling that Tebow's playstyle is the kind of thing defenses learn and tear apart, leaving it with the same kind of effectiveness as the Wildcat (as in, none). And really, that's what makes Robert Griffin III so dangerous. He plays in that read option, and eventually he won't be able to do that much anymore because he'll get beaten down. But he still has a killer arm in both terms of strength and accuracy. He'll be able to become a typical NFL quarterback with ease once his body is unable to do that crazy run game. Exactly. We talk about how bad the Patriots defense was last year. And Tebow did nothing against them twice. |

Terrell Suggs (torn biceps) says he's a game-time decision for Sunday, and that shutting himself down for the season is "not an option."

Tebow was only the fourth quarter king if they weren't playing against a playoff contender. He had an awful record against them last year, and while he played well against the Steelers in the playoffs, we have to be realistic and recognize that this was not the typical Steelers team. I have a hard time crowning the guy as a proven winner when it's based on 4th quarter heroics to beat awful teams.
McElroy was fun, but it was 1 throw in 1 game. Remember, Matt Cassell led the Patriots to the playoffs once upon a time.
Sanchez may not be very good, but he's the guy they're paying.

Terrell Suggs (torn biceps) says he's a game-time decision for Sunday, and that shutting himself down for the season is "not an option." Ray Lewis tore his triceps less than two months ago and is scheduled to return to play in a week. Terrell Suggs tore his Achilles tendon and returned less than four months later. I don't know what they put in the water down in Baltimore (Actually, I do, and it rhymes with "schmerformance-schmenhancers") but I can't imagine a torn biceps will keep Suggs out more than a week or two. |

McElroy should be the starter, not because of seven throws and one TD that I could've thrown, but just because Sanchez has been godawful in all but three games this year.
And with the way the NFL is with drug testing, I seriously doubt there's anything in Baltimore going in besides incredibly rushed rehab and reckless decisions by veteran players.

And with the way the NFL is with drug testing, I seriously doubt there's anything in Baltimore going in besides incredibly rushed rehab and reckless decisions by veteran players. Pretty much, and even if the Ravens were using tons of performance enhancers does anyone seriously think that they'd be the only team doing so. Just because only a handful of people get caught a year doesn't mean that it's a minor problem. I'd guess that since it doesn't show up in tests a lot of HGH is being used all around the league and is not limited to any one team. To think otherwise is silly. |

I have a tough choose for my QB start. I have Luck and Rogers. Now, I have always started Rogers for advise reasons outside the bye week. Last week Luck out scored Rogers. Which as happened before but it's hard to go against Rogers. But the issue with me wanting too start Luck is Rogers targets are so bagged up. As I'm in a must win situation. I need all the points I get as I'm in must win situation to make the playoff in my league. What really killed me all year is WR. Being that I got stuck with the whole Larry Friz, and the we don't know who our QB by the week in AZ. Plus Harvin going down make it worst. As Harvin was my guy for most of my season at WR. I've been basicly serving because of Peterson who I took the gamble on at Draft time he was my second pick (First round of my keeper who was Rogers)and it paid off. I'd start Luck, for sure. |

I'm about at 85% on my decision in regards to my starting QB. I'm leaning towards starting Freeman against the Eagles over RGIII against the Ravens. That match-up worries me.
