We need a better backup. Look at the Vikings and Packers this year. Vikings are still in it because they have a good backup. Packers are out because they do not.

Like who? Give me some names of these cheap vets.

We WOULD be sitting pretty even WITH the Chargers Nate Pickerman debacle if you know who had caught you know what vs the Carolina Camsters. It's not just on the QB. Everyone has to do thier job.

If Coach McDermott didn't know that after the Jets and Saints games, heaven help us. That and we already knew the kid can't handle pressure. Rookie HC mistake We'll never know. Benching your starting QB (that you went 10-5 with in the regular season) in a playoff game was dumber. But Coach MCDermott's decision was close.

We'll be trading up from #32.

They're a game behind us and have to win the next two. That's why I said probably. J E T S Jets Jets Jets!!

Don't quote me on this, but it seems to me that if the Titans lose to Rams and Jaguars and we beat Fish, we're in (probably). Doesn't seem like long odds at all.

Lot of coaches like to sit on a lead.

Why did we go back to him then? And why declare he's the starter when healthy? Not seeing it. Time will tell. Not saying he'll be back, not saying he won't.

I disagree. When Hotrod got his knee boo boo, Coach McDermott declared when healthy he would be the starter. He has a little confidence anyway. Coaches want to win. I have no ideas what's going to happen in the off season. But I do think that Hotrod getting cut is far from certain. I'd be good with Case but not McCown.

Based on everything the team has been through (17 years etc), if we make the playoffs, Hotrod deserves to be presumptive starter next year PERIOD IMHO. A team wins because of it's QB.

Maybe zero for these 2 guys, but many teams do very well with other teams cast offs. Drew Brees won a SB Trent Dilfer won a SB Curt Warner got back to SB Craig Morton went to a SB Fish did the El Perfecto with a cast off (Earl Moral playing most of the year) Cardinals have gone to playoffs several times with Palmer. Broncos went to 2 SBs winning 1 with castoff Manning Raiders went to SB with Rich Gannon 49ers won SB with castoff Steve Young Bucs won SB with Brad Johnson Bills made playoffs twice with castoff Flutie Vikings won division with castoff Case Keenum playing most of year Vikings were a missed FG from going to SB with Randall Cunningham Packers won a SB with castoff Favre Seahawks went to SB with castoff Hasselbeck Washington went to playoffs with Brunell Cheaps got eliminated by Bills with castoff Joe Montana at QB Vikings went to playoffs with castoff Favre Castoffs can be good. We need a better QB. No sense in not even considering a place where many playoff QBs and even some SB winners came from.

Why can't we do both?

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED

If/when Say starts catching footballs consistently I'll give him a break. Just because Jerry Rice struggled the first couple of years has no bearing on if Zay will ever be good. James Hardy struggled the first couple of years too Jerry Rice worked through by practicing A LOT. I hope Zay is doing likewise.

That injury makes me real nervous about Teddy. Of the 3 Vikings soon to be FA QBs I like Case the best.

Smith is a real QB. He's pretty much what tankers want to get with a high pick. In fact, he was the number 1 pick in the draft. And, we already know he's not a bust. Maybe we would have an inside track since Andy was Coach MCDermott's mentor.

The back of that #11 Bills jersey should have the name LUCKY on it. Why does anyone take that number? Once Zay took it, I knew he was going to under perform.

What terrible HTML comprehension you have!!!

In 1/2 a NY hearbeat

Jets Cardinals Washington if they dump cousins Clowns Broncos (Elway loves signing veteran QBs. What does he know we don't?) 49ers if they decide Jimmy is too expensinve Trade Andy back his number 1. Would be a great deal for us. Championship

I doubt this VERY seriously. If Alex gets cut, a bidding war will ensue. There are a lot of QB needy teams out there besides us. I'd offer them the 1 we got from them last year.

I don't like Tommy at all in case you didn't notice. But I'm always in favor of someone saying up yours to THE MAN when he's after something that's none of his GD bidness. Get a warrant.

Mine is up right now! Right across the street from my neighbor and his Seahawks flag. (He thinks Hotrod is good btw).

Right. Sounds like another Rob Johnson trade. Right. Sounds like another Rob Johnson trade. Obviously the smartest man on the planet didn't think he was good enough. I'm far from sold on Jimmy. He's had one good game for whiners so far. Very well could be another Rob Johnson. Maybe if he puts up big numbers and they beat Mr. Big Stuff/ Poz and he rest of the Jaguar D?
