UPDATE: Potential QB Controversy

shareonfb.com



As always, it’s important to note the teams that don’t have a solid starter at QB. These teams are always the ones to follow throughout camp, since there is constant turn of events and media frenzy surrounding them.  A wise old man once said, if you have two or three quarterbacks, then you don’t have one. I think the following teams may have the potential to cause a stir at the QB position this camp:


New York Jets
Ryan Fitzpatrick, Geno Smith, Chris Hackenberg

The Jets and Fitzpatrick have yet to agree to terms on a contract.  This leaves Geno at the starting spot since Hackenberg is an after thought.  Fitzpatrick is clearly the better performer but the Jets need to settle with Fitz sooner rather than later, or this season may not be a bright as last year’s.  

Fitz and the Jets Organization agreed to a 1 year/12 million dollar deal. Sorry Geno!


San Francisco 49ERS
Colin Kaepernick, Blaine Gabbert, Jeff Driskel

This here may be the best to watch.  Kaepernick has been stinking up the place since the 2013 NFC Championship but will Kelly give him a shot at the starting position?  We will have to wait until one of the most erratic coaches in the league pull out his bag of tricks.

Who Knows! But in other news, the Rams released Nick Foles. I wonder if that has kelly sniffing around.

Philadelphia Eagles
Sam Bradford, Carson Wentz, Chase Daniel

With Bradford’s buddy off to the bay area, new Eagles Head Coach, Doug Pederson is making Bradford prove himself worthy of a starting position.  Bradford seems annoyed by Pederson but he has a solid chance at winning the starting job over Daniels and Wentz.

Sam Bradford seems to be ahead in this race.


Denver Broncos
Marc Sanchez, Paxton Lynch

Since the Broncos let Osweiler ride off on his white horse to never return, they are stuck with the hopes that Marc Sancez will do better than he’s done since the infamous “butt fumble,” but according to 9news.com, Lynch is not going down without a fight.  He quotes, “As a competitor you’re not just going to say i’ll take the back seat to this.”

Cleveland Browns
Robert Grffin III, Cody Kessler


There’s not much to say here.  Given the injury mishaps and coaching feuds that left RG3 undesired in DC, I can only hope to see this talented QB win the starting spot over third round draft pick Cody Kessler.  It’s not because I like him, it’s because he’s better.

There has been talks that the Browns will pick their starter before the first preseason game. Article here


This week kicks off the majority of the team’s training camp, although a few sedulous teams began last week. Here's the schedule
