11 QB's under the gun in '12
According to Fox Sports. No story, just a link to a slide show with a paragraph about each.
Yes Castle is one of them. Discuss. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/lists/q...photo=31277114 |

I mean, ****, Cassel's entire offense has been built around throwing to tight ends and running backs this offseason. |

Some people just wont get it. We need a QB in the worst way. Doesn't change the fact that Cassel is the best we have. Quinn is not better and neither is Stanzi. Stanzi MAY develop into something down the line but he is clearly the 3rd best QB on the roster, as of today, and no one is going to throw away a season because a 3rd string QB MAY develop into something years from now.

Look, I get that Stanzi is a much bigger longshot than Tannehill. But the idea that a raw QB shouldn't beat out an experienced QB because he's not as good today makes it impossible for an average veteran QB to ever lose his job. The question is whether Quinn or Stanzi with reps and meaningful snaps can play as well as Cassel by mid-season, if not better. I think there is tremendous potential to do that. |

Last year's preseason (just watch the Bucs and Ravens game to see how he extended plays and sacrificed his body to make time for throws) and his college career say differently. I'm not judging Steve Breaston's future as a WR on this year's preseason games because his past says different. Same goes for Ricky. The Rams game was SOME problem- either he was unfamiliar with the playbook, rattled from the pressure of the moment, or hell... maybe he wasn't in the game 100% mentally. I don't know WTF it was, but that wasn't the Ricky Stanzi I saw last year or at Iowa. That being said, it must never happen again, or else it will be believed that that's the QB he really is. |

Osweiler is going to be in Denver a lot longer than Peyton Manning. Why is he not starting? He's raw and was drafted in the 2nd. |

Dude was fine in his first game. In the second game he "crumbled" when a guy SLAMMED HIM IN THE HELMET right after he completed his drop. Just about every QB in the league does that. The worst thing Stanzi has done this preseason is hold the ball too long once. He hasn't been good enough to take anyone's job, but saying he's been a disaster is not accurate.

And again, your argument is completely predicated around the idea that veterans with experience who play mediocrely should be favored over young guys who play mediocre today but could play very well with experience. |

I'll laugh pretty hard if the coaching staff blindsides everyone and chooses Stanzi as the #2 QB.

At some point, the coaches' job is to get this team ready to win in the regular season. They can't spend the entire camp evaluating guys in some kind of futile hope that they can pull a rabbit out of the hat. If there's not a Super Bowl caliber on the roster, that's not the coaches' fault. That's Pioli's fault. They've got PLENTY of familiarity with Quinn, that's why they brought him here in the 1st place. And it's also why he's currently a backup and not a starter. |

Which again goes to the idea... did Quinn never earn the right to first team reps? Or did Pioli make it very clear that that was never going to happen. It seems to me there is plenty of pressure from the top to say that it would have taken an act of god to remove Cassel from starting in game 1 this season. |
