I Want My Quarter Back!

Just watching Monday Night Football and appreciating two good quarterbacks, Matt Ryan of the Atlanta Falcons and Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints. Ryan is young, yes... but coming on strong. Brees, well, we know what he can do. Regardless, two fine signal callers for sure. But too often we watch the NFL and we can't find this situation. Sometimes we can't even find a good one on just one side. How does this happen? How can the league not have 32 good starting QB's? We have Brady, two Mannings, Brees, Ryan, Romo, Favre, Rivers, Roethlisberger and we'll go ahead and include young guys like Sanchez, Orton and Flacco who look like they will progress. And, yes, surely we overlooked a few. But who is running the other half of the teams? Why are we still burdened with watching David Garrard, Rex Grossman, Byron Leftwich and others? That's just naming a few. Can you name the starting QB's for 16 NFL team as of this month? Try it and then look at the active quarterback list at nfl.com and see what you missed. Or, watch most NFL games and see what all fans are missing.
