Week 2 NFL Quarterback Rankings
My first installment was such an, um, hit, that I decided, what the heck, let’s make this is a weekly staple.
Everyone loves quarterbacks. Sports geeks love rankings. I love criticism. It’s the perfect marriage.
Lots of changes this week as, in case you missed it, a fella named Tom Brady suffered a season-ending knee injury in the first quarter of the first game. Let’s see just how genius Patriots’ coach Bill Belichick is with Matt Cassel running the show.
Tennessee’s Vince Young, after being booed off the field, that is, might be out 2-4 weeks with a sprained knee and Tampa Bay’s Jeff Garcia and Kansas City’s Brodie Croyle are also iffy with injuries.
With Peyton Manning looking uncharacteristically rusty coming off his preseason knee surgery, I see no reason not to push the Cowboys’ Tony Romo to the head of the class in light of his 320-yard debut in Cleveland. And, just to make it juicy – Dallas hosts the Eagles Monday night -- let’s move Philly’s Donovan McNabb and his 361-yard performance just into Tony's blind spot.
No doubt you’ll find other reasons to disagree with me – perhaps 32 of them – after the jump.
