How to Solve a QB Controversy?

The Jaguars over the past few seasons have constantly struggle to figure out who their starting quarterback was. They had the one quarterback in Leftwich with the massive arm but feet that work like they were stuck in concrete and the mobile but much less accurate David Garrard. Every year they would start the season off with Leftwich as the starter and then eventually he would get injured and they would fill in for the time being with Garrard. The Jaguars would then win a few games in a row, people would clammer that he was the better fit and that the Jaguars needed his mobility and ability to "make" plays happen. And then they start the whole process over the next season. So what would be is the best solution for the Jaguars? How about merging the two quarterbacks into a single entity?


Ya that's right folks the Jaguars brass have told both of their quarterbacks that they might be interested in Culpepper. Interesting move. The acquisition of Culpepper would give the Jaguars a quarterback who potentially would combine both the arm strength and accuracy of Leftwich with the mobility of Garrard. The problem, he also has the injury history of Leftwich and the proneness to the turnover of Garrard. So basically, what the hell would be the point. How about you just pick a quarterback and go with him, as novel of a concept as it may be, how about if Leftwich gets hurt one more time you bench him completely and just get rid of him. He may be a tough kid, and plays through a lot of pain, but there's something to be said for someone that is always injured. It can't all be bad luck.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
