Two playoff teams from last season, the Vikes and the Cards are in a quandary over the quarterback position. They both need to fill the void, and fill it very quickly.
Should Childress turn to Jackson or Rosenfels to fill the void or, should he just wait around for off and on again Favre?
The least the Vikes should do is give one of them a chance to compete for the starting job. It would put one of them at ease going into next season.
On the other hand, the Cards made their decision by resting their laurel on Leinart. Leinart knows that the starting quarterback job is his to win or lose. Keep in mind when the Heisman winner was drafted, they had high hopes for the team with him at the QB position.
It did not fare well for him. Now he can be the second coming at the position and be the savior for the team. I don’t think so, but he is all the Cards have at this time unless they make a run at McNabb who will make a better fit with the Vikes.
Several other teams are faced with quarterback needs. The Bills, Redskins, Rams and Browns, the latter not as much because they have Anderson who has proven himself from time to time at the position.
If I am the general manager of any of these teams, I would stand pat, use the draft and groom my long term quarterback. I MAKE THE CALL.
