Pete Carroll has said it will be a true competition for starting quarterback between incumbent Tarvaris Jackson, free agent acquisition Matt Flynn, and 3rd round rookie Russell Wilson.

Continue reading →: Bears worried about Matt Forte’s knees
Matt Forte was franchised by the Chicago Bears earlier this offseason and he has not been happy about it. Forte is refusing to sign the 7.7 million dollar tender as he’s looking for a deal worth 8.5 million or so per year over 4-5 years with about half guaranteed: a…

QB Sam Bradford (St. Louis) 8/27/12: I was a little bit lower on Bradford than I should have been. He’s only a QB2, but I’m moving him up slightly. Tough to get behind Bradford as anything more than a QB2 because of his lack of offensive supporting cast. He could…

QB John Skelton (Arizona) 8/20/12: The Cardinals have not named a starting quarterback yet, but Skelton will start and play into the 3rd quarter this week, which means he’ll get all the 1st team reps in the most important Preseason game of the year. Barring a meltdown, he’ll be the…

QB Russell Wilson (Seattle) 8/27/12: Wilson has some intrigue as QB2 with upside because of his rushing ability.

QB Cam Newton (Carolina) 7/26/12: One of the things I realized while writing my season preview for the Panthers is that a predictable decrease in rushing touchdowns for Newton would led to not only Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams rushing for more touchdowns, but also Newton throwing for more touchdowns, even…

QB Matt Ryan (Atlanta) 8/27/12: I was worried about how Matt Ryan would do in the Falcons’ new offense because it didn’t seem to fit his skill set. I don’t like to overreact to the preseason, but Ryan has completed 45 of 60 (75.0%) for 549 yards (9.2 YPA), 3…

QB Josh Freeman (Tampa Bay) Josh Freeman was pretty bad in 2011, throwing 22 interceptions to 16 touchdowns and only 3592 yards. However, he’s not even 2 years removed from throwing for 25 touchdowns and 6 interceptions in 2010, with 3451 yards passing. He also has a new #1 wide…
