    Jim Harbaugh is the craziest person in the entire NFL.

    That espn article was dope. I find it ? they spent two weeks trying to create controversy despite all the players coming out and backing him

    Yea I think the players ? with him but folks in the front office don't.

    That's all that really matter though.

    I think Romo will have a big day Sunday. Down to our 3rd slot corner, and he's a rookie. Might get late early for the squad.

    I smell two picks by Romo in first half. Which sets up a close fourth quarter. Usually when romo ? up they just kept throwing the ? .

    but now they still running even when behind by more than ten. And Watt gonna have hell with that O line we got now

    JJ is gonna get his but if Dallas can neutralize the rest of the line they'll be straight. Someone else is gonna have to step up and make plays.

    The 2013 season opener had 9 black QBs as starters.

    As of October 3rd 2014:
    two are still starters (Colin Kaepernick with the 49ers, and Russell Wilson with Seattle)
    two are out the league (Josh Freeman and Terrelle Pryor)
    two are now on the same team (Michael Vick and Geno Smith with the Jets)
    one has been benched in favor of "veteran QB Kyle Orton" (EJ Manuel in Buffalo)
    one is out indefinitely (RG3 in Washington)
    one is currently dealing with multiple injuries (Cam Newton in Carolina)

    SMH.

    Hopefully Teddy Bridgewater is the "future" for the Vikings.

    That's an understatement.

    Ryan Fitzpatrick played 53 games under 2 different regimes (? Jauron and Perry Fewell in 2009, and Chan Gailey from 2010-2012).

    Alex Smith "survived" 3 different coaching regimes (Mike Nolan, Mike Singletary, and Jim Harbaugh), 2 general managers (Scot McCloughan and Trent Baalke), and a change in ownership (Jed York was given control of the team through inheritance from his parents) in San Francisco from 2005-2012.

    It's a host of flat out bums scattered throughout the league as backups (Jimmy Clausen in Chicago, Christian Ponder in Minnesota, Brandon Weeden in Dallas, etc).

    Nope. That sack was on the first drive of the game. After that he was pretty much quiet.

    Freeman was 24-36 as a starter through 60 games (59 in Tampa and one in Minnesota).

    For comparison sake, Matthew Stafford is currently 27-38 as a starter through 65 games in Detroit, and he has played with much more talent on offense.

    Despite starting only 4 games prior to this season, Drew Stanton (current Cardinals starter) is still in the league (and he was a second round pick in 2008 for the Lions).

    This list is worth browsing through:

    Players drafted between 1936 and 2013, played QB, between the 1st and 30th round

    Matt Cassell was drafted despite throwing only 33 passes in college (with 20 completions, no touchdowns, and 1 interception).
    33 pass attempts in 4 years, and he was drafted in the 7th round.
