A closer look at... The Best Quarterback
2008-08-15 05:05:00 The Best of Everything does have a rarely-used Sports Category; it's rarely-used because most of what I think about Sports ends up on Nonsportsmanlike Conduct!, the AlwaysMostlyRight sports blog for people who love sports but hate sports blogs.But some sports end up here, and one of those was the nomination I put up when Brett Favre retired back in March, picking Brett Favre as The Best Quarterback Ever. At the time, that was more or less the general feeling among everyone: Brett is great, we love him, so long Brett. Now, since he's come out of retirement, everyone's getting on him -- including "Tuesday Morning Quarterback," a writer I usually admire but who in this case piled a bunch of slander on Brett without citing any evidence to back it up. Even The Boy is upset with Brett for wanting to come back.Why? If I were to be the greatest [something] ever -- and I am, I just don't trumpet it -- I wouldn't want to quit doing it; I also wouldn't expect that people would be ma...

Broncos Quarterback Camp Day 7 - Darrent Williams Teen Center Opens
2008-05-30 15:15:00 Today will mark the final day of the Broncos Quarterback Camp. There won't be much time off, however, as the team gets right back to work next week. AS a reminder, here are the important dates remaining for the Broncos this "Re-Loading Season" -- Team camp: June 2-6; June 9-13 (tentative). * Minicamp: July 7-8. * Training camp: Players report July 24. Much of the news yesterday happened off the field as the Darrent Williams Teen Center was officially opened during a ceremony that was attended by Broncos Owner Pat Bowlen, Head Coach Mike Shanahan, Rosalind Williams, Darrent's mother and 30-40 Broncos players. PHOTO COURTESY It was a moving day, complete with 27 Orange and Blue colored balloons being released into the bright-blue Denver sky and speeches from dignitaries and Broncos staff alike. I could grab all the quotes, talk about all that was said, but feel it would do the whole thing a disservice. There are two quotes I feel deserve mention, one from Darren...

Denver Broncos Quarterback Camp Day 6 - News and Notes
2008-05-29 13:22:00 Some much to say, so little space! Actually, I have all the space I want, and it's a good thing. Yesterday seemed to be a busy day for guys getting injured(Dre Bly), guys feeling better(Jay Cutler) and guys that are simply off their rocker(Todd Sauerbrun). We'll start with the Quarterback. Jay Cutler says he is completely back to normal, or at least what normal is now. The weight is back to normal, the conditioning is back to normal, and cutler is ready to go -- I feel fine, I feel like I did last year at camp. I've gotten everything back, I can definitely feel a difference from March. I've got all of my zip. I can make all the deep throws. It definitely feels good to do that again. Culter's teammates are also glad to see the 'old Jay' back -- Brandon Stokely - It's almost like night and day between right now and the end of last year. Patrick Ramsey - He's not a different person. Jay's Jay, but at the same time, he's easier to be around - and I don'...

Denver Broncos Quarterback Camp Day 5 - News and Notes
2008-05-28 13:52:00 I hope you all had a great Holiday weekend. I know I did and I once again thank those of you that kept the site rolling along. The Broncos also enjoyed the weekend before getting back to it yesterday. Let's take a look at was was seen and heard on Day 5. Travis Henry has been officially put on notice. The Broncos reached a tentative agreement with Free Agent RB Michael Pittman, which should become official today after the 32 year-old passes a physical. You can read more about it HERE and HERE. We'll get to Henry in one second. As for Pittman, his agent, Drew Rosenhaus for those keeping score at home, thinks he can get some things done for the Broncos - There's a lot of ways Michael can help the Broncos, he can play fullback, halfback, he can catch the ball out of the backfield, return punts and return kicks. He's a versatile back. Pittman, whose arms dwarf most mens' thighs in terms of pure girth, feels healthy and ready to go -- I know I can play. I've ...

Denver Broncos Quarterback Camp Week 1 Round Up
2008-05-23 14:56:00 The first of two weeks in this year's Quarterback Camp are complete and while there isn't much to be learned from a bunch of guys in shorts and a t-shirt it sure was nice to be talking about football again. There is some news to speak of. Tony Scheffler had his foot examined and the news turned out to be better than expected. The soreness in his foot is nothing but that, but the Coach will still tread lightly this early in workouts.We know there's not another break in there. You can see that on the X-rays. But there's something in there that keeps him quite sore, and, hopefully, with a couple weeks in the boot, he'll come back full speed and we don't aggravate the injury. Nate Jackson, Scheffler's back-up, knows all too well how frustrated Scheff is with the chronic pain. "He feels like, 'What am I doing wrong for this to happen?' It's the same time as last year, the same play. But I feel for him. He's a friend of mine, and I don't like to see him dealing with th...

Denver Broncos Quarterback Camp Day 3 - News and Notes
2008-05-22 14:18:00 3 days are in the books and the Broncos suffered their first significant injury, though it has lingered for a year now. Let's take a look at what(and who) went down yesterday -- Tony Scheffler will miss the next month of action due to recurring problems with his broken foot. It was during Quarterback Camp in 2007 that Scheffler initially broke the bone in his foot and played through pain all of last season. There is concern that Scheff may have actually re-fractured the foot, though the Broncos are taking a wait-and-see approach. With Scheffler out of the lineup, old friend Nate Jackson will be counted on to take his place. With Daniel Graham proving last season that his strength is blocking, not running routes, the Broncos need a down-field threat from the Tight End position. Jackson signed a 1-year/$605,000 contract in March with a $425,000 signing bonus. I have always felt an injury to one's foot, especially if you are a running back or tight end, can be extre...

Denver Broncos Quarterback Camp Day 2 - News and Notes
2008-05-21 13:40:00 Day 2 of Quarterback Camp didn't have the storylines of Day 1 , but that doesn't mean there's nothing to report. Let's take a look around to see what was seen and heard -- A big disappointment in 2007 was the defense. Jarvis Moss was disappointed as well. Not being on the field has left the Broncos' First Round pick in 2007 with something to prove -- I feel it, I've got a little chip on my shoulder. Being out, I'm ready to go play football. I'd be ready if it started tomorrow. Of course, there have been alot of additions to the defense, something Moss sees as a benefit - That's what makes the team good, the competition among each other, when training camp hits, competition will definitely pick up. That's exactly what we need, guys fighting for position and getting better every single day. The Head Coach surely sees a difference in Moss -- His conditioning is looking better, for him to come back his second year should be a positive. Usually those linemen l...

Denver Broncos Quarterback Camp - Day 1 News and Notes
2008-05-20 14:46:00 The Quest has officially begun. The players were on the field, except Travis Henry of course, and the work of turning around two seasons of simply average(16-16) football is at hand. Here's what was seen and heard on Day 1 of Quarterback Camp -- The biggest news of the day had to be the appearance of Brandon Marshall on the practice field. You can read about it HERE and HERE. Everyone seemed happy to see Marshall, a key component to the Broncos' success in 2008 -- Mike Shanahan was a bit surprised - "He's doing everything a receiver would do except catch the ball. It's ahead of what I thought initially, I was told he could not work out until a month before we went to training camp. And we still thought we could get him in shape, ready to go for our first practice. As for when Marshall might be able to catch a ball again, and his availability for Training Camp, Shanny had this to say -- June 22 with will be the first day he'll be able to catch the football, so tha...

Quarterback Camp Marks The Beginning Of "The Quest'
2008-05-19 18:36:00 Quarterback Camp. Those words won't spark much of a reaction from mainstream fans, but for us Broncos-Fanatics, any term used to describe on-feild activites is reason to get excited. For the players, it's time to get down to the business of coming together as a football team. The Broncos have added 36 new faces to the roster and those guys need to get to know each other a bit. For the MHR, it means time to get serious about covering the team on a day-to-day basis. I have officially termed the 2008 season as "The Quest". It is both direct and to the point, as well as general, enigmatic. I have purposfully left off what "The Quest" is for. I leave that to you. It is far beyond me to tell you what your expectations for 2008 should be. I have my own, and for me "The Quest" to reach those expectations starts today. Just like "The Reloading" season before it, 2008 now has a moniker. Use it with pride! As with any Qu...

Buccaneers to add yet another Quarterback to the Roster
2008-04-03 13:55:00 I've slowly come to grips with the Bucs, Jon Gruden's affinity for collecting Quarterbacks for his roster. I was disgusted when the Bucs wasted a draft pick on QB Bruce Gradkowski, furious when they dealt another draft pick for retired QB Jake Plummer, and was disappointed when they traded yet another draft pick for re-tread QB Brian Griese. I've realized and come to accept the fact that no position on the Bucs roster can be discussed in absolutes, especially the QB position. Take the 2008 NFL Draft for example, the Bucs could select a Quarterback with one of their 5 Draft Picks. This notion became a true possibility when the Bucs have been rumored to be scouting: QB Chad Henne (Michigan) 6'2, 224lbs - A four-year starter with a strong arm, Henne isn't very mobile and is a little short for the position. Henne struggles when pressured and may need to work on his mechanics some. Has tremendous football intelligence and is a vocal leader. Could develop into a good pro if he's ...

Broncos Sign Quarterback Cullen Finnerty
2008-03-28 00:44:00 The Denver Broncos on Thursday signed free-agent quarterback Cullen Finnerty, Head Coach Mike Shanahan announced. As per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. Finnerty (6-foot-2, 223 pounds) is a second-year player who joins Denver after spending his rookie year with Baltimore. Finnerty, who entered the league with Baltimore on May 16 as a college free agent from Grand Valley State University, saw time on the Ravens' practice squad late last season and spent the final two weeks on the club's active roster. He has yet to appear in a preseason or regular-season game in the NFL. As a rookie in 2007, Finnerty signed with Baltimore's practice squad on Dec. 6 after the club waived him on July 24. He spent two weeks competing with that group before he was signed to the Ravens' active roster on Dec. 21. Finnerty was active but did not play during their final two games of the season. Finnerty was a four-year starter at Grand Valley State, which he led to three national c...

Sammy Baugh is the best quarterback in history
2008-03-24 19:53:00 I'll keep saying it, because it's true. In discussions with other fans regarding what makes the best quarterback of all time, there is no single metric that demands conclusion. Championships are challenged as defining of the greatest accomplishment in sports, but then attacked on the basis that they are a team award. Stats are deemed incomparable between different quarterbacks for precisely the same reason -- context includes personnel and era. Amidst this fog of metrics most fans are left no closer to a reasonable conclusion than the one they started with, that my guy, person X, is the best quarterback ever. I join those fans in creating a metric exclusively because it leads to the conclusion I want. At least I am honest. Neither Joe Montana, nor Brett Favre, nor John Elway, nor Tom Brady, nor even Johnny Unitas, ever had the pleasure of playing in the same league as Otto Graham. Only Johnny Unitas among those listed had the chance to play prior to the Live Ball Era -- a 1978 con...

The Best Quarterback Ever.
2008-03-04 17:12:00 I was all set for a different topic today and then I turned on the radio and heard that Brett Favre was retiring.Brett Favre is The Best Quarterback. Ever. Period.I don't want to get into stats or Superbowls or all that junk. Yes, Favre trails Elway and Montana and some other guys in terms of Superbowls won -- playing in two, winning one, both relatively early in his career. Yes, Favre has thrown more interceptions than any other QB in history (but he's started more consecutive games than any other QB, too, so that makes sense.) That all doesn't really matter, because Best-Ness is not about stats.Best-Ness is about intangibles, and not the kind of intangibles that let you line up under center for every single game from the 3rd week of 1992 on-- the longest streak ever and one that will be hard to break.Intangibles beyond that make one The Best and Favre has those intangibles. I'll let you in on a secret: I didn't always like Brett. In fact, I thought it was a mistake to trade f...
Quarterback news
2008-03-03 19:24:00 You already knew that Todd Collins was in. Jason Campbell is very much in but he's also very much recovered from a knee injury suffered late last season. Per an interview with the 'Stache at the official site: Q: How is your knee feeling two months removed from the dislocated patella injury? A: "I don't feel [the injury] at all. I feel like I'm 100 percent. I'm healthy. I'm back working out and trying to get myself in the best shape possible." Good, good, good, good, good. Cannot be said enough. Knee injuries terrify me for their special likelihood -- as opposed to say hurt pinkies or bruised whatever -- of being degenerative. Quarterbacks particularly need to be capable of planting that knee in order to deliver the ball down the field. And you also need that knee when you are ignoring good advice: Q: Coach Zorn is famous for his "Slip 'n' Slide" drills with his quarterbacks. Are you ready for that?

Some would say that there has been an industry convergence...in what Patrick Johann Hindert refers to as "overlapping markets": structured settlements, factoring, special needs planning and life settlements. Is it just a marketing gimmick or is there really a convergence? If there is, is it a new concept?

Jason Campbell is the quarterback of the future (presently)

Likewise it's worth noting how the newest offensive coordinator now gone head coach feels about his starting quarterback. (He is the starting quarterback, yes?) Per Covering The Redskins, emphasis mine: Zorn said he will hire a new offensive coordinator to replace himself and he is unsure who will call plays until that person is chosen.. It is unclear if there will be a quarterback coach hired as well (his specialty). The offense will be a west coast style, but Zorn wouldn't go so far as to say that he is going to implement what has become a standard west coast formation.. His eyes l...

Sara Evans Dating Former Bama Quarterback

Evans turns 37 tomorrow and has three children with Schelske. A friend of the country singer confirms to PEOPLE that Evans and Jay Barker, a former football star at the University of Alabama who now hosts a sports radio show in Birmingham, are an item. “They are dating,” the friend tells PEOPLE. Barker was one of the most successful quarterbacks in Alabama history. He led the team to the 1992 National Championship. He has the highest winning percentage of any quarterback ever to play at Bama. His college record was 35-2-1. Nix you should be proud. That is about as good as a Bama graduate can do. He might finally make it into the Crimson Tide Hall of Fame now.

Is Tom Brady The Greatest Quarterback Ever?
2008-01-31 06:51:00 Everyone defines greatness a different way. Some define greatness through records. Some define it through championships. When you think of great quarterbacks some that come right to mind are Unitas, Montana, Marino, Bradshaw, Starr, Staubach, Elway, Farve, Manning, and, whether you love him or you hate him, Brady. On Sunday, Tom Brady has a chance to do what none of the quarterbacks on that list have done, and that is go undefeated. Some already say Brady is the greatest postseason quaterback of all-time and his resume defends that argument very well. Three Super Bowl rings, an undefeated record at home in the playoffs, and two Super Bowl MVPs. Not to mention he is the leader of what might go down as the best football team to ever step on a football field. Not bad for a sixth round draft pick out of the University of Michigan.What It Really Means To Go Undefeated?It means you will be glorified in history forever.
