    Hmm... I'd rather have Garrard.

    but that's not the question...

    I guess you can put me down for Collins. He looks a lot better than he did a year ago.

    uhh...leftwich. When you culd have a top 20 QB be your backup, you got pretty good depth.

    yeah. that was kind of my reasoning. Collins work last year can't really be considered a true reflection of what he can do now. Not that the guy is some kind of dynamo... also, Collins won't get allusions of a starting job. He would know his role better. I am puzzled however that we would bring Byron in to talk.

    Pehaps it will be something like this:

    Coach Fisher: Glad you could make it Byron. Now please get out your playbook and put it on the table.

    Byron: okay coach.

    Coach Fisher: That is all. :wave:

    Leftwich isn't going to want to come to a team where he has no shot at starting. Collins is better suited as the backup, because he knows his role, and -- although might still want to start -- accepts the role without complaint.

    Besides that, IMO Collins is the better QB. Leftwich has never thrown for more than 15 TD in a season since he's been in the NFL, nor has he ever won more than 8 games in a season as a starter. In 4 years, he's played in one playoff game. I liked him in college, but to me, he's never really been all that impressive as a pro.

    Why all the love for Leftwich anyway. He has done squat in this league, is a bust and on top of that he can't stay healthy.

    Collins.

    There's no need to upset Vince at this point.

    not that i think we'll sign him but he's not starting anywhere he goes. its too close to the season. everyone already has their starters set and it'd take too long for him to learn the playbook to start w/. and if it ended as badly as they say it did in jax then i wouldn't be surprised at all if he signed w/ us for a year.
