5 Rookie QBs to start?!?

Luck and RG 3 of course.

Weeden for cleveland
Tannehill for miami
and Pete Carroll pulled the biggest move with guy criticized by Mr. Stiff-Wig himself, as being too short, Russell Wilson.

Pete of course will be the most the successful with his moves

Ryan Lindley could wind up getting some starts in Arizona later on too.

Three of them were no-brainers: Luck, RG3, and Weeden. Drafted to start right away and ready. Tannehill had the advantage of having his college HC as the OC of his team, plus competing against the pulse-less David Garrard and uninspiring Matt Moore. Wilson was just a hell of a lot better than Matt Flynn, won the job on his own merit...as I said he would.

Disgagree a bout Matt Moore. Dolphins were decent down the stretch last season with Moore at the helm. Tanehill is one of those guys that had just became franchise QBs through the draft scouting process.

Dolphin QB dillema really seems like a sad situation. I hope they fix it, as they have a nuclear type weapon in their backfield.

The NFL sure is changing, but having guys like Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, Cam Newton & Andy Dalton all step in their rookie seasons and succeed goes a long way in making coaches feel better about making the move themselves.

You mean Reggie Bush, the guy who has 1 1,000 yard rushing season in 6 seasons?

I really like what he did last year but this season should go a long way in telling if he is actually that player IMO now that he is going to be the clear focal point of that offense.

:roll: I was just stating facts. I like Reggie but he has not put up the numbers to be considered a 'nuclear type weapon'. Like I said we'll see what he can do this year but even if he can improve on last season the Dolphins most likely won't even sniff the postseason.

True, probably nuclear was inapproriately used. The Hurricane that ravaged New Orleans was "nuclear" REGGIE BUSH was like the savior that cleaned that city up and brought a newfound pride to a once downtrodden franchise and city. Unfortunately for the saints, a secondary devastation occured to that city and franchise when he left.
