Where Crap Quarterbacks Dominate

The game is simple. Choose a starting NFL QB each week (anytime before kickoff of the first game). The worse your QB performs, the better. There are only two categories- Most INTs and lowest Passer Rating. The two winners at the end of the year will win...something.

*You cannot use a quarterback more than once during the season. It's ok. There are a lot of bad ones out there, and many are sure to be injured or benched.

Welcome!

My old college buddies and I love to play "Guess the Line" with our quarterbacks before a big game. Most of the time, we try and be realistic- Kellen is gonna go 24 for 32 with 268 yards 3TDs and a pick, or Dennis will be 12 for 21 with 183 yards, 60 yards rushing and 3 total TDs.

In 2004, we had tickets to the Civil War in Corvalis. When asked to "Guess the Line," I tried a reverse jinx and said Kellen was going to go 11 for 29 with 119 yards 0TDs and 5INTs. Didn't work- he really did suck! 13 for 29 for 126 and 3 picks and we lost 50-21 (to prove to you what a surreal and disheartening experience that was, even Derek Anderson only threw ONE pick, which is like a zero for him).

Anyway, from that experience I learned that I was much better at predicting how crappy of a day a QB was going to have. Plus, it seems like there is a lot less pressure to pick a loser. I thought: Why not honor the D.A.'s, the Delhommes, the JaMarcus Russells, the Rex Grossmans and whoever the dude is who is starting for Tampa?

So here it is, and I hope more people join my crappy QB suicide pool experiment than just me. Otherwise that would be embarrassing. Almost as embarrassing as losing your job to D.A.

To make your weekly picks, you can either e-mail me at joe.boyd82@gmail.com, post a comment below on this or any other future post, or hit me up on facebook.

I will update the scores each week. May the worst man win.

  5. I'll take the bait and go with Derek Anderson, though if they change the location to a muddy field in Scappoose I'll have to change my selection.
