Jeff Garcia Signs With Oakland

In a move that may not have really caught your attention, 39 year old Jeff Garcia signed a deal to become the Raiders back-up quarterback, behind third year man JaMarcus Russell.

What’s Next For Kurt Warner?

37 year old QB Kurt Warner has accomplished a lot in his 11 year career. He has appeared in three Super Bowls (winning one), while also winning two NFL MVP awards and racking up nearly 30,000 passing yards and 182 TD passes in the process. But after the Cardinals recent loss in Super Bowl XLIII, Warner is scheduled to hit the free agent market this off-season, and has a serious decision to make about his future. Read more

Jeff Garcia’s Future Up In The Air

Word out of Tampa is that QB Jeff Garcia may not be back with the club in 2009. New GM Mark Dominik told the St. Petersburg Times that the team’s new offensive coordinator - which could be former Dolphins OC and Rams head coach Scott Linehan - will have plenty of input in the decision.

We Were Right About, We Were Wrong About

Week 9 was a crazy one, as a few struggling superstars bounced back and had great games, while other guys who were on a roll, just couldn’t keep it up. Second year WRs like Detroit’s Calvin Johnson and Kansas City’s Dwayne Bowe continued to be consistent fantasy options, and look like the future studs of the position. Read more

Who We Like, Who We Dislike

Heading into Week 7, Matt Schaub has thrown for more than 300 yards in each of his last two games, and he faces the lowly Detroit Lions this week- at home. Look for Schaub to be one of fantasy’s top signal callers, and don’t hesitate to start him if you have him. Read more

Opportunity Knocks For Losman, Others

Former first round pick J.P. Losman lost his starting job to Trent Edwards this season, but injuries can quickly change the picture. Losman had the opportunity to come in and play for the first time this season after Edwards left with a concussion in Week 5. Jeff Garcia, Sage Rosenfels, Seneca Wallace, Brandon Stokley and Tom Santi are others that could see an increased role in coming weeks due to injuries. Read more

Tarvaris In Trouble?

Everybody that follows the National Football League, and everybody in the National Football League - including Vikings head coach Brad Childress, knows that Childress’ career in Minnesota is directly tied to the success of third year QB Tarvaris Jackson. With the Vikings at 0-2 on the season, is Tarvaris in trouble? Read more

Stallworth Rocks In Cleveland

Our sources tell us that 27 year old free agent acquisition Donte’ Stallworth is fully recovered from a hamstring injury that kept him out of the early part of training camp. We’re now hearing that the career underachiever is fitting in very well in Cleveland’s offense and developing great chemistry with Derek Anderson. Read more

Buccaneers QB Situation…

FFChamps is reporting that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers favor Luke McCown over Brian Griese as Jeff Garcia’s back-up right now.

No-Offseason Take: Much will happen between now and Week 1. While Garcia is expected to be the starter, it’s clear that Jon Gruden is still really searching for his franchise QB. Expect rookie Josh Johnson to get some preseason looks, and don’t be surprised if Gruden tries to swap out Chris Simms for another signal caller during training camp.

Jeff Garcia Won’t Hold Out…

Despite the recent displeasure that Buccaneers QB Jeff Garcia has displayed with his contract situation, word is that he definitely will not hold out of training camp, and is preparing to be Tampa Bay’s starting QB in Week 1.

Earnest Graham, Jeff Garcia Disgruntled…

The Buccaneers OTAs have rolled right along without last year’s starting RB Earnest Graham and starting QB Jeff Garcia. Both players are unhappy with their current contract situations, and while Graham has not showed up to practice, Garcia has attended but is likely to skip out at some point.

We expect both situations to be ironed out by training camp.

Jeff Garcia Could Hold Out…

The Tampa Tribune is reporting that QB Jeff Garcia could hold out of training camp this season. The 38 year old apparently wants a new deal.

Yeah, he’s played well, but he should be happy to be in the freaking league. His contract of $7 million this season seems fair to us, and his comments about needing more “respect from the top” are a bit ridiculous.

This could be one of the reasons that GM Bruce Allen has held on to so many QBs.
