Quarterback situations to look for:
Buffalo Bills: JP Loseman and Kelly Holcomb will be
battling it out from the time training camp begins, with
Holcomb the most likely victor on pure ability alone.
Last year the Bills made the mistake of inserting Loseman
into the starting lineup too early, so watch these two
guys give it their all for the entire preseason schedule.
The Bills also have new head coach Dick Jauron and he will
want to set the tone early by changing the losing attitude
in Buffalo.
NY Jets: Another team with both a Quarterback
controversy and a new head coach. Eric Mangini comes
in to this season after having studied under Bill
Belichick. While Belichick doesn't put a lot of
emphasis on the preseason, Mangini might want to prove to
the tough New York crowd that he is worthy of being a head
coach at such a young age. The Jets will also have a
battle going on with Chad Pennington and Patrick Ramsey.
There are a lot of question marks surrounding both these
guys, but Pennington is one of the best in the league when
healthy. Ramsey will at least push him.
Oakland Raiders: Art Shell wants to install a new
attitude on to the most penalized team in the NFL, and
that starts with a business like atmosphere in the
preseason. The quarterback situation may be
solidified in Aaron Brooks, but he needs to prove he's
worth after a bad stint in New Orleans and will also have
some pressure from Andrew Walters. Oakland could be
a good team to watch since expectations are low after a
couple bad years.
Detroit Lions: Rod Marinelli wants football guys on his
team, guys who love to play. This reminds me of the
New England Patriot style of football and it could work
for Detroit as well. They will also be a team to
watch out for in the preseason with quarterbacks Jon Kitna
and Josh McCown both working hard in order to secure the
starting role. Both of these guys are capable
especially if one is facing second tier defenses in the
preseason.
Arizona Cardinals: It's time for Dennis Greene to
produce. This team is loaded with talent and they
have a great backup in Matt Leinart. Kurt Warner
doesn't want a repeat of what happened to him in New York
with Eli Manning, so you can bank on him being sharp in
preseason games and taking them seriously. Leinart
will get some time, and he's the most ready for the NFL
out of any of this talented rookie class.
These are just a couple of teams that you may want to
spend some extra time on when handicapping your 2006 NFL
Preseason predictions. If you do not want to spend
