Everybody’s waiting on Tony Romo

On the surface, it’s rather surprising that in a league with 32 teams and fewer than 32 starting-caliber quarterbacks, Jay Cutler and Colin Kaepernick remain unsigned.

The Buffalo Bills were smart to stick with Tyrod Taylor

Last offseason, after quarterback Tyrod Taylor made the Pro Bowl while posting the NFL’s eighth-best passer rating and rushing for more yards (568) than every quarterback except league MVP Cam Newton, the Buffalo Bills gave Taylor a six-year, $92 million extension.

A pledge to stop shaming teams for selling the farm for potential franchise quarterbacks

I was extremely critical of the Houston Texans’ decision to spend $72 million last offseason on a quarterback with seven career starts and a passer rating of 86.0 on his résumé. And it turns out, a lot of us were right. Brock Osweiler doesn’t appear to be a franchise-caliber quarterback, and the Texans are likely suffering […]
