Will any QBs be "Delhomming" this year?

Something that I think is rather interesting is that a generation of QBs is getting further into their 30s and some could be slipping a bit, declining from their peak.  There's guys like let's say Manning, Brady, and Gannon who are the types that can stay rocking in their late 30s but they are rarer to come by.  

 

Here's my list:

 

Matt Schaub (33) has no doubt slipped into this state.  He's lost whatever he had.  McGloin and/or Carr will be playing soon.  

 

Eli Manning (33) definitely showed some slippage last season; I can see it continuing if they can't get a decent run game going

 

Josh McNown (35) will be benched by week 3/4

 

Tony Romo (34) sure, he has Dez and T-Will and Murray coming back but that OL is young and inexperienced, he's a toss up.  I can see him putting up an efficient year but his TD numbers may be a little down and that team as a whole is bad.  

 

 

The aging question marks/prospects:

 

Jay Cutler (31) -- Unbelievable supporting cast but he really knows how to sh*t the bed

 

Philip Rivers (32) -- I think he keeps doing well.  Has a great supporting cast

 

Big Ben (32) 

 

Matt Ryan (29)

 

 

There's going to be a lot of QB hungry teams in a few years methinks.

Wow watching highlights of the last Giants game, Eli looks like pure dog poo. They showed the stat where he's had 11 drives and only 14 points. The Giants are going to have a terrible season ala 2009 Panthers season, but I don't even think they have a backup that can win a few games like we did. So it'll probably be worse.

Romo will be benched only when Jerry Jones stops making decisions with his ego.

On that day, you will also see pigs fly and Hell freeze over.

 

So in a weird way, he may mirror Delhomme late in his career the most.  Start him until complete implosion.

    • It's a failing of most first time HCs. I get an OC not being a defensive expert but they do play the other side every week so it always amazes me that poop slides so often. First year? Sure but as time goes on they need to be a HC and have a balanced and good team in the end. They went offense for that reason and the QB issues the team had. They had to go WR again this year because they failed so hard last year at that position in the first. That's on both the HC and GM on that miss IMO. This year they went out and got a bunch of free agents and drafted more on the D. It just doesn't appear they did it well again. Add in keeping Evero and missing out on an expensive free agent, thankfully but it would have lessened the cap gap in spending, it's not like they didn't try. It's more of an issue of competency than cap. Building around Evero after last year is damning for thr GM and HC. That's the biggest issue. They just didn't do any of it well. Now they have some younger talent and I don't think there is a decent coach in that house.
    • Inside linebacker is basically non existent. And that goes against everything that has been Carolina Panthers for a couple decades now. And that is just one such area that has suffered as we have paid through the nose to build up our offense around a bad investment.
    • Thats why its going to suck spending another top 10 pick on a qb instead of an elite Lb, pass rusher or whatever.  but it what it is and you have to have a qb to win in this league
