NFC East QB rankings

Another point of view reinforcing my contention that the Eagles have the worst QB within the NFC East (at least until proven otherwise). Though perhaps the biggest surprise in this ranking is that Kolb, who has only started two games over the past two seasons is ranked 16th overall in the league. How pathetic to #s 17-32 that they couldn't beat out a guy who has been 2nd string his entire career until now.

Yahoo! Sports columnist Jason Cole has the Cowboys ranked third in the NFC East in quarterbacks.

 

Cole put the Washington Redskins at No. 8 overall, the N.Y. Giants at No. 9 and Dallas at No. 10.Philadelphia, which now has Kevin Kolb as the starter, was ranked No. 16.

 

Cole wrote of the Redskins: "If Donovan McNabb was still in Philadelphia, the Eagles would probably be No. 6 or No. 7. But trading McNabb automatically weakened the Eagles (at least until Kevin Kolb proves he can play) and was an amazing boost for the Redskins."

 

On the Giants, Cole wrote: "Eli 'The Enigma' Manning is coming off the best statistical season of his career, including a 93.1 rating (that's nearly 14 points higher than his career rating). Yet there are still plenty of people who will tell you that few players have done less with more than Manning. Last season, the Giants were 2-6 against playoff teams and Manning had a rating of 71 or lower in four of those games."

 

On the Cowboys, Cole wrote: "Tony Romo has never had a season rating of less than 91 and has a career TD-to-interception ratio of nearly 2-to-1 (107 TDs, 55 interceptions). Yet many Cowboys fans view him as the second coming of Danny White, who flopped as the starter afterRoger Staubach retired. A big part of the problem is that it just doesn't seem as if Romo takes the game seriously enough. Maybe his recent decision to put football before golf speaks to a change in perspective."
