Young Guns

After the first four games, this is where we stand:


Week one of the 2007 NFL season opened with a few interesting story lines. One of which, was the number of second or third year quarterbacks entering opening day as the starter for the first time in their, thus far, brief NFL career. Our very own Jason Campbell was one of a few "young guns" who was among a list of notable names.

In the spirit of charting Campbell's progress this season, I thought it would be nice to compare their respective stats.

Also, for the sake of keeping this discussion clean, I excluded quarterbacks in their fourth NFL season as the list would then include the Big Bens and Eli's of the NFL. Although this would still make for some interesting discussion.

*A.Smith and the Browns are somewhat the exception, but their QBs are in their third NFL season. If you guys see something or someone that should be added, please chime in.

* haven't played due to injury

I think it would also be interesting to put up the W/L for each so we can track the most important stat!

I bet I'm the only Travaris Jackson fan in the world. Well, not so much a fan but I think he can be a very solid QB for many years

I haven't seen much of him other than highlights. I know AP will help him out alot up there.

Tavaris Jackson is from my hometown Montgomery, Alabama I play against him in high school graduated the same year and everything I'm glad he is doing good he is the only player playing in the NFL from Montgomery. Fred Beasley, Reggie Barlow & Eddie Robinson aren't playing anymore well we just cut Fred. Tavaris a good player & person big props 2 T!!!

You and Viks fans...I haven't seen him play yet.

is Travaris jackson a little undersized, i remember watching a game this year he looks solid but a little small.
