  Jets | Geno Smith won't be benched    Mon Sep 30, 03:01 PM

New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan said he will stick with QB Geno Smith despite his rough start against the Tennessee Titans in Week 4. However, Ryan hinted that Smith needs to improve after turning the ball over a season-high four times against the Titans. Smith is tied for the league lead with 11 turnovers through four games. 'You can't buy experience, but with that being said, we still have to do a much better job -- Geno, in particular -- of protecting the football at all costs,' Ryan said, 'You can't be nonchalant about it, you have to protect the ball.' QBs Matt Simms and Brady Quinn are the other options, and Simms has zero NFL experience.

Footballguys view: The Jets know there will be growing pains with the rookie. His ball security needs to improve in order for the Jets to get on the right track. However, we like the way Smith has been working through his mistakes and staying confident as a passer.

The New York Jets plan to re-sign free-agent QB Brady Quinn next week.

Footballguys view: By cutting him then making this move to pick him up the team won't have to guarantee his salary. He's going to be on the Jets roster as long as Mark Sanchez (shoulder) is out. Geno Smith will start with Matt Simms as his primary backup in week 1.

  Jets | Mark Sanchez could be cut    Tue Sep 3, 02:56 PM

The New York Jets aren't ruling out releasing QB Mark Sanchez (shoulder), even though they'd have to eat $8.25 million if they made that move. Sanchez hasn't thrown a football in nine days due to a shoulder injury. He won't play in Week 1, and his status is 'very uncertain.' If newly-signed QB Brady Quinn learns the offense quickly behind QB Geno Smith, Sanchez could become expendable. The team is ready to move on without Sanchez, but he counts $12.9 million against the salary cap this year, and he'll have a $4.8 million charge next season.

Footballguys view: This move would not be surprising whatsoever. The Jets could place Sanchez on the short-term Injured Reserve to have him available later in the season. Head coach Rex Ryan didn't indicate that the Jets had any plans to release Sanchez.

  Jets | Mark Sanchez sits    Tue Sep 3, 01:52 PM

New York Jets QB Mark Sanchez (shoulder) rode a stationary bike during practice Monday, Sept. 2, while dealing with a bruised joint in his right shoulder. Sanchez isn't expected to be ready for the season opener in Week 1. QB Geno Smith is the clear choice to start that game, even after the team signed QB Brady Quinn.

Footballguys view: We'll see Smith as the starter and the Jets will use either Matt Simms or Brady Quinn as his primary backup. Sanchez could go on the short-term Injured Reserve.

  Jets | Brady Quinn signed    Mon Sep 2, 01:06 PM

The New York Jets have signed free-agent QB Brady Quinn (Seahawks). Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: In a corresponding move, the team released QB Graham Harrell. Quinn gives the team quality veteran depth behind starter Geno Smith. His addition makes some around the franchise think the shoulder injury to Mark Sanchez is worse than originally feared.

  Seahawks | Brady Quinn cut    Sat Aug 31, 04:45 PM

The Seattle Seahawks released QB Brady Quinn.

Footballguys view: The writing was on the wall when the team added veteran Tarvaris Jackson earlier this summer. Quinn is a quality backup and spot starter so QB desperate teams should give him a tryout.

  Seahawks | Salary unlikely to be factor in backup QB competition    Sat Jul 13, 11:32 AM

The Seattle Seahawks likely will not use salaries to determine if QB Tarvaris Jackson or QB Brady Quinn wins the No. 2 quarterback job because Jackson is scheduled to make $840,000 while Quinn is scheduled to make $715,000.

Footballguys view: Jackson is a better fit as the backup QB behind Russell Wilson. He knows the Darrell Bevell offense from his days in Minnesota and Seattle. Quinn is more of a traditional pocket passer but lacks the confidence to be effective if filling in as a starter.

  Seahawks | Tarvaris Jackson may have edge for No. 2 QB job    Sat Jul 13, 11:28 AM

Seattle Seahawks QB Tarvaris Jackson could have an edge over QB Brady Quinn for the No. 2 quarterback job because he knows the system and appears to be a better fit for the direction the offense appears to be going.

Footballguys view: We agree with this report. Jackson worked with OC Darrell Bevell in both Minnesota and Seattle. He is also more athletic than Quinn and Jackson's skill set more closely resembles that of starter Russell Wilson.

  Seahawks | Two to compete for No. 2 QB job    Thu Jun 13, 08:14 PM

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said QB Tarvaris Jackson and Brady Quinn will compete for the backup quarterback job during training camp.

Footballguys view: We're expecting Jackson to win this job. He's simply a better fit for the offense and knows Darrell Bevell's system since he worked under him in both Seattle and Minnesota. Quinn is a nice third-string QB who gives the team veteran insurance. They would be in trouble if he was thrust into the starting lineup. Quinn may have difficulty beating out Jerrod Johnson for the QB3 spot.

  Seahawks | Bringing back Tarvaris Jackson?    Tue Jun 11, 11:15 PM

Free-agent QB Tarvaris Jackson (Bills) is expected to visit the Seattle Seahawks in the next day or two to possibly sign a contract with the team, two sources said Tuesday, June 11.

Footballguys view: Jackson was the team's starting quarterback in 2011, but lost his job last summer to QB Russell Wilson. After that he was traded to the Buffalo Bills. QB Brady Quinn was added this offseason to be a backup for the Seahawks. Jackson is likely to beat out Quinn for the primary backup job behind Wilson.

  Seahawks | Brady Quinn appears to have job locked down    Fri Jun 7, 09:51 PM

Seattle Seahawks QB Brady Quinn appeared to have a solid performance during organized team activities (OTAs), and there seems no real doubt that he is the primary backup to starting QB Russell Wilson.

Footballguys view: Jerrod Johnson could stick around as the team's third-string QB. He's got a big arm, is strong and athletic. However, Johnson struggles with accuracy and decision making. Like most teams in a championship window, the Seahawks are in big trouble if their starter (Russell Wilson) goes down with an injury.

Seattle Seahawks QB Brady Quinn received a one-year deal worth $780,000. He has a $715,000 base salary with a partially guaranteed $65,000 signing bonus. He has a $620,000 cap number.

Footballguys view: Quinn will serve as the primary backup behind Russell Wilson. The Seahawks may add another QB via the 2013 NFL Draft to add to the competition.
