2010 NFL Week One: Philadelphia Eagles, Michael Vick and Teams With QB Problems
The NFL 2010 season is in full swing with only two games left to play on Monday Night Football.
This Sunday's games showed many fans that there are still quarterback issues on many teams and changes might need to be possibly made for week two.
Here are the following teams that may need to make a change at quarterback sooner than later.
Philadelphia Eagles
1 of 6
New starting quarterback Kevin Kolb struggled early on for the Eagles and only had a completion percentage of 50-percent before going down with a concussion.
It was evident that Kolb was having issues running the offense and once Michael Vick came back in, he was able to put the Eagles in a position to almost tie the game.
Vick's comeback performance in the game had him throwing a touchdown pass and running for over 100 yards.
Vick did what Vick does best and that is make plays.
Plus his arm was a cannon throwing lasers all over the field.
Head Coach Andy Reid may have already said that Kolb is still the starter, but if he cannot produce, then Eagles fans will call for Vick.
Cleveland Browns
2 of 6
Jake Delhomme played very well in the preseason and in the first quarter and a half of the season opener for the Browns.
Heck, the Browns were even dominating the Buccaneers 14-3 at one point too, but then the interception came and Delhomme was never the same quarterback.
His confidence was rocked and he never played the same for the rest of the game and it didn't help that his offensive coordinator was calling plays that were way too conservative.
The Browns were supposed to be a running team in 2010, but 17 total rushing yards in the second half will not help Delhomme and his possibly resurgence in 2010.
Browns forums online lit up after the game with some fans calling for Seneca Wallace, others calling for offensive coordinator Brian Daboll to be fired, and finally a few saying to put in the rookie Colt McCoy.
Team President Mike Holmgren didn't want a quarterback controversy, but there might be another brewing in in Cleveland is Delhomme cannot recover from this bad opening performance.
San Francisco
3 of 6
Former No. 1 overall pick Alex Smith was supposed to make the next step in resurrecting his career this season, but after a mediocre season opener where the Niners lost bad, another quarterback's name may be starting under center soon.
A 57-percent completion percentage along with throwing two interceptions was not the starting Smith and Head Coach Mike Singletary hoped for.
The Niners are supposed to be the front-runners to win the NFC West, but that will not happen unless Smith can raise his level of play.
Plus, he has both Troy Smith and David Carr looming behind him and they are both capable of being a starting quarterback if Smith falters in the following weeks.
Carolina Panthers
4 of 6
Matt Moore needs to step up his game if he is to keep his starter status in Carolina especially with rookie second round pick Jimmy Clausen warming up as his backup.
A three interception performance against the Giants does not bode well for the young starter and he needs to put up more points on the scoreboard if he is to keep his current job title.
Buffalo Bills
5 of 6
Trent Edwards is the incumbent, but a 52-percent completion percentage along with a measly 4.1 yard per pass play average needs to improve otherwise he too could be headed for the bench in the coming weeks.
Plus, he was not able to get rookie running back C.J. Spiller more involved in the offense against the Dolphins.
If the Bills are going to pull out any upsets this year, the quarterback needs to get Spiller the ball period.
If this cannot happen, then it will be another long season for Bills fans.
Arizona Cardinals
6 of 6
Derek Anderson may have led the Cardinals to a season opener victory over the St. Louis Rams, but just barely.
He showed great chemistry with Steve Breaston, who had over 100 yards receiving, but his 15 pass attempts to Pro Bowler Larry Fitzgerald and only completing three of them does not bode well for Anderson's future.
If Fitzgerald cannot get receptions, then Anderson will take a seat on the bench for rookie Max Hall.
