With the opening of training camps right around the corner, our collective obsession with quarterbacks is rekindled once again.
And not just over whether or not Brett Favre decides to play with the Vikings, which I think he will.
There's Tom Brady's return from knee reconstruction, opening the way for Brady's fill-in at New England, Matt Cassel, to land the No. 1 job in Kansas City. Cleveland's Carson Palmer and Seattle's Matt Hasselbeck also return from injuries.
Jay Cutler talked his way out of Denver and will take over in Chicago, with Kyle Orton moving to the Mile High City.
Then, there are the various quarterback battles.
There's a three-way duel in Tampa Bay, featuring Luke McCown, Byron Leftwich and rookie Josh Freeman. In Cleveland, Brady Quinn enters camp with a slight edge over Derek Anderson.
The Jets must decide between Kellen Clemens and rookie Mark Sanchez. In Detroit, Daunte Culpepper is likely to start but the Lions are itching to see Matthew Stafford, the top overall draft pick, show off his incredible arm at some point.
The Raiders will stick with JaMarcus Russell, for the time being although the veteran Jeff Garcia is in the wings.
And whatever became of Vince Young and Matt Leinart? Backups both. Young is playing behind Kerry Collins in Tennessee and Leinart is playing the role of caddy for Kurt Warner in Arizona.
