As far as this year, you are lucky if your quarterback makes it all the way through without any injuries. But 11-16 games is safe bet for sure in my book. I will predict he will miss a couple of games in the regular season.

I really doubt he's here beyond this year.

Given the way his contract is structured and with Campbell waiting in the wings, I can't see him being the starter in 2007 much less 2-3 years from now.

He's going to win the Bowl and retire on top.
