Yeah, true. Any kind of injuries or just bad play will quickly remove anyone from serious contention.
Cousins is losing his toys (due to injury and free agency) so he might not produce.
Cutler might just get injured or suck again.
Bradford could prove that last year wasn't just an O-line problem and that he just doesn't have it.
Bridgewater might not recover fully and still hadn;t quite put it together.
Jimmy G. is very unlikely to play this season and he's looked shaky so far with 7 INT in camp.
Brees likely signs another extension.
Easy to eliminate the whole list with very probable reasons.
On the other hand. I could have added Carson Palmer and Alex Smith to that list of potentials, cause both their teams seem to be looking at them as temporary starters before a youth movement takes place. I just felt that since they are still under contract it made less sense to add them.
We'll see as the year goes on.
