Will the Jacksonville Jaguars look to make a change at QB in 2010?

I have a gut feeling that the Jaguars are going to draft QB Tim Tebow out of Florida in the first round of the NFL Draft next April.  Even if the Jaguars do draft Tebow I think they should keep David Garrard around for at least one more year as the starter.  Garrard played in all 16 games for the Jaguars last season and he completed 292 of 477 passes (61.2%) for 3,395 yards with 13 TD passes and 9 INTs (84.0 QB Rating).  He also carried the football 72 times for 283 yards (3.9 ypc) with 3 TD runs in 2009.  Garrard has now played in 72 games in his NFL career and he has completed 1,170 of 1,915 passes (61.1%) for 13,269 yards with 66 TD passes and 39 INTs (84.9 QB Rating).  Garrard has also carried the ball 314 times for 1,467 yards (4.7 ypc) with 12 TD runs in his career.  I don’t see Garrard being a back-up so he would have to go if the Jaguars decide to rebuild.

28-year old Luke McCown is a solid back-up.  He played in only 3 games for the Jaguars last season and he completed 1 of 3 passes (33.3%) for 2 yards without a TD pass or a pickoff (42.4 QB Rating).  McCown has now played in 15 games in his NFL career and he has completed 143 of 241 passes (59.3%) for 1,619 yards with 9 TD passes and 10 INTs (74.7 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 21 times for 157 yards (7.5 ypc) in his career.  If forced into duty I think McCown would do a decent job for the Jaguars.

The Jacksonville Jaguars need David Garrard to step up

If the Jaguars are going to make the playoffs this season they are going to need QB David Garrard to step up.  Garrard has played in 13 games this season for the Jaguars and he has completed 250 of 412 passes (60.7%) for 2,987 yards with 10 TD passes and 6 INTs (84.9 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 66 times for 267 yards (4.0 ypc) with 2 TD runs this year.  Garrard often gets too much criticism for his play but I think he has had a decent run as QB of the Jags because he has never had a elite receiver to work with.  All of this talk about drafting Tim Tebow in the first round is madness.

The Jacksonville Jaguars need Josh Scobee to get this act together

The Jaguars need kicker Josh Scobee to get his act back together.  He has made 8 of 12 field goals this season and he is 13 for 14 on extra points.  With the offense the Jaguars have they can not afford to leave points on the football field.  Scobee better get his act together soon if he wants to be on the Jaguars next season.
