Baltimore Ravens 02/06/2007 1:05 PMThe Baltimore Sun reports at a recent team news conference, Ravens GM Ozzie Newsome seemed more concerned about where his team was going instead of where it had come from in the 2006 season. And he addressed an area that few talk about since veteran QB Steve McNair became the starter and QB Kyle Boller the backup. Who is going to be the Ravens' quarterback of the future? "I have come to the realization that Steve could play two years, three years, I don't know," Newsome said. "But I'm already starting to think about who could be the next trigger-puller, and whether it's going to be Kyle, someone in the draft, someone in next year's draft, or someone on someone else's [team] like Steve came from someone else's team."Read more

Atlanta Falcons 02/05/2007 1:20 PMThe Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports QB Michael Vick will have the freedom to make plays with more than his arm and his legs next season. Falcons HC Bobby Petrino is giving the quarterback the green light to change calls at the line of scrimmage. "We're going to put it all on him," Petrino said Friday to a small group of reporters covering the Super Bowl. "That's something that's new to him. It's something he's excited about. It's the way I believe you train a quarterback. You make him responsible for the protections, you make him responsible for what I call trumping the center â when the center makes a protection call and the blitz shows something different."Read more
