Favre’s wearing green. Garcia is your No. 1 quarterback. It’s time to deal with it, Chucky.

Why rest Brian Griese for the final preseason game, as was done Thursday night against Houston? Shouldn’t a healthy Griese be in there getting reps, since he might not see action in months?

On the Buccaneers Radio Network, Gruden said Griese sat out “because he’s already made this team. He’s going to make things interesting around here this season?”

What the heck does that mean? If Griese “makes it interesting,” then the season is in pretty bad shape.

Garcia is a better quarterback and a better leader. There is no doubt. There is no maybe. It’s pathetic when the Coach can’t see the value in supporting his No. 1 quarterback.
