Who Should I Start? David Blough or Bailey Zappe

Saturday, August 26, 10:18 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough rallied the team to an 18-17 comeback victory against the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday. Blough completed 11-for-22 pass attempts with 93 yards and one touchdown while rushing for another score. While under pressure and with eight minutes remaining in the third quarter, Blough started the come-from-behind victory by heaving a long TD pass to Davion Davis. With Kyler Murray out for the foreseeable future, the Cardinals are looking for someone to step up at quarterback. A win like this could put Blough in a position to be the team's starter for their upcoming Week 1 matchup vs. the Washington Commanders.

New England Patriots quarterback Bailey Zappe completed just 12 of 30 passes (40 percent) for 88 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions during Sunday's loss to the New York Jets. He also rushed for 13 yards. Snow and wind contributed to a very shaky game for Zappe, who took over as the Patriots' starting quarterback during the second half of the season. He finishes 2023 having amassed 1,272 passing yards, seven total touchdowns, and nine turnovers. Key questions face the Patriots this offseason, especially at quarterback and head coach. Both Zappe and Mac Jones find themselves on the hot seat as the Patriots, who have clinched a top-three draft pick, could look to select a new signal-caller.
