Now we know they are here its time to pick who you think will win the QB battle. I'll bookmark and bring it back up when it happens so the winners can bask in thier glory...
I honestly dont care who wins as long as ONE wins and shows excellence in the position!

I'm picking.... Rettig!!!
Alright boys throw it out there!!!

Way too early, but I suspect Rettig will get the first look. Jennings may get to play earlier if they install spread packages, but I'm not sure this offensive coaching staff is committed to the transformation required to run any sort of option offense as a base - it will be change of pace, spread the field, only, for the foreseeable future.

I'm hoping it's Jennings. After a year of watching Mett fight cement feet, having a mobile QB is a must for me.

I hope this doesnt change into bashing one of them.

If I had to pick one of them now I'd go Jennings and really with no hesitations. Retting may have the higher upside and measurables but Jennings has the footwork, arm strength, and decision making now. Either way

I have to give Jennings the "way-to-early" edge.

Rivers looks to be the starter for 2014. So expect Jennings to be the second QB in due to his athletic abilities. He may even have a set of plays to run like Perrilloux did coming off the bench with Flynn starting.

Rettig is more ready, but Jennings has more upside.

Alex Smith vs Colin Kaepernick

Jennings.


I think our staff develops him better. If we had a competent QB coach then id say Hayden.


Hayden ha more potential but Anthony is better right now IMO.

My pick is Jennings. Mobile and agile QBs are what drive the high-power, high-scoring offenses in college football.

Even the NFL is slowly making the transition to these types of QBs ala RG3, Russel Wilson.

It's never too early to start having an uneducated opinion.

So I take Jennings FTW.

I guess all I have to go on is that Rettig has the most well put together highlight and stat presentation.

For the love of god I just want a GOOD QB. Why are we cursed.


I honestly think these 2 are the real deal and will get us where we want to be.
I can't pick.

Though I picked Jennings today, it could very well be rettig tomorrow. In fact a few days ago I thought rettig was the guy.

Truth be told, we have 2 guys who both can potentially be great. It's a good thing. This is what you want from position battles. Not "who sucks the least".
