B-more bound... hahaha.

Just hope he doesn't get any "2000 SB flashbacks" during training camp.

If Collins is headed to Baltimore, I have a feeling Deluxe is going into hiding again. That would be a horrible signing. May as well stick with Boller if they're even thinking about going with Collins. At least Boller already knows the system (and I use the word knows loosely) and he's alot younger than Collins.

I think in the end they are sticking with Boller. They just want to try and

a: get him some veteren leadership, and
b: try to challange him for the starting spot

Can't hurt, really. At the very least, Collins would give the Ravens a solid backup. And personally, I could see him winning a training camp battle.

As a backup who'd sign for peanuts, Collins is a nice fit. Even if it's just to push Boller, I suppose that would be something positive. I just don't think he's what they need in a starting quarterback. The guy is no better than Boller at this point and a step backwards due to his age. Though, Collins in a backup role would be nice for depth, but little else.

maybe this should have been titled "Kerry Collins Cut...For Real This Time"

I actually disagree with you guys. Collins > Boller any day. Boller's had what? 2 maybe 3 good games in his career. Collins is a SB QB.

Rrrrrrrraidas eyeing Culpepper? Methinks.

So is Trent Dilfer.

I REALLY hate this argument... going to the SB does not make you infallible.

Yeah Trent Dilfer is better than Boller as well.

Guess that means the Raiders are gunning for Culpepper...Collins will find a job somewhere. If he goes to Baltimore, that's not bad. Like everyone said, he'd be a really solid backup if Boller continues to struggle and will maybe push him to be better.
