Ravens QB: Kyle Boller or Steve McNair?

The quarterback controversy in Baltimore is a little different than the ones in Arizona and Chicago, but make no mistake: There's a real question of whether Ravens coach Brian Billick should pick Kyle Boller or Steve McNair as his starter.

McNair was pulled for Boller in yesterday's win over the Cardinals, and although the reason was, ostensibly, McNair's groin injury, McNair said afterward that he could have played.

McNair then added: "It was the smart thing to do. We were up, and I think we wanted it to rest and heal. In this league, it takes two good quarterbacks to go where you want to go."
I'm not really sure why you need two good quarterbacks -- I guess McNair thinks the Colts won the Super Bowl last year because they had both Peyton Manning and Jim Sorgi? -- but Billick seems to have a lot of faith in Boller. I think McNair is the better quarterback of the two, but I also think there's a good chance that Boller will keep getting playing time, even if McNair is 100 percent healthy.
