Yeah, I already said that if Shrader is the starting QB in game one, he will have had to outplay Tommy by a clear and significant margin.  Otherwise, I look at Dino's track record up to this point, and what I see is that he far more willing to play young guys on defense than he is on offense.

That's why I feel almost certain that Tommy will start game one, and his future will be decided by his on-field performance.  If we are trailing by a couple scores in any of these early games and Shrader engineers a comeback win, he's likely to win the job.

Although I do note that Tommy did that his freshman year (engineer a comeback win) when Dungey was not throwing the ball well at all, but then the next week Dungey got the start and produced a terrific game.  But I think with Tommy's history, coming off a 1 win season, if he has a crap game or two, Dino's going with one of the other guys.  (We have 4 QBs with starting experience now!)
