Vote for the 2012 Mastodon Quarterback of the Year

Ah, quarterback. The dream of every young football aficionado. The star of the team. The star of the sporting world. There's no position bigger than it. Some of the world's all-time greatest athletes have passed through the position. Guys like Joe Montana, Tom Brady and Johnny Unitas. There's never just one guy vying for the position. The dimes they place in the hands of their must trusted teammates. That is only one trait of a quarterback. They also have pocket presence, the ability to scramble, the skill of reading defenses, accuracy, deep throws, leading a team down the field in about thirty-one seconds when necessary. They are electrifying and incredible. Here are your nominees for the 2012 Mastodon Quarterback of the Year:


Alex Bahnan. He was the team's starting quarterback. First string. Number one guy. He completed 64.9% percent of his passes over the season, going 144 for 222. His 1,813 yards led the team's passers with a long of 98. He threw for 28 touchdowns with only 4 interceptions in the process. His passer rating was an astounding 122.2.

Kyle Splaine. It's always great to have an outstanding backup quarterback. Kyle had all the qualities of a true starter and he actually did start from time to time. His completion percentage was at 62.2% behind completing 51 of 82. He threw for 471 yards and 8 touchdowns, with only 5 picks. His passer rating was a highly respectable 84.9.

Dave Mello. He was never one to throw, but he was more of a rushing, wildcat quarterback. He had the highest completion percentage at 92.3% with 12 of 13 completed. He threw for 129 yards, but no touchdowns or picks. However, when rushing at QB, he went for 324 yards and three touchdowns. His QBR was 158.3, a perfect score, when factoring in rushing yards.
