Twitter will occasionally have interesting conversations develop from the most random of starts. Earlier today, NFL.com's Dan Hanzus called for a moment of silence for Brodie Croyle. There has been no news about Croyle, as he retired three years ago, and there is no indication he died, but I suppose that is neither here nor there.
Whatever the case, the Croyle tweet was followed by NFL.com's Dave Dameshek opening the floor for discussion of the worst quarterback committees in recent memory.

His tweet was then followed by Gregg Rosenthal offering up the San Francisco 49ers dynamic group of quarterbacks in 2005.
