Jason Plummer
Jason Steven "Jake (The Snake)" Plummer (born December 19, 1974 in Boise, Idaho) is an American football player who starts at quarterback for the Denver Broncos. He went to Arizona State University as a four-year starter. he is best known for his uncanny ability to complete fourth-quarter comebacks and elusiveness, and is thus nicknamed Jake the Snake.
Jake Plummer went to high school at Capital High School in Boise. An All-American there, he passed for 6,097 yards and 68 touchdowns, completing 69 percent of his passes. In addition, he also ran for over 600 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground.
In 1993, Plummer enrolled at Arizona State, where he became the first true freshman to start at quarterback since 1984. As a starter, he compiled a 15-8 record in Sun Devil Stadium. Plummer is the school's all-time leader in pass completions, passing attempts, and passing yards, and his 65 career touchdown passes in college are third all-time in Pac-10 conference history. One of his most notable games as an ASU player was in 1996 when he led the team to a 19-0 victory of defending national champ Nebraska; he was 20-26 for almost 300 yards in that game.
NFL career
Drafted in 1997 by the Arizona Cardinals, Plummer started that season as the third-string QB behind Kent Graham and Stoney Case, but made his first career start in Week 7 of the season against the Philadelphia Eagles. That season, he set rookie records for the Cards in passing (159 of 296; 53 percent) with 15 touchdown passes and 15 interceptions. In only his fourth NFL start, he set an NFL rookie record with 388 passing yards against the New York Giants, breaking Troy Aikman's mark of 379 established against the Cardinals in 1989.
The year 1998 was a Pro Bowl season for Plummer. Second in the NFC to Green Bay's Brett Favre in passing marks all year, he was named an alternate for the Pro Bowl, partly due to an improbable comeback that he engineered against the Dallas Cowboys on November 15, 1998. With his team down 28-0 at halftime, Plummer passed for 314 yards in the second half (465 total yards) to bring his team back to within 35-28. His team lost, but it is still considered one of the greatest comeback efforts in NFL history.
The year 1999 was full of injury for Jake Plummer. He suffered a sprained thumb in the second preseason game of the season, a broken finger midway through it, and hip and groin problems that bothered him all season, which contributed to a bad 50.8 passer rating. It was his worst season (2,111 yards passing, 24 picks) and one he would rather forget.
In 2000, Plummer continued his passing woes from the 1999 season, having slightly better numbers (2,946 yards, 19 interceptions, 66.0 quarterback rating), and reached 10,000 career passing yards in only his 47th career start. Part of the reason for his two bad seasons were the fact that the Cardinals finished below .500 both seasons.
The year 2001 just happened to be Plummer's best season in the NFL at that point in his career. He was one of two quarterbacks to take every snap for his team (Kerry Collins was the other), and he passed for over 3,000 yards. He had a stretch of 142 consective pass attempts without throwing an interception until January 6, 2002, when he threw an interception to a Washington Redskins player. He led the NFL in fourth-quarter passing yards in 2001.
Plummer's last season with the Cardinals was in 2002. Again, his passing marks were rather mediocre (53.6 passer rating, almost 3,000 yards), but he passed the 15,000 yard passing yards mark for his career against the San Diego Chargers on September 22.
Plummer signed as a free agent with the Denver Broncos, replacing Brian Griese as the starting quarterback, and under coach Mike Shanahan had his best season ever as an NFL quarterback. he finished the season with a career high 91.2 rating. He had the longest run by a Broncos QB on Monday Night Football, 40 yards against the Oakland Raiders.
In his third year playing for Denver he went 227 attempts without any interceptions which gave him the new nickname Jake No Mistake[http://www.fftoolbox.com/2005/week09/studs.cfm] or No Mistake Jake rhyming with his older more well known nickname Jake the Snake
