top dawg

I'm pretty sure I've seen all that before.

Uh, that's not what set Tepper off. Tepper was really really "extra" with Fowler. That was the worst part of the presser.

It's not exactly a secret that he's our only viable option at the moment, so I'd say that the case is very much open, even if it's by default.

We have our LT! It is so great to be able to say that. Really! It's been too much of a long time coming.

Yep. Can't blame them for our offensive malaise.

No. They shouldn't. You think that Tepper isn't going to mandate that we be a part of the Lamar Jackson sweepstakes?

I will give you this, if for some reason Corral can't get on the field by TC due to the injury, he won't get a legit shot. But that's the only reason (other than having another complete dumbass as a coach).

Say whatever you want. We all know that you talk out your ass all the time.

I don't believe anyone is or ever was concerned about Baker starting over Corral--no one serious. Once Baker was signed, it was a done deal. I also don't believe that anyone is concerned with drafting a QB. I halfway expect it. My point is that Corral will get just as much of an opportunity as anyone that we draft, though some Huddlers just assume that he won't. I'm saying that any coach worth his weight in gold is going to let Corral legitimately compete.

It doesn't matter. This isn't about the vet, who will more than likely be a bridge, it's about Corral being on equal footing with anyone that we may draft.

He may not, but it will be because a rookie has beaten him out. I think that it's presumptuous to think a rookie will simply win the job. I'm not saying that a rookie won't win the job, but I don't believe that any sensible coach will hand it to him without giving Corral a legit shot. I just don't see it. Corral has enough talent to compete with anyone drafted. That's just the way that I see it.

In the scenario where we don't acquire a vet and presume to go with a rookie or Corral. You can presume that some rookie can simply beat Corral out if you like, butvI'm not going to do that. I think that any sensible coach will actually have a genuine competition.

You would be a good poster if your takes and posts didn't cater to the Amen Corner. So, I can't take anything that you take seriously either. Just being honest.

Oh, because you stated it...Come on, dude.

All that means is that he was a developmental prospect, which I said from the very beginning. Moreover, you can't get caught up in the dynamics of a particular draft. Every team has a draft board, needs and desires.

The fact is, it's pretty much ignorant Huddlers who've given up on Corral. The experts will at least consider the totality of the context before spewing opinions.

I'll take Smitty's opinion before yours. End of story.

He should've been the guy we traded for when we gave up a whack haul to the Jets for Darnold.

Not true. Go back and read reports.

What's hilarious is the continued psuedo QB analysis by football message board members.

Sounds like B.S. It doesn't square with reports. Corral was impressive. The Panthers moved on Mayfield when the price was right. They were talking with the Browns earlier in the offseason. The trade didn't have anything directly to do with Corral. You Baker Boys need to stop. You overlooked Corral for all intents and purposes, just like idiotic Matt Rhule who put Corral in a terribe situation---of course Corral got hurt behind turnstiles that were nothing but camp bodies. Corral's release and arm strength were evident from the moment that he stepped on the field back in May. Even during TC, there was still a buzz surrounding the kid. Just like the OP said, as well as others, including Smitty in so many words, the plan was never to start him this year. “So Matt Corral impressin’ me,” he went on to add. “Man, I’m just an outta shape, old football player that used to play, right? But at the end of the day, I know ball. And I know a good player when I see him just like I know a bad player when I see him. Matt Corral is about a year or two away from being the starting quarterback for this Carolina Panthers team. The boy has it. He can play. But he needs to learn.” Excuse me if I take 89's word over y'all Baker Boys'. Corral will rightfully get his chance. Rhule won't stop it, and a Fitterer firing won't stop it either.

With the QBs we have on the roster...I will have to see the miracle come true before my eyes. No shame to hope though.

The more, the merrier. Let's see what happens in a legit competition. Discount Corral at your own peril. That's all I have to say.

I just hope he calms himself down and stops playing so frenetically. If he could just stop throwing interceptions, he might positively distinguish himself. He has no excuses; he has been here long enough to show whether he belongs in this league or not. Good luck to him.

After seeing this, I definitely believe that Robbie is going to be traded. TMJ will finally get some real time.
