ForJimmy

Open your mind. If you REALLY wanted to go against the grain you would want Jimmy Clausen back as our QB. He was fine. It wasn’t his fault, his teammates weren’t as good as they needed to be. He was a good starting QB. Stop being so hung up on one below average player that only had one forgettable season for this franchise and move on because it looks like this team is.

Shame on this mob for wanting a better QB for their team. At least the front office is agreeing with us and not random Teddy Fanboys.

WFT makes sense. They have a potentially elite defense and are drafting to low to get a top QB. Teddy and Mond or Newman would be good for them.

Agreed. Fields has Watson potential.

DEs aren’t going to get more tackles than LB/SS. Young was great at keeping QBs contained and adding pressure. I’m not saying Chinn didn’t deserve it, but DEs kind of get the QB treatment for these awards. Sacks/pressures get more attention that tackles. Regardless I’m glad we have Chinn and love hearing about him learning under Luke. We have Burns as our pass rushing specialist so it’s really win win.

I’m not too concerned about his arm, but more about how he can handle pressure especially when there is no pocket. Is he quick enough to roll out and make his reads/throws while avoiding pressure? Does he make good decisions under pressure? These are mostly unknowns to me. If he can be as quick as even a Kurt Cousins he might be ok. I’ve seen Cousins avoid sacks and even run for a first. It just requires a lot more recognition and awareness for a QB who is limited athletically like Jones is.

Nah that’s a professional sports writer. What could be possibly know about sports?

It’s getting painfully desperate... Show me a source stating he won’t be cut or traded? Show me something stating he is a capable starter? Why hasn’t the GM came in and stated Teddy is our starter to kill these rumors? It can’t be a report or link to a journalist either. You criticize every report we link up here, yet you have no concrete data that backs what you are saying.

You have to keep evaluating the QB position until you have a guy that can get you into the playoffs and win a Super Bowl. Straight from the owner’s mouth. If Teddy was that guy, this wouldn’t have to be said. Other owners and staff don’t talk about their starting QBs this way. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/30853889/sources-carolina-panthers-offered-no-8-pick-teddy-bridgewater-matthew-stafford%3fplatform=amp We offered our first and Teddy for Stafford, it’s been reported and never disputed. https://www.google.com/amp/s/pantherswire.usatoday.com/2021/03/01/49ers-called-panthers-teddy-bridgewater-trade-talks/amp/ Niners calling inquiring about Teddy after Lynch stated they need some insurance for Jimmy G. I see you have dug in on this Teddy is a good starter in the NFL and made it difficult the get out of the spot you are in by denying and arguing with numerous people on here. It’s no secret our staff wants to upgrade him and will get rid of players and picks to do so (for Watson or a higher pick in the draft).

Exaggeration is something most sports fans do. How many “once in a generation” prospects have you heard about in your life. It gets amplified for the QB position like everything else. The staff has spoken pretty clearly about Teddy and I don’t see us coming back from that. Teddy was a risky FA that looked solid in a limited window with a ton of talent around him in NO. We gambled (a little) on him and it didn’t work out. There is a reason teams are not blowing up our phones to trade for him. The Niners are “interested” because there starter always gets hurt and they want a solid backup for insurance. I personally wouldn’t mind him starting while we groomed a Fields or Lance, but I don’t know if that’s possible anymore.

Norwell fits the Rhule mold better than Turner right now. Hard worker, practices hard overachiever kind of player.

Why does this guy like Teddy so much? Does the Huddle over exaggerate how bad Teddy is? Yes, of course. Should fans be satisfied with Teddy as their starting QB? No, of course not. He is a good backup who can step in and win some games by playing it safe. Our Owner, GM, and Head Coach have all hinted at upgrading our QB position. I’ll be the first to admit I thought he had potential in Joe Brady’s offense with our weapons last year before the season started and several games in. I saw enough to know he isn’t the answer...

I’m worried the Dolphins will trade for Watson and the Texans will use the number 3 pick to select Fields. Making it Lawrence, Wilson, and Fields at 1, 2, and 3 with Watson gone and a very little chance Lance makes it to us...

This is what I’ve been trying to say. He was also missing some players and playing hurt against Alabama. I hope he falls and we are able to get him. Seems to check all the boxes, great arm, athletic enough to extend plays, no major injuries, big frame to take NFL hits, no off field issues, always seems classy on his interviews and has only a couple losses. People are ignoring his 2019 season where COVID didn’t mess everything up. He has the ability to be a Watson type player. I keep hearing the Ohio St QB reasoning too which I’m not buying. LSU before Burrow had what Matt Flynn and Russell? Clemson had no QBs before Watson that made it great in the NFL. Texas Tech ran a “college offense” that pad stats and had no star NFL QBs and Mahomes turned out pretty good...

I like Fields. He looked great in 2019, struggled in a couple games where his players and staff were affected by COVID.

Herbert’s last 3 were 2 Passing TDs and 1 INT against lesser competition. Not saying we just draft Mond, but we should definitely do our homework on him.

The Raiders actually have a solid line. Not a fan of Russ, but come on man.... Carr is no where near him when it comes to playing the QB position. Gruden and Russ would be two huge egos for one team to juggle though...

Zack’s face is too punchable, I’ll take Fields or Lance though.

I suppose we can give them Teddy for a 2nd or 3rd....

If we some how get Watson and they get Russ, it will make for some nice rivalry games.

They need to trade Kamara, Lattimore, Cam Jordan, Mike Thomas, and 3 first round picks.

The fear is that Jones could be similar to a Greg McLeroy or AJ McCarron because he had possibly even better talent then they did. He should be better than them, but anything close to that doesn’t warrant a first round pick. I think if he goes to the right team he can be a solid QB. I just don’t think we are that team at this moment.

I wouldn’t mind him here for cheap. Luke can help him train and he can’t be worse than Whitehead. Special teams/backup at worst.
