Davidson Deac II

I read some articles on lisfranc, and best case scenario is he is out a minimum of six to eight weeks. But more likely 6-11 months. Probably out for the year, but I suppose we will learn more later.

I disagree. I think he has just as much a shot today as he did a week ago.

He is under contract. He should fully recover. So why would you think his career is over.

The problem comes if Baker is not a flop, but not great, ie he is somewhere in between. Then we have to decide whether we draft another qb (assuming we can get one we want), or resign Mayfield, or something else.

Depends on whether they are designated to return. And that was what I was referring to. Matt Corral suffers "significant" injury (panthers.com) But I looked up lisfranc, and it might be season ending. I was thinking of the attempt to bring Cam back from it, when they didn't put him on season ending IR for a while. But if its non operative, he could in theory come back in 8-10 weeks.

Sorry, quoted the wrong one .

And what is your flawed prediction?

Well, to keep Corral, even on IR, he has to be on the final 53. So my guess is that it will be Corral, Darnold and Mayfield, with PJ on the practice squad (if he can be on the PS). And then Corral goes to IR, and PJ gets called up if needed.

A team never knows how good it will be until the season starts. Preseason is more about getting a look at individuals than the team. Given our past results, I don't have a lot of hope, but maybe the combination of a new qb, and other new players, as well as some additions to the coaching staff will be enough to make us competitive this year.

I don't think we will go 0-3. For the last few years, our teams have done fairly well at the start of the season. 3-0 last year, 2-2 the year before. Its after we get past the first 3 or 4 games that we struggle.

Well, PJ doing a Sam Darnold impersonation.

Made some nice throws, nearly had a pick 6. Showed some mobility.

Ebron spent the last half of last year on IR, and no team seems interested this year. That might be why he is asking us to bring him back home. No other options.

Corral is looking better this game. That was probably a turnover, but not Corral's fault.

A fanbase overreacts? I thought that only happened to us.

PJ put that one in a perfect spot.

Maybe we have to vacate some of our fourth-place finishes.

I agree. I mean essentially that was what Brady had at New Orleans, although he wasn't offensive coordinator. Personally, I just never bought into the hype that he was some up-and-coming superstar. I mean maybe he will be a star eventually, but he should have had to prove it somewhere besides a college team loaded with NFL talent before becoming an OC for an NFL team.

Brady should have spent a few more years at LSU before becoming a NFL offensive coach. He had one year with a great collection of talent. He needed to show what he could do with an offense that wasn't clearly superior to every team they played.

Steve Smith would do it. Don't know if Mayfield would, but I might actually buy his jersey if he does.

He is probably not better than Brisset, but he might be better than Rosen. We need to stick Darnold out there in the fourth qtr with the first string offense so he can rack up yards and look good for a trade. lol

He should have been suspended longer. That being said, if Davis Mills continues to improve as he did at the end of last season, that could be an interesting game. Also, if Davis Mills becomes a solid qb, the Texans made out like a bandit on this deal. Got a qb, got rid of a problem child, and got a bunch of good draft picks.

To each his own, but Ian was better than Eric last season, not that Eric set the bar all that high. Of course, if Eric does get healthy again, he might be worth a look, but suitors aren't exactly lining up.

At his best, no doubt. Now, probably not. Not that Thomas is good, but Ebron was struggling last year, even before he went on IR.
