Absolutely. There should be no question here. If your QB breaks down, who gives you a better chance...sammy of Cam? who do you want more on the sidelines during the game? Sam or Cam? Who will do a better job of getting players and fans charged up? Sam or Cam? If Corral needs extra time and needs a bridge before he starts (which I don't think is the case) who do you want on that field and helping him grow into it? Sam or Cam? In fact I'd rather have Cam than any other available options out there. Cam wasn't just the ultimate player and competitor, he was and is the ultimate teammate.

Same here. I mean the first couple things I noticed about him was that quick accurate throw and how smooth he was with play action stuff...and then there's the scrambling and rushing. Guy looks like he's got it all. But then the more I watched his games and saw how he was with his guys in the huddle and on the sidelines, his demeanor and how they responded... he's got it. He's got them. I saw it with Jake, I definitely saw it with Cam from the first game I watched of his in the Iron Bowl. Being that guy who gets his teammates focused, in line when called for, and charged up is key. I didn't see that with Sammy or Teddy or any other QBs here in the last couple decades. A QB needs to not just pull the best out of himself and be a good player, he needs to pull the best out of the team around him and make them be better players and his character is what will cause people around him to respond too him, just like they did with Jake and Cam.

Not doing well probably had to do with dumb questions being asked and being tired of answering them. Each person asks the same question and you have to answer like its the first time you answered them. There were probably a lot of questions about his off field stuff which, when you've moved on, would have been hard to deal with being brought up over and over when all you want to do is talk football and how you are with the team.

Exactly the kind of stuff I was thinking in would see from both guys. Calm, focused, intelligent, and handled dumb questions well. You can tell these guys are ready for the big stage and they take their craft seriously.

Distraction for who? The fans? Screw 'em. Distraction for the team? No way. He plays whatever role he's needed for. If its a bridge, he'll be a bridge. If its as a mentor, he'll do that (its not like he's a fragile emo kid like Tannehill in TN). Fitt talked about him saying that he's a selfless leader, which could be a huge benefit for Corral. At the very least Cam would be a backup who would be great to have in the QB room, the lockerroom, in practice, and on the sidelines cheating everyone on and making everyone feel better about what they were doing. He spreads confidence, which is what this team needs. Last year, it was too far gone. This year, you bring him in at the beginning and he could really do some good. Hardly anyone think she could be the guy he was in 2015, but he can still compete on the field and he can still contribute of it.

I think that Corral has a good bit of that in him anyways, the leadership traits...especially vocal. But Cam takes it all to a level I don't think I've ever seen before. If Corral can catch even a little bit of that, I think he could be good for us.

Bring him in. He's not what he used to be on the field, but we need him on those sidelines at the very least and at the most, he can really help Corral along. He's got a lot to offer in a lot of ways...so much more than sammy.

it was Rhule's offense in that it was run they way he wanted it run. the problems were 1) he was coming from a world of checker games into a chess tournament full of grandmasters, 2) he left it in the hands of a guy with absolutely no experience running an offense at any level, and 3) a risk averse QB in year one and a QB scared of his own shadow in year two...both guys he chose out of the very limited scope of knowledge of NFL personnel he had. what could go wrong?

would have been really useful last year getting the QBs ready for running for their lives. hopefully this year will be better.

Darnold has a chip on his shoulder too, but when he looked in the mirror and saw it he got scared and ran into a wall.

as long as their QB drills consist of more than throwing the ball into a bucket i'm ok.

i hope so. wouldn't mind us being a situation where we can get a better HC, but aside from him and Snow i think we've got the potential for something pretty good here.

bye week. which will be changed in the annals of history to "bye bye week"

they spend all offseason coming up with a plan and it works....for a few games, and then everyone adapts to what we do and we sit there the rest of the season trying to figure out what happened and unable to adjust to everyone else's adjusting. This happens on both sides of the ball. Hopefully this changes on offense with MacAdoo, but I have very little reason to think Snow figures it out unless he relies heavily on Wilks and some of the other experienced coaches on defense for guidance.

the problem is we start out hot for 3-4 games and get everyone's hopes up and then....

We're not. It's just a game....and I'm tired of losing it.

I don't like him, but I'd rather win with a coach I didn't like than lose with a coach I did like. I've had enough losing.

Over Rhule... Ummm... Yes. Please yes. Unless we have to trade for him.

So we'd have to wait until 2025 to get him? Yikes. I've only got so much time on this earth. I should hope we'd love quicker than that, but who knows.....Tepper might be a long term dumbass where Rhule is concerned.

What is/has/will it been/be replaced with?

I'm not clicking.

The more I think about it the more I lean towards "no thanks". Doesn't live up to the hype or price tag as far as actual performance is concerned.

And just in case anyone wasn't paying attention, in addition to getting a local guy who has been through the ringer and still keeps pushing, we'd be getting a player capable of this : Definitely worth watching and even more worth bringing in.

Wow. Bring him home. Find a way and bring him home.
