PFF video on Gries first start. Surprise!

They made a really good point towards the end of the video. Basically stating that if Grier doesn't have a decent game that shows he can maybe develop into something, he may very well not be in the roster next year. 

To that, really two games isn't enough to see what he's got. I agree with most of what they said, he did look uncomfortable and apparently had 52 drop backs. That's insane for a rookie that you're trying to ease in. Then DJ moore going down definitely didn't help and well the O-line losing a lot of the battles, the special teams not stopping Hines and having to work from behind. No I am not making excuses for the kid, just a lot things stacked against him and him being very uncomfortable in there. First game jitters I suppose. Still, small sample size. We'll see what happens this Sunday. 

 

We'll see what he does come Sunday.

He's on a cheap rookie contract. He'll get a chance to earn a roster spot with the new staff.

He may not make the final roster next season, but he is definitely going to camp with the team.

edit: I do think he'll be on the roster next season, but a lot depends on the new coach, what they do with Cam, what we pick up in the draft and FA etc.  Allen and Grier could both be on another team next year.

Allen is much better and will/should be the backup.  I said when he was drafted he wouldn’t last two years here.

Grier just isn't a pro QB.

[BIGH2001]

Relax guys. Grier is being developed in the traditional sense.

I don't know why anyone would be particularly invested in either Grier or Allen, they both look like backups

That's the point. If they are back up worthy then the search for a back up, a decent one is done.

Why do we have to make a decision now? Both he and Allen will be on the team next year with Cam or if Cam's not healthy, another QB. They can always cut somebody during or at the end of camp/preseason.

He played one game, and he is on the worst team in the NFL.  And yes, we are currently the worst team in the league.

Currently the standings say there are at least 7 worse teams by record. Are we going by your personal subjective feelings or the objective measures of record/point differential that most people use?
