Probably just need to go ahead and cut Grier

[Carl Spackler]

I’ve watched Clausen and Weinke and Fasani and Matt Lytle play QB. Grier was bad. But he’s still better than them. 
 

EDIT: maybe not Weinke, because I saw him throw for 422 yards and three picks. But Grier is nowhere near as pathetic as Fasani or Clausen. His game last week was better than anything either of those guys ever did tbh.

But it doesn’t really matter, he and Baby Goat are unlikely to be here next year.

Weinke was way better than Grier today.  But, yeah, the rest were atrocious.

I corrected myself on Weinke. Weinke was kinda like Allen honestly.

He's on a dirt cheap mid-round rookie contract. He looked unbelievably awful today, but there's no reason not to bring him to camp next year to let a new staff evaluate him. But, if I'm being honest, no I do not expect him to be on the roster next season. Honestly not even sure he's worth a practice squad spot but we'll see.

Yup, but unlike Allen, Weinke was supposed to be our franchise QB.  Yikes!

Trevor Lawrence will be a Panther. Will he succeed? Depends on the coach, Hurney leaving and the line and defense.

Clausen stuck around a few seasons. Grier will not. And Fasani could at least run. But you are right Grier has him in the passing department, just barely

I like his ability to escape the rush and he buys time in the pocket well. He’s mobile, which is a must with this sieve line. But he’s not accurate enough and couldn’t hold up for a game and a half without getting hurt. Hope he gets better, but it doesn’t matter much. He wasn’t drafted to be the future and he won’t be.

Sticking around a few seasons does not make someone better. Clausen was the 47th pick. Didn’t matter what he did, he wasn’t getting cut after one season. Grier actually ran better than Fasani too. But it’s irrelevant.

Just another Hurney fug up.

The team collectively mailed it in weeks ago and really did him no favors throwing him in to this dumpster fire the last two games. 
 

however he, just like, Allen need to work on this staring down the primary receiver they commonly do

We were at camp every day. Our analysis was simple: Kyle Allen was the clear number two quarterback. And it wasn’t even close. And that’s exactly how it played out.

Kyle is a solid NFL back up. Will has demonstrated very little value to this point. And they both played behind a dogshit OL. They both had McCaffrey at their disposal. 

I’m not ready to cut anybody, but I’m telling you right now it feels like a bad pick. It felt that way in August. He was that bad.

Not making excuses, but Grier had the following conditions:

• Samuel was his #1 WR
• He had the offensive line in front of him
• They had a huge lead and could pin their ears back.
• They were out to deny CMC, Grier's only offensive weapon.
• It was raining.

While I agree that he sucked, I wont say what he can do when these things are not working against him

It's a bummer bc it was a solid risk to take in theory but this franchise doesn't seem to ever hit on the risky QBs (Cam was a no brainer, don't @ me). We should probably play it safe and trade down every year like the Patriots and adjust our philosophy accordingly if we wanna do better.
