Looks like it’s going to be a FULL SEND boys on quarterback because Tepper has realized teddy ain’t it.. and theirs a reason why they made teddy’s contract cutable and before you guys start saying Wilson go look at the full game on YouTube of him playing against Coastal Carolina

Eh, one game isn’t going to make me not want him. Same thing with Lance or Fields. I would still take all 3 in a heartbeat.

Also Wilson didn't play bad at all that game. His receivers dropped a ton of passes, his line didn't block, and he was still within a yard of winning. 

BYU as a whole played bad, but Wilson was one of the few who didn't.

I don't think this is some grand pronouncement.  Very few players should be comfortable with their job security on a 4-10 team, and everything in the NFL begins with the Quarterback.

Outside of CMC, Robby, DJ, Moton (who we better keep), Burns, Chinn, Brown, & Shaq (while you might not agree with the contract, he has been good and he definitely is in the team plans next year), there is no one on the team that should be automatically slotted as a starter.

I like Teddy, but objectively he has regressed since that knee tweak.  Right now it's hard to see a wide gap in play between Teddy and what we had last year with a 2nd-year UDFA in Kyle Allen.

It's not conducive to winning football.

I don't know if the draft is the best option given our other needs (unless there is a guy they feel confident in outside of Trevor Lawrence cause we ain't getting him), but we can't go into next year IMO with Teddy as the unquestioned starter.

That being said, while I don't think Teddy can get us to a Super Bowl, he's probably going to be on the team next year, and with a decent chance of starting.

I do honestly believe had CMC been healthy all year, we are closer to 8-8 than not (although it's better for us long-term to have a higher draft pick this year).

So the question becomes, should we continue to add to the team with Teddy or another FA QB, or go for broke and draft what we hope will be another franchise QB.  

I do believe Teddy can get a team to 10-11 wins in the right circumstances.  A whiff on a QB that you spend top 5 draft capital on can set you back years.

It is a tough decision.  And as fans, there are a million opinions.  All we can do is hope Rhule, Tepper, and whoever else can get it right.

Inside sources say tepper is demanding we trade up for Lawrence.

You have to have a willing partner to do so.  

Lawrence would be amazing for this franchise (and any other) from not only a football standpoint but it would be a marketing coup for Tepper with the Clemson ties.

Jacksonville is not blind to this, either.  If I'm the owner of the Jags (Shahid Khan), I'm threatening to fire anyone who jeopardizes the Jaguars tank the last 2 games.

Unfortunately, I don't believe even with Tepper's money he is going to be able to work this deal

Jags haven't had any luck as QB in the draft for the past... ever, why would that start now?

I'm 100% positive they will give it another shot with Lawrence.

Seriously, if the Panthers were in the same situation as the Jaguars, would you consider any trade to not draft Lawrence?  I don't think I would.

What would KC trade Mahomes for right now?  There is no amount.

If Lawrence has a chance to be that good, there simply is no justification from a football standpoint.

And given where they are as a franchise, they need the spark of drafting a guy like Lawrence more than draft picks.

I really do hope the Panthers inquire about trading up for Lawrence, I just honestly don't see any scenario where the Jaguars even consider trading the pick, much less considering what it would take in terms of draft capital to do so and how much it could potentially handcuff the Panthers going forward.

    • Yeah, I'm serious. You take all of the first year jitters any rookie QB starting will face. Then you put him behind an inept line, give him a group of WRs that features a 32-33 year old slot receiver as their only reliable guy and use him as WR1, no TEs to speak of, pay big bucks for an undersized and over-touted RB that isn't out competing practice squad players AND THEN pair it up with a dysfunctional owner/HC/OC combo that keeps running the same play concept again and again and again. (And coaches that were already at each other's backs with daggers don't develop young QBs... heck it's the hardest skill ever for any HC.. Jon Gruden never could do it and there's a case to be made that Belichick never did it (the QB developing the coach possibly there)). Yeah, he was bad, legendarily bad, but he was in possibly the worst environment imaginable for a rookie QB. You can take away some mechanics issues that should have been worked on and still need to be worked on, but everything else was tainted by that environment.  I wasn't impressed by him in the least for anything except for his character and willingness to go back out there and just get killed again and again. At least he wasn't running away on every play, little girly screams lifting to the cheap seats, like Pickles was.  Will he be good this year? Honestly, the odds are stacked against him. They are on every young QB in the league, and he had more piled against him. Maybe Canales can fix him and the team. I sure hope so. If not, it's back to the drawing board and we'll have wasted two seasons. I really don't want that to happen.

    • All this talk of the supporting cast and coaching being the culprits of our struggles is just sounding like the rationalizations of Sam Darnold's time with the Jets. I'm ready to see the results and know what we have. Enough talk. Thank goodness June is finally upon us.
