Jake II is a good comparison. I'm hoping he can develop like a Jay Cutler and just be enough for us to win games. 

But who knows. Football is one of the hardest sports to predict RN.

“jake type player” isn’t good enough to win Super Bowls anymore

I am going to be optimistic here and think Gase is not just QB poison,  but poison to the whole team.  They really gave Darnold 0 chance to succeed.

They win every once in a blue moon, usually aided by an unbelievable defense.

I think he has a career year with us but ultimately isn’t anything. He’s gonna continue to make boneheaded picks at maddening times. I said in the other thread that the coaches need to take all the pressure off of him. The Jets started him right away and put all the pressure on him to play hero ball and he failed spectacularly. 
 

If we end up drafting Lance or fields if they fall all bets are off. I could see Fields starting right away and I could see Lance coming in towards the end of the season. One thing about both of those qbs is they protect the football. Sam Darnold does not.

Implicit to your remark is that you aren’t building a consistent winner with this approach

i honestly can’t even remember the last time a guts and glory team even won a super bowl in an isolated fashion 

It doesn’t work anymore, and yet, it’s what we’re hoping to build here

Consistent game winner or consistent Super Bowl winner?

The former we can build with a "Jake type QB" the latter is HIGHLY unlikely. 

I have no idea what we are hoping to build here. I am not sure anyone outside of the organization has any idea what we are doing at this point.

Really there has only been 1 consistent SB winner the las 20 years. Not likely to happen again
