Grier will likely be cut with the last group

While we at it...let PJ get a crack with the ones, give Sam some more time to.... whatever he needed this week. 

The 3rd preseason game, a whole half of Darnold...

But that line needs to be addressed now, starting 5 should be ready by next week or have a better ideal of who and where

I’m not opposed to that. Let them all get a crack with the 1s,2s,3s. I’m not against anyone of them. I just don’t want people to come to conclusion of the guys future with Martez Ivey at LT and Giovanni Ricci catching the ball.

I'm not going to put the last nail in the coffin on Grier until I see him play with the twos. He deserves his day in the sun.

Agreed.  He looked better today than last we saw of him...in 2019.  PJ also looked improved from last year...mostly better decision making which is great.  Those 3rd string guys were so bad.  I did not see every play, I have a 3 year old, but what I saw he was mostly accurate and the receivers dropped a lot.  He went 6/10 and from what I saw good decision making.  I saw two drops, which would have made his stat line 8/10.  I did see the throw on 3rd down go over the guys head.  I thought he played a bit tepid overall. 

I think people saying he's the worst backup QB in the league are out of their damn minds.  Compared to his play today, I've seen worse.....this week.

I don’t think so. PJ took his reps with the 2s while Grier had to take his reps with the 3s.

Grier had somebody in his face every play. Ivey was is LT and Monteiro was his RT.

Giovanni Ricci was also his only receiver getting open. PJ had Marshall and Moore.

Brady also ran the ball 7 times and passed it 21 when PJ was in. He only threw the ball 10 times and ran it 12 times with Grier.

Let Grier take his reps with the 2s next week and see if we have the same opinion.

PJ’s two biggest plays were a byproduct of the play breaking down because he was using his feet.  
 

I think PJ has Tyrod Taylor potential.  I’ve just never seen anything from Grier.

Hopefully they'll cut a few of these 4th string WR's by next week so we can actually gauge if it's a qb or O-line problem, narrow it down a little bit.

I haven't seen enough to say either is better than the other. 

Today's playcalling certainly didn't help.

Both.

I can't see how they justify keeping Grier around at this point. They will need him for the third preseason game, and PERHAPS put him on the practice squad to run the scout team. Other than that, I think PJ showed today he is light years ahead of Grier. 

This aged well

Yep.

 

Impressed with Grier tonight. Didn't know he had it in him, glad he does.

[Wolfcop]

Yeah, judging by tonight, the #2 QB job is far from being decided. 

[NAS]

I think we have to keep both Grier and PJ

If we're honest the #2 QB job is horrifying, but to be fair to the coaching staff they're trying to work out the #1 QB first. 

[Shocker]

If Darnold goes down the season is basically over…this doesn't bother Coach TempleBaylor at all?

It’s like carrying another Joey Slye.  Does having two Syles  help you? 

[Carl Spackler]

Could see us bringing in RG3. No other current Baylor/Temple FA QBs.
