If Matt Rhule fails, it will be decisions like this that doom him.

I am in no way saying Grier was "good", but he was head and shoulders above PJ based on this preseason.  I hope this is just the precursor to us bringing in a vet backup.  Someone who can throw the ball to our guys and not beat us if we need a game or two.

We have two QB3's on our roster. Deciding between the two turds is not going to doom our Coach.

Let's wait for our new GM to get us some better backup QB competition before we start claiming the sky is falling.

the new braintrust just passed on Menshew and he went for a bag of Doritos.   

seems pretty clear they don't want anything but Sam Darnold IMO.

Nah, if Sam is a bust he will get one more shot.  I feel Tepper likes him too much to throw in the towel.  He knows how incredibly hard it is to find a qb in the NFL.

 

If anything the Fields pick will add way more weight around his neck than trading for Sam

Honestly if Tepper's evaluation of his HC / GM rests on their ability to find a franchise QB then he's a moronic owner who has no business owning a team.

What you want to see if the team improving year on year. We've added quality starters / depth to the 2020 squad and lost nothing in FA. Let's see where that leads us in 2021.

IF Darnold fails then we simply go again at QB next year - they won't rest on their laurels until they find a guy capable of leading this team.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
