Trubisky? Rosen? Bortles? Gabbert? Locker? EJ?  Ponder? 

I mean what we attempted with Sam is unique.   No one is snatching up the really bad busted QBs and rolling with them right away. 

Seems like the path Young and them took still is in play.  Got to earn your way back to a chance.  

making Sam the dude seems like a pretty self inflicted mistake that a front office shouldn’t make IMO.  Got no issue with bringing a someone like him in to an org.  But you have to actually see if you can fix them first.   

All those situation had a legit starter or at least a starting option right?? Did we have that?? 

Context..

Favre and Young are outliers, I can name 5 other QBs for every Favre or Young.

 

I was right when I compared him to Josh Rosen. They just suck no matter the circumstances, no sugarcoating it.

The point was that it has happened.. I can come up with outlier for anything...

Tannahill, Brees , Warner with the Giants, Delhome with the saints.. 

Alot QB have gotten different scenery and produced at a new team...

The point of acting like it a unheard of plan is false..

Huh?  

no team snatched any of them up after they busted hard with the team that drafted them….and then attempted to make them the man immediately after.  You said the second chances now happen quicker….unlike in the era of all the other guys that also weren’t comps.

none of those guys stunk the league up for 3 straight years…and were then picked up to be the man right away somewhere else though.

How many criteria  are you going to come up with to make a point .

Does it have to be on every 3rd sunday in August on a leap year for it to be similar situation??

When you have to go as deep as well this guy didn't start right away or he had to do it for 3 years and it had to happen every 4th sunday in a month..

Your point isn't made..

Again agree to disagree..

You can believe what you want.. 

Facts are it has happened before it wasn't a outbound plan and so far it hasn't worked for us.  

Whelp Hopefully it works next time we try to resurrect a player.. Like many other teams have done in the past..

I choose to believe the Saints acquiring Brees isn’t similar to us making Sam the man.

Cool .. I choose to believe getting a player coming off a major injury to his throwing arm was a risk just as much as finding out if a once thought of top 5 talented pick could be developed with better coaching in a different situation.. Both are similar risk..

You can have your opinion and I can have mine...

I'm going to have to disagree with the whole "we need to fix the offensive line before we go after a franchise QB excuse "......cause a good competent QB with mobility can make an awful Oline look somewhat decent.  Just look at the titans and ravens who are both 5-2 with 3 less allowed sacks than the panthers. Both teams have been playing pretty well especially Baltimore considering all the injuries on defense.  Both teams possess a confident QB who can extend plays. Yes a good offensive line is important especially if you want to control the clock but I'm just saying if you have a QB like Watson who I think is better than Lamar and tannehill could definitely improve our offensive line so to speak

      NFL Free Agency

      With Schoen and Dan Morgan being tight I’d figure we knew this was coming and since he is released, Dan didn’t bite.    But, a quick search says this is at least 80% cap related. They have No cap space and save 8 or 9 million with releasing him.  He has been a captain his entire time there. 145 tackles this year.  They are picking 5th with a new staff and looking at Styles. Hitting that age 30 season and had a disc issue last year (meaning 2024) that did not require surgery.  I haven’t really watched him play but he activated the antennae.

      Did someone say "hybrid" player?

      OK, we are letting our top RB go.  We have Chuba, Etienne, and Brooks.  Imagine a player who could LEGITIMATELY play the slot and back up at RB?  I am sure he'd be a special team player as well.  I noticed him at the combine, and thought, "Here is a late rounder who could stand out as a slot and provide depth at RB. Without further ado....(I know one Huddler who might be able to tell us more about this guy): Navy running back/wide receiver Eli Heidenreich headlined the 2026 NFL Combine for the Midshipmen, running an official 4.44-second 40-yard dash and recording 16 reps on the bench press. Recognized as a versatile, "Swiss army knife" offensive weapon, Heidenreich solidified his draft stock as a potential day three target.    Eli Heidenreich (RB/WR - Navy) 2026 Combine Performance: 6'0" 200 lbs.   40-Yard Dash: 4.44 seconds. 10-Yard Split: 1.55 seconds. Vertical Jump: 35.5 inches. Broad Jump: 10' 0". Bench Press: 16 Reps. Highlights: Showcased as a premier receiving threat from the backfield, having left Navy as the program's all-time leader in receiving yards (1,994). High character.  Smart.  Maybe, just maybe....
