Dude, no. There's enough of a drop off at QB that he is in no way expendable. PJ tried to give the game away on his 1st or 2nd snap.

Yeah, he is. We are not going to win this year based on our QB. That is over.

We have a rushing offense and a great defense. That is our identity.

For Sam and any other player who went to a school you have a personal connection to. Meanwhile you identify our only MVP in franchise history as a sulking petulant little girl because he hated losing. Spare us the moral stand.

I'm happy with his effort and he bounced back well enough but Joe Brady has to understand he does not have Cam Newton. Do not put your qb in jeopardy when you have a run game going like we did with Chuba and Abdullah.

Yeah … I had a problem with the call or decision by Darnold or both. Not sure what Darnold was thinking acting like a RB towards the end of that play. As a result he takes himself out of the game and potentially future ones. To me that was not a very smart decision.

Heard it straight from several horses mouths, on the sidelines, on campus and speaking at alumni clubs.  Why I will always be pro player.   

To be fair, every Fortune 500 business is like this. I worked for a top company in IT

they would  lay a person off for any reason if they could find someone cheaper, not better, cheaper     God forbid, a person get a long term, illness.  They didn’t  care if you worked sick or holidays or through family illnesses  

It is a tough world out there, and contrary to what modern athletes think, it is for most at a hundredth  of what athletes make

Yes Sam played with heart and guts but he was getting the running opportunities because of his glaring passing deficiencies. It looked pretty clear to me Joe Brady's gameplan was to limit Sam's mistakes as much as possible.

Now imagine if the coaches had been smart enough to do use the running game weeks ago, especially since they kept saying they were treating Sam like a rookie.

My  God you've gone off the deep end. She wasn't even here when Cam was, and has never said a bad thing about him. You should maybe log off if you cannot talk to people in a calm manner.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
