Rumor: Garoppolo could be flat out cut.

I don't want us to substitute one lame ass QB with another. He's not an answer and if he's not an answer I'm not interested.

My fear is that they would treat him like he was the answer and I just don't want any part of that. 

They dug their hole with Darnold, for all I care they can rot in it until we wise up and get a HC who won't fug up. 

There's not a vet answer available and there isn't going to be one this year. 

Either we draft one or (more preferable) roll with who we've got and fix the damn OL.

Hmm 30 year old QB with a banged up shoulder who has underachieved with a loaded roster and one of the best young head coaches. What could go wrong?

If he's cut.  You're telling me you'd rather go with Darnold or a rookie with a lot of learning to do?

I am totally against trading for him but if he was on the free agent market I would give it shot. 

Our options are getting smaller everyday.

Yea we don’t want to sign a guy who has played in the Super Bowl and was in the NFC Championship last year. Nah. Let’s not even consider it. Even if he was a reasonable contract and not giving up any assets to do it. Wow what a horrible idea that would be.

Some people hate Rhule so much they are rooting for us to lose this fall. Its a fanbase to be proud of.

The 9ers are 31-14 with JimmyG
Shanahan is 8-28 without JimmyG
They went to the Super Bowl and 2 NFC Championship games in the last 3 year

Naah, we're to good for him.

He's not a "winner". He's a mediocre QB on a really good overall roster. He's not good enough to provide any lift. If you're a roster that looks like a 5-7 win team without Jimmy G, you're still a 5-7 win team after adding Jimmy G.

Yeah exactly. We already had a Teddy. I wonder if Jimmy G would even get $10M on the open market to compete for a starting job anywhere else. Seattle or Texans maybe

The Chiefs were 50-26 with Alex Smith but couldn't get it done in the playoffs until Mahomes joined. SF's defense has been better than any that the Chiefs had during that time (Bob Sutton...) so they were able to make it a bit further but Jimmy is the exact same type of player as Smith and a small step up from guys like Teddy and Mariota. He's not going to elevate the team in critical spots and is somewhat fragile, so to me it's more of a lack of long-term upside not being worth draft capital.

If Jimmy gets cut and comes to Carolina for no draft cost and not an exorbitant contract then sure, have at it with the understanding that he's not a long-term solution either. Pretty reasonable chance he'll get hurt and miss several games or more anyway so the net effect may be the same as if he never joined.

That is a perfect example of a team, who didn't need to tank in order to get their QB and win a SB.

This mentality of: tank for a QB, lose now, and get a third HC in 4 years, is a strategy that will keep us in the NFL basement.

The 2022 season is lost. We're not doing anything in 2022, and Jimmy G wouldn't change that. A washed up, injured, "never was" type QB would only hurt our team in the long run.

The best thing that can happen now is to lose a lot of games, and draft a top 2023 QB prospect. The terrible Jimmy Clausen season led to Cam Newton in the draft. The terrible Sam Darnold season can do exactly the same thing to set us up at QB for over a decade.

The NFL is designed to help teams that have dumb GMs, but we have to get out of our own way. QBs are being handed to us in the draft, and we're passing on them (Fields) for poop awful horrible nightmare bad QBs in free agency. THAT HAS TO STOP. Fitt, who is certainly dumber than most people on the Huddle, needs to get out of his own way. Let the NFL help you Fitt. Stop making so many moves, and take what falls into your lap for losing and being an idiot.
