Fitterer has literally said he's going to be adding lots of competition to the QB room. if Darnold somehow comes out on top of that competition, I can't imagine it will last all that long. there will be a rookie (or injured 👀) QB waiting in the wings to take over.

If any trade or other than benching Darnold I hope this don't take place.

No one in the NFL is serious about Kaepernick anymore. Regardless of how good(or bad) he was viewed as a player and regardless of his political stance, he has not taken an NFL snap since 2016. He does not have a future in the NFL as a player.

I don’t understand people fascination with Kaepernick. He had regressed a lot. He is 34 years old. And hasn’t played a game since 2016. 
I know people will say he is better than Darnold but is he really? Plus I am tired of people going to that reason for signing mediocre players. Even though I don’t think Kaepernick is mediocre anymore.

Been saying this since the season ended. It makes zero sense to give Rhule a rookie or one of the leftover vets because not one of them will save his job. Wouldn’t doubt if Tepper told him to upgrade the line and prove everything we gave up for him was worth it.

I agree, in addition the coaching staff should be stronger. His biggest challenge is decision making on those few occasions when his protection held up. If a quarterback is drafted he will sit for some time. There are no available quarterbacks that would be an upgrade. A healthy McCaffrey and decent OL is worth 3  more   Wins if the defense holds up.

      What we had then, what we have now...

      By d-dave · Posted

      If only those guys grew on trees? The 2015 team was really special.  That was such an incredible year until the Super Bowl. What happened was the owner let the football people handle football decisions.  We had a front office that made some really good decisions.  Just hit on FAs and draft picks at a high level.  Those guys became GREAT players.  Our head coach held the team to a standard, but allowed them to be themselves.  That let so many of those guys grow into vocal leaders and tone setters.  Then we had Cam play lights out for the entire year.  We had a defense led by Luke, one of the best to ever play.  We had guys like Greg and TD who were so smart and tenacious. That was a special team.  The biggest question is how do we bring that back?  We don't because we can't.  Instead, we need to build up the team again.  Bryce is not Cam, duh.  Maybe he's not even the guy next season.  But there are some dudes like DB, Horn, Chubba who are all high character, effort productive players. As team, they need to lean into what they do well, and give Bryce his opportunities to prove himself.  If not, you keep building the best team and work on that QB.

      Did the Panthers get Mike McDaniel fired now?

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross was less than thrilled after the Miami Dolphins lost against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, 27-24, dropping their record to 1-4 on the season. "He was really frustrated, just like I was," head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday. "We talked about the challenge ahead to get ready for the Los Angeles Chargers, and that was really the extent of it." https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25257873-mike-mcdaniel-admits-dolphins-owner-was-really-frustrated-after-loss-panthers
