Has a starting caliber QB ever come back after 2 years of not playing a snap to perform at a high level?

Vick wasn't terrible after he came back, and you've got to think Watson was able to train better in his 2 years away from the game than Vick could while in jail.

Plus Watson was younger and better than Vick was when he missed time, so it seems like a decent comparison.

I'm coming back around to "Play the guy you traded for, and if he sucks, play the guy you traded up to draft" mentality. The coaches need to own the situation they put themselves in. 

I have been on that train since they traded for Sam but I know they will do anything to change it up again. It is the easy way and Tepper doesn't know jack and will let it happen.

Sucks it's primarily on Teppers ego to not admit that he just fuged up with the initial coaching hire. Took no time to fire the Soccer coach though. Don't get it

He still doesn't even know. This is the year duh...it's going to be funny watching him realize what a chode he hired at a price that makes him look like a clown

To recap, the Browns are out a first round pick for three years, a couple of assorted other picks, and burned the bridge with their starting QB (whether you like him or not), in exchange for the possibility that Watson someday may play for them.....maybe......assuming there are not even more allegations.  And the list stops there assuming they can/would void his contract and save themselves most of the cash.

To think we had people calling anybody who didn't want the Panthers all in on this fiasco idiots.

 

When you say it like that, it tastes like delicious cake.

It may affect it in some way (impacting the Browns negotiating position, for example) but in the end I don't believe there's any possibility he stays in Cleveland.

I'm pretty sure both parties are well aware that he isn't playing another down for them.

      I suppose it depends on what you mean as 'elite'. I typically mean someone that can play with lower level pieces around them and still win. There are very few of those.

      The running back situation....

      By frankw · Posted

      It would obviously be incredible if Brooks came back and just ran away with the job on his opportunities like Rico Dowdle did last year. But any Panthers fan that has been around the block knows better than to go ahead and make plans for that. Brooks has missed a ton of not just playing time but meaningful early career growth in a league that has increasingly devalued the position from an investment standpoint beyond one or two superstars. There's really not any comparison to look back on that lines up with the current iteration of the league at least not favorably. The key thing that this RB room has going for them is our investment in the OL. The highest paid OL in the league two years in a row paired with our staff should make it easier for just about any RB to get into open running lanes. But that is also anything but a given considering our OL was largely middle of the pack last year. In the end it might all be a moot point anyways if we again struggle to establish a viable passing attack.

      I don't have him making the team and I think same goes for the staff, but they are hopeful for a PS spot.    I mean of course I'd like 3 all-world at RB and every spot, just doesn't work that why. Panthers normally carry 3. dan always talk up Etienne, even called him a future star.....I think Brooks will be fine as a 2 with health pls.....  Chubba can carry a seasons load as lead dawg.    Its fine, I mean backup OGs or CB is much higher on my worry scale(Id even put QB room as worse than RB room too...)
