Matt Corral: The Biggest Underdog in The NFL

Person just mentioned that all the 3rd round QB's from the draft are holding out for more guaranteed $$

They put a one year wonder and athlete not yet ready to play, and ok Ridder above the presumptive QB1 of only a year ago because of fake/embellished news.

All that hard work just to lose a significant portion of your reward over something you can't control, the fake news rumor mill.

Honestly, it's simply part of the process. It's a dirty business, but they're going to reach back to high school (or even further) when evaluating a player. The rumors and poo had an effect, how much we'll never know, but the injuries were the main problem. They opened the door wider and gave people the opportunity to focus on BS while MC was on the mend. The good thing is that if he performs up to his potential, whatever financial hit he has to take on his first few years in the league will be more than offset with future earnings. It's not where you begin, but where you end up.

start him day one. 

IMO he will perform as good if not better than Darnold.   Even if he throws too many picks I think the experience will help us contend in 2023.  If he can just utilize his weapons and minimize his mistakes.  We have a team that could surprise people.

I think he's the real deal though.

    • No matter what…I didn’t expect to be relevant and in playoff talks this late in the year. Very surprised. Just treat every win as a bonus and keep building on that from last season, this team is trending up. 
    • What you credit him for were good plays.  I refer you to the thoughts of another QB out there being tasked with that situation. Were they plays only he could make because of a unique skill set or ability, compared to another QB? Is it possible someone else of marginal NFL skill level might have made those completions?  This is the thing. You might reply that his intangibles come into play, his clutchness for example. I am saying it is fair to wonder if maybe another QB converts on third down and we don’t need a 4th down conversion. Or another guy makes the same throws and the train keeps rolling. Stuff like that. Where do you draw those lines? And if you don’t get a clear answer of Bryce could do that and another guy similar in skill set or maybe with a better arm could not, then do you pay him huge multiples of millions?
    • From my understanding of the situation we can’t make any changes for a few years bc the recoloring of the blue counts as a uniform update. I do know from my guy that:   - we were supposed to get new uniforms a few years back but the team hesitated and pulled back on the process    - the updated blue on the jerseys and the black helmet were a part of that update that never happened   - if a change happens it won’t be until after our 2028 Rivalries set drops   - ownership is actually pretty fond of the silver. They started to included it more in CFCs identity
