No.  He's not.  Solid backups don't have turnover problems.  Solid backups are the ones who don't lose games for you.  Maybe they don't win them, but they don't lose them.  Derek Anderson was a good backup QB.  TB5 was a good backup QB.  

Sam is a bad QB.  Period.  Backup or starter, bad.  He seems like a good dude.  Both can be true statements.

You remember that one game where Ron benched Cam, and Anderson threw a pick 6 on like the first play of the game or some poo?  Yeah, that was awesome...

I remember it vividly. It was a check down to Tolbert and not a bad pass at all. Tolbert completely whiffed trying to catch it and popped it up in the air himself for the DB to easily grab. Completely absurd and fitting for the way that season was going and Ron is an idiot for benching Cam for 1 play over a fuging tie, but DA was definitely a solid backup for most of his time here. By the time that season rolled around he was pretty old and not as good but he was as good of a backup as you can get from like 2011-2015. We just fortunately didn't need him that much since Cam was such an iron man initially. DA's only 2 starts in that stretch were in 2014, a fluke preseason injury to Cam that held him out week 1 and then his car crash later in the season. DA played well and got us both wins. Yes we had a losing record that year but he ultimately helped us make the playoffs and we won a playoff game...

Forget Mayfield.  What's the skinny on Corral?

From all accounts he needs a year or a few months at the least. He has the tools, he seems to need help learning the playbook and the pro game and that just takes time. Basically the answer lies in his wonderlic score. Again, he'll be fine because a low wonderlic doesn't spell disaster, he just needs time.

Corral said he took the test wrong (put an answer for every question vs leaving Qs blank) so who knows what his actual score is.

It’s okay to just not say anything, or say you don’t know. 
 

But instead, you write poo like this.

...just saying...Rhule is such an egotistical maniac that he still has Darnold out there wasting valuable time & resources still practicing with the 1's oh my my what a complete dunce...just my 2

Agree

i will always hope the team does well. 

I will never be a fan of Rhule   He has every quality I dislike in a person. That said, hopefully the NFL coaches around him help make this season viable 

as for Tepper, I see he managed to show up for a practice yesterday, barely acknowledging the fans there.  My, what a change from his first two years 

just think, Watson could be in the Panthers sideline had Tepper had his way   Class, isn’t Tepper’s string suit 

Whether we care for them or not doesn’t matter.  In the nfl, winning is all that matters

      According to ESPN stats, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are 24th in the league in motion at the snap, only using it 14% of the time. The team does employ motion before the snap quite frequently, though, as it runs motion %43.7 of the time in general. When asked specifically about motion at the snap, Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales confirmed that it's in Tampa Bay's arsenal and that it can be a big help on offense. "It's a part of what we're doing," Canales said. "It allows us to stretch the defense horizontally. All you're trying to do is create a moment of indecision for the defense and then that helps the run game, helps the pass game. Switching the responsibilities to create free-access releases at the line, that's a big part of it." Tampa Bay's low percentage of using this type of play doesn't mean that it won't increase in the future, though. Canales said that while some teams are doing a great job at implementing it in their offense, others like the Bucs are catching up to speed. He mentioned that he first saw heavy usage of pre-snap motion when he was with the Seattle Seahawks and played the Los Angeles Rams twice a year. "[The Los Angeles Rams] really utilized that from the time Sean [McVay] had been there in LA. It's something that's been around for a while, and I think that the rest of us are learning how to utilize it."

      Division opponents thread: Bucs, Falcons Saints news

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      Yea Falcons should (and hopefully will) get slammed hard for this tampering business. But even without that, Kirk Cousins is solid but the team still isn’t good. Their O is super overhyped based on college production. The RB they got last year looks good but he’s no Barkley or CMC. Their young WR and TE are dookie no matter how much people wanna hype them based on their college days. (And by dookie I mean compared to expectations. They’re mid, objectively).
