Now that is an odd way to do it. If its just those two playing I would have assumed it would be for an entire half each. Just from a rhythm standpoint. 

I'm not sure a had coach who thinks you can run a two quarterback system in the regular season is going to have a very good understanding of "rhythm".

This only makes sense if they are getting Sam out of here and Walker/Corral are battling for the QB2 job

"Then the second part, and this was coach McAdoo's idea, and his perspective, as a backup quarterback, you have to be ready to go in the game at a moment's notice, and you have to be able to excel and play well without having much of a chance to warm up. This is our way of simulating that for them, where they have to warm up and get cooled down and go in there and be hot; that's how I see it."

There is a part of my brain that thinks "Good grief, he's not gonna stop till he finds some way to keep PJ Walker, is he?"

I'm trying really hard not to believe that but damn 😖

I doubt he seriously plans to run a 2 qb system.  Baker would have to start turning the ball over a lot before he's benched.

I would expect a similar arrangement as this in Week 1 of the regular season. Baker first and third quarters, Darnold second and fourth. Or Baker on first and third downs, Darnold on second and fourth if needed.

It appears that it may indeed be the case. It would be shocking if they outright cut Sam however and anointed PJ the backup position without head to head competition. 

I guess PJ is auditioning for the backup position after all.  I suppose Corral is just getting some live bullets action to see what he's made of.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
