PJ Expected to Start Tonight

As I've stated repeatedly, I think PJ is actually the second best QB on this roster currently.  I like PJ.  But I just don't understand the logic behind this. Whether you are like me and think we should cut Darnold and PJ should be the backup, or if you think PJ is the odd man out at the final cuts, it doesn't make sense in either scenario.  

Don't get me wrong, Matt looked like a deer in headlights in game one, and a really scared one at that.  He looked overwhelmed.  But, I've made it a point to emphasize, that's partly a product of not getting reps in practice/preseason games, and being surrounded by mostly roster filler in the 4th quarter of a preseason game.  So, despite how bad he looked, I would like to see him with some NFL level talent around him for an extended amount of time.  Even if he gets the 2nd half tonight, it's still gonna be with mostly roster fodder and future cuts.  And this brings us back to why the reps they're wasting on Darnold are so important.

    • I love that. He could be a good one. 
    • The biggest part of being a gunslinger isn't just massive arm strength, it's a fearlessness. Brett Favre is of course the best known one, and he's legendary for all of those touchdowns... and the record number of interceptions that came with them. But he was fearless and went down shooting no matter the situation. We had that in Jake Delhomme, too. Cam, definitely not a gunslinger. Had the arm strength (Lord he had a cannon for an arm), but his fearlessness allowed him to become an incredible runner as well. He didn't have to stand there in the street at high noon and just let the lead fly. Bryce... not sure he can become a gunslinger or if he's just a technician (that's not a bad thing, look at Joe Montana or Drew Brees), but he has to conquer that fear. He seemed to do that after those first two bad, bad, bad series. Can he make it happen from the start next week? I hope so for the kid. Would love for him to get it all together and make something happen. If that means he's our franchise QB, as long as he's winning he'll get my support. 
    • I got my conspiracy theory about the XL and Brooks picks.   Not going there today but will say I absolutely hated shorting the defense in yet another draft and FA that year. We paid for it too.
