Corral heading to IR

I wish him a good recovery.  Honestly, I haven't been impressed with Corral.  I know it's an unpopular opinion.  I know some Huddlers are going to point to how young he is and adjusting to the speed of the game.  To that I say, even when talented qbs are new to the NFL, they typically show something in preseason games that's impressive.  There is usually an identifiable trait you can see in the game, the x factor they bring.  I don't see that with Corral.  I hope I'm wrong, but my money is on a wasted pick.

Only three starting QB's had a worse passer rating than Darnold last season. If you think he's head and shoulders above PJ you're living a fantasy.

He could be the worst starting QB in the last decade and still be head and shoulders above PJ.

They both throw some of the worst interceptions you'll ever see the only thing Sam has on PJ is his arm talent. Of the last 4-5 years he is there was a Twitter thread about this it's buried in one of the many locked Darnold threads.

I think it’s worth asking… if corral was so “highly rated” then why did he fall in the draft? 

That is in reference to what our FO said. They said that they gave the kid a first round grade

You don't throw guys that you regard with that kind of potential to the wolves. No other team this year has done that with their 2022-top-five-QB.

I re-watched the two dangerous throws he made last night. In both occasions, absolutely no one -- wide receiver or RB -- got an ounce of separation. Everyone was covered.

When he got hurt, New England rushed four. The C, RT and LT all missed their blocks or got blown up at the snap. 

He had no time to throw most every snap of preseason and when he did, the UDFA receivers got no separation. So he was saddled with 1) dump it off every possession and get called Clausen, or 2) take a few chances and get the "didn't show anything in preseason games" label.

Well if Mayfield doesn’t work out we are picking a qb next draft.

That should’ve always been the plan. Corral was never and never will be first string talent despite our desperate fans, we are hoping for a long term back up aka an upgraded Grier.

Unfortunately, we won’t have a high enough pick, yet again, for the dumbass brain trust trying to cheat their way and outsmart everyone else to success by signing Mayfield only to win 7-8 games. Darnold and Rhule would’ve secure a top 5 pick without the drama.

And as we all know, a worthwhile vet that’s not a sex offender won’t come here.

So it’s 2024 after a growing year with the new coach. Or trade up next year for a king’s ransom, and to be honest, I am 100% behind it.

    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way to efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
    • Man even after 5-12 seasons they are able to produce hype videos.
