I won't, but I wouldn't mind them cutting pj, I don't see a way they don't run with 3 though.  I stand by that the coaching staff wanted a way to not have to keep corral on the active roster, they did not want him taking up a roster spot and the injury was the excuse needed.

There already reports saying the 3 Qb plan might change with Corral injury.. PJ is gone Especially after last night and that's why he look so depressed in his interview..

I mean technically this literally means he can't walk. 

Even if he can, he's not allowed.

It’s not like we would have the worse qb situation in the nfl. Baker at 1 and Sam at 2, isn’t a horrible position to be in.

Upgrade compared to the last two years.

Baker at 1 is okay but Sam Darnold is not a better QB than PJ Walker. Both stink even as backups.

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

[TheBigKat]

So glad that PJ TRASH WALKER got reps with a competent O Line and Corral got reps with plumbers and electricians pretending to be football players

That is true, but neither you nor I are on this staff.  Our concerns are a little longer term.  And it will be their problem if they survive this year.

Long term is a win win for me..

Baker does good we have a winning season and I get to enjoy watching football again..

Or 

Baker sucks Rhule gets fired and we get Either Stroud,Levi's, Richarson or Young,...

Well, to keep Corral, even on IR, he has to be on the final 53.  So my guess is that it will be Corral, Darnold and Mayfield, with PJ on the practice squad (if he can be on the PS).  And then Corral goes to IR, and PJ gets called up if needed.

You could keep PJ on the PS all year and only call him up in a emergency... Ain't nobody picking him up and keeping him on their active roster..

Considered Matt Corral ruined

Yep could have just kept that third round pick and drafted Howell.

Last time we see him in a Panthers uniform I bet. Another mid rounder QB flop for the Panthers

Absolutely nothing that has happened so far has shown Rhule's handling of anything is correct.

He wasn't ready, that was clear.  He needed more time to sit back and learn.  Even though this was more of a fluke injury, injuries were also a concern and more time in the weight room and to know the playbook were obviously needed.  He wasnt the great qb immediately that some fans had delusionally hoped he would be.  No coaching from any coach would have changed that in a couple weeks.

Put Matt in behind the most garbage line possibilities  and says he needs to make the most of the chances.... Rhule I swear....

It does come down to that. 

The worst that happens with Mayfield is not that he sucks this season (the Rhule demise offsets that), but his "good even years, not so good in odd ones" continues and we get Rhule for another year or more as we go up and down like yoyos.

FWIW, I think Mayfield's down 2021 was more a product of injuries than anything.  Seems like Stefanski used Rivera's philosophy of "rub some dirt on it and get back in there."  Not saying he would not have had a down year by comparison to his 2020, but not as much down.

I was not an advocate of trading for him, but was okay with what we gave up and paid for him.  But it beats another season of Darnold and PJ, even if they are on the depth chart under him.
