Don't hate it, but was hoping we'd somehow sign a better backup and throw PJ on the practice squad.

I like having PJ on the practice squad given his scrambling ability as he can help us prepare against the more mobile QB's, but the guy has proven that he isn't much more than that, he's not a viable NFL QB unfortunately.

Rhule's fascination with his former players is not a successful strategy in the NFL, that needs to be stopped.

The plan is for Darnold to be the backup once he's healed.

I do think Eason is a better quarterback than Walker though. Gonna hate it if, when Darnold comes back, we dump Eason in favor of PJ.

I'd still rather have PJ on the practice squad right now while signing a better backup.

Then if/when Darnold comes back, cut said backup

Or if I personally had my choice, just IR Darnold and let that terrible experiment be over, he's of no value to us anymore.

Yep and he didn't live up to expectations...

He had decent stats at Georgia but injured in his 4th game as starter. Jacob Fromme came in and never gave him back the starting job. He transferred to Washington but had to sit out a year. Only played at Washington for a year as starter. Went pro after that one year as a Junior. Drafted by Indy in the 4th round. Was projected in 2nd round.

Who would you suggest? Don’t think anyone is worth it that’s out there. Keep in mind PJ has an entire offseason in the offense and took the most preseason reps, so at least he has knowledge of the scheme. I think PJ sucks but I don’t think it’s prudent to bring someone in off the street at this stage to be the #2 QB. Honestly I hope he gets cut once Darnold is ready to play and we just keep Eason on the PS.

      I would take the giants roster over Panthers. Lawrence, 3 OLB/DEs, Thomas, and nabers. Lawrence is better than dbrown and Thomas is better than icky. Panthers don't have one edge that would start over those 3 not matter how people feel about burns. Id believe....I think I would take nabers over the whole WR group....Id need to think about, but I feel it is right or 50/50..... Now after the top 10, Panthers may have claim. Im just not that big of a NFL fan like past time to make a good case. I'd just take giants on their top talent.    I will say this, if BY carries this team to the playoffs, he alone would flip this.

      Looks like he ran out of real estate.  He had 5 total TDs. As good as we have ever seen in Carolina? Looks like he is the only QB in our history with 3 passing and 2 rushing TDs and he tied a single game record of 5 TDs in one game with Cam and Beurlein.  Throw in his 73.4% completions and zero turnovers, literally the ONLY thing you could argue against statistically is total yardage which was only 275.  You may not agree with that statement (not 100% sure I do), but it's really not THAT wild...
