PJ Walker!

[Michael G]

According the Rhule's PC today he rolling with Baker again this week. I guess my dreams of winning one more game are crushed.

QB Controversy The Sequel incoming....lol

 

As long as he starting against the Falcons when we wear our black helmets. I don't care if we don't win any more but one game we cannot lose is that one

[PantherPhann89]

I agree, at least this would keep us giving up a 4th for Baker...

No it isn't...

It is if you want to make sure you have the most money spent on QBs that are healthy enough to start but suck to bad start. 

[Basbear]

He can not do much worst, Bakers got the bar at the Pickles level...

[catnip]

Can we still win 5 games this year with Rhule and Baker ?   So sad  !    You can fix uneducated but you can't fix stupid .

What are we trying to accomplish?  For argument's sake lets just say PJ plays better than Baker.  Are we a contender?  I think quite clearly, NO.  So really, the best thing that could happen is the worst thing that could happen.  PJ leads us to a few wins we wouldn't have got otherwise.  Damaging our draft position, and GASP creating a possible bridge for Rhule to cross to another year.  No Thanks.  Accept this year is lost, stop looking for hope.  

That is a loser mentality. You try and win every game. In a game where players put their health on the line every day and play despite injury and pain to try and win it is a huge disservice not to give your all. Clearly you haven't played anything at a high level or you wouldn't suggest such garbage.

We’ve had decent discussions in the past, by and large respectful, but this is a complete dick reply.  My post is legitimate.  You act like I’m the first person to ever suggest that not winning a few meaningless games is a bad thing.  Hell, Miami basically tried to do it openly.  Happens in MLB and NBA all the time….ALL THE TIME.  Let’s be honest, it happens plenty in the NFL as well.  Even when it isn’t sanctioned and influenced in the front office you better believe players are making business decisions for themselves on the field and certainly not giving your proclamined ALL ON EVERY PLAY.

You say I’ve never played anything at a high level?  I say you never have and you know nothing about me.  Your view is idiotic, short sighted and completely non realistic. 
 

There was a way to do this without personal attacks and maintain some civility but you took it another direction.  Go F yourself.

You are right other folks have said the same thing and I put them in the same category as you. Do I need to know you to respond to your post? No. And if you had played sports at any significant level you would know that this might be a fan reaction but not a player one which is what I said. You can get triggered all you want but it doesn't change the fact that losing on purpose is a loser mentality. I didn't call you a loser simply your thought process and conclusions. 

[Zaximus]

At this point, why not?  For the mere fact that it would be way more entertaining no matter which way it goes.

Just so we're all on the same page here, we're talking about this PJ Walker, right?

The guy with a 4:1 INT to TD ratio?  Completing 56% of his passes?  With 3.4 air yards per attempt?  The guy two inches SHORTER than Baker Mayfield?

Frankly, nothing could signal "white flag" to the locker room any more clearly than starting PJ Walker.

I want no part in trying to lose. Football can not be played like that. As a player I would have to try to continue to improve and play my ass off. I would not want to play with someone who doesn't do the same. I feel there is something off when just about every ball is batted down and something mental. I like the way PJ can move and play. Let's put him in and give us a spark. Trying to lose is for losers.

Do not forget that Temple standout and XFL MVP Phillip Walker is our backup. He is 2-0 as an NFL starter and even though he is as short as Baker he can usually get passes off without having them smacked out of the air by opposing defenses. He is a little more mobile than Baker maybe and not named "Sam." Rhule did not commit to Baker as the starter following yesterday's loss. Should PJ get 1st team reps this week? 

I think its worth considering. It provides a very small chance at shaking things up and making things more exciting worth losing the compensation (draft pick) from the Baker Trade?
