I like how they use the excuse that the reason Cam was cut originally was because of his health. He then went on to put up 3300 yards and 21 TDs for an offense he had 5 weeks to learn and featured Damiere Byrd as the #1 WR, and he also got covid 4 weeks in which slowed his development even more. Those numbers Cam put up have been better than any other QB we've had since. That will always be Tepper/Rhules biggest mistake and they have no one to blame but themselves. Glad to see they both got what they deserved

Good read, always bothered me that Rhule came into the league with a manifesto to get Teddy. Giving him 60 mil and then cutting him after one season while repeatedly throwing him under the bus fractured my confidence in Rhule too.

IIRC everyone said that it was pressure from Joe Brady that brought Teddy to Carolina. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I fault Hurney for that contract not Rhule. He had a passion for overpaying bad talent.

I've said elsewhere it feels like we're headed towards a Bills hire Rex Ryan move.

lol OMG that's a lesson the Pegula's learned fast. Loud mouth does not equal good coach. I hope that's a lesson Tepper will skip.

Kinda odd the article barely mentions Darnold, who I'd argue giving away 3 picks for and paying his current $19M salary to sit on IR/bench is worse than the relatively minor financial setback from picking up Teddy. I get that it was a clean slate and Teppers first taste of Rhule's bad decision making but I think most of us just assumed Teddy was going to be a 2-3 year bridge QB while we groomed a QB from the draft.

Ironically enough teddy was the shiniest turd in the bowl. They dropped him with no realistic shot or plan to upgrade the position. Stafford was never coming here.

Rhule was a bad hire that caused a multitude of issues that’s going to take some seasons to fix, hence why more than half the board was pissed with the sam darnold trade and when he was brought back this year…..complete waste, cause we all knew he was getting fired barring some miracle.

If we had just let cam play out the last year instead of paying teddy, and than trading for sam and baker our future would be a lot brighter.

draft and develop, and take a swing at qb when the opportunity arises, if my non billionaire ass can see that idk how the actual millionaires can’t

Not if Rhule was still the hire. I'll take this scenario over him actually getting 7 years as the HC

I’m still trippin over Tepper giving Rhule 7 years. Even if you felt he was the guy back then, he was still an unproven college coach. Give him a 3/4 year deal at most. It’s quite clear no one knew what they were doing. Trusting Hurney in the first place was a huge mistake.

 

Get a consultant in here, and do this thing right. We’re right where we were in 2019/2020.

Posted at 2:40 am.  Is the OP on the WC or having trouble sleeping?

So the reports were that Stafford didn't want to come here, but now Tepper killed the deal?

Does anybody seriously believe that Stafford would choose us over the Rams?

Talk about a piece with a lot of speculation.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
