Carr doesnt really move us into a playoff contender more than Darnold or a rookie would. We'd still have the same limitations on offense. 

Damn, a month of solid play from Darnold and suddenly he's being spoken about in the same breath as a 3-time Pro Bowler.

Way to go, Sammy boy!

What the hell are you talking about? He got benched because they want to draft his replacement and are concerned he could win these last couple games. If you listened to any of his press conferences this year you would know he isn’t a quitter. He was in tears during their losing streak. I don’t want him on our roster, but the man has a lot of heart.

lol right? It’s very similar to the Kyle Allen hype we had. Right now Carr is a solid starter in the league and Sam is maybe a solid backup/bridge QB. Maybe Sam can continue his turn around, but Carr has already proven himself.

If you go home and leave the building because you got benched that's quitting. 

 

He has left the team.

Lol. He didn't quit. They yanked him because if he got injured in the last two games his entire 2023 salary and part of his 2024 salary become fully guaranteed.

This is a purely financial move because they are going to cut him.

That salary isn't tradeable and even if it was, it has a no-trade clause so he gets to pick where he goes.

Carr is on the same level as kirk cousins in that yes, he's a good QB but he's not elite. I think he'll end up going to the Jets where they will offer him a long-term starting gig as here, he would be only considered a bridge QB as we are dead set from Owner to front office to fanbase on drafting a QB in the 1st this year.

Did you see my post?

 

He's not in the building. Not at meetings, practice or lifting sessions. He's cleaned out his locker.

At any job in the world if you go home after a demotion and don't return to work that's quitting.

      We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.

      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.
