It literally takes another QB to get Ron to do what he should have already done...

Or a worse player getting injured to finally start a player that is probably better. Not saying Howell is better than Heinicke. Just saying Rivera stubbornly sticks to his guns to the detriment of the team.

That was a class act move by Heinicke there.

Taylor is masterfully forging a long, healthy career as a solid backup in this league. Good rapport, team-player, moxie to spare, and if you have your franchise guy at QB, I can think of few other backups in the league who I have every confidence they could step in and compete, and even win some games if your starter has to miss time.

For sure. He isn't a starter but he's a quality backup and part of being a quality backup is being a great guy in the locker room.

Yeah, he's the next Ryan Fitzpatrick.

We shouldn't have let him go.

Ron also didn't know he would be eliminated if he lost this past weekend and then clarified that "he thought they would win and only focused on what would happen if they won." so no surprises here other than how great of a teammate and person Heinicke is. 

I have no idea how Howell plays but it would have to be awful to not have given him more time considering the situation for them this year.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
