I feel very strongly about this... Derek Carr.

Some possible UFA QB options if Carr and Lamar hit free agency:

  • Lamar Jackson
  • Derek Carr
  • Jimmy Garoppolo
  • Sam Darnold
  • Jacoby Brissett
  • Geno Smith
  • Mike White
  • Cooper Rush
  • Baker Mayfield
  • Gardner Minshew?

Starting to accept the increasing possibility of Sam returning to start for one more season and/or the team moving up for a passer. If the Saints land Carr, Lamar stays in Bmore, Geno stays in Seattle, and JimmyG reunites with McDaniels that's going to leave Jacoby Brissett or back-ups Mayfield, White, Rush, and Minshew. Not exactly the most inspiring group... 

I think that if nobody trades up with Chicago for the #1 overall pick we could see Carolina make a move to slide up to #3 for whoever is left between Stroud and Young. If they're confident enough in their scouting + coaching, maybe they stay put and take who remains between Levis and Richardson.

Phew... this offseason seems even more stressful than what we've experienced lately.

Does he fit with what Reich wants in a QB?

One of my biggest issues with Reich is he did the exact same thing as Rhule, in respect to QB’s, with the Colts. 
 

I really hope he brings in offense staff that can find the right gem among the stones, and build an offense around them here. Offensive coaches, even good offensive coaches are a dime a dozen around the league. Real, good coaches. Not so much.

But I still say f no. You have to look at if this QB can go head to head with Hurts and Mahomes (if going that far) and pick apart SF type defenses, with Vikings and Cowboys in the long run in order to make it all the way and Carr can’t do that.

What about what Matt Stafford did last year?

Thought he wanted someone more mobile, could do RPO stuff.   ??

What Reich primarily wants (at least from what he said so far) is accuracy, intelligence and good footwork.

He considers mobility a plus, especially given the way quarterbacks are trending these days, but stated that a quarterback has to be able to win "from the pocket".

bro wtf is going on here lately with these takes...

Have you seen the tape on Richardson and Levi’s. Corral doesn’t look too bad from his college tape after seeing those break downs from JT. If you are so pressed to get a QB don’t be biased in your evaluation. My opinion is mine to think and to share. Until something happens don’t post a contradicting statement someone can reference back to when your “hot take” looks like hot garbage.

Yes, but what is his win loss record? 40-33-1. Way better than Rhule that is for sure. I have a feeling Reich was the right fit for us. Now the defense I am starting to worry about.

I don't necessarily think I'd judge whether I want to avoid anything based on the fact that Matt Rule failed at it.

That'd negate an awful lot of stuff

I’m willing to give Reich a season, maybe two. But he sure he’s have a lot of the same earmarks as Rhule.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
