I am just not seeing how this isn't tanking. I mean......how?

If Young gets hurt and/or it's 43-0 in the fourth quarter, they want to see what Plummer has to determine the moves at backup QB.

Of course with his best weapon out, we excused poor play from other second-year QBs in other conferences, so curious to see if that approach is applied here.

I mean....I am not trying to be flippant but who cares what a PS/3rd string QB really has to offer in an almost impossible scenario?

I am becoming VERY convinced we are really tanking. But, that should show itself very clearly on Sunday, if true. We should get absolutely stomped.

Oh there are absolutely two big-time, 30-40 point curb-stompings incoming. But the team believes it's worth more to see if Plummer can lead a few drives in garbage time vs. spending a sixth-round pick on a QB. Not my justification, but theirs.

Yeah, very possibly so. We will see how it plays out.

If we are getting blown out enough to sit Bryce, Bryce might lose his job again.

I think Dalton is going to retire. He lost a lot of zip on the ball from Vegas to Washington. He looked exhausted after those 5 games.

Andy only had 3 or 4 games left in him when the team signed him. He has spent those this season. He will never be able to give a team more than that at this point in his career. He will probably retire.

      New Processing Blue podcast episode

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."

      Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...

      Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
