If you're going to bench Clausen, start Armanti

My first choice to start would still be Clausen, I think he needs a continuous string of starts if he's going to make some progress.

Other than him though, Edwards has a style all his own on this team and might provide the offense with a bit of spark playing QB, given his mobility. He might be able to roll out and keep defenses from just attacking the pocket. If he ends up throwing 7/20 for 40 yards, i mean, it's not like we haven't seen that before.

I guess you could go with Lurch but if we bench Jimmy it should be because we're trying to change the offensive approach completely, and Edwards is the only one that really provides that.

In lieu of starting Jimmy, Armanti, and Tony, why would you go with Wembley? He's a f**king fraggle, defenses won't know what the hell he's doing on the field, and that might distract them long enough for him to run a play and find the endzone.

Of course if you're a neurotic conservative nail-biting fiend who's deathly afraid of trying anything different you go with Moore so he can miss wide open receivers 10 yards away and lose field position faster than the Twins lost the ALDS, but then again, that would've defeated the whole purpose of starting Jimmy in the first place.

agreed, moore should be last choice. we know what we have there, lets try the others first and see what shakes out.

i still might put lurch in there ahead of edwards. not sure why. it might be because he might know the offense but then there isn't that much to know about it that all the other teams don't know.

i guess edwards would be alright. i just don't see davidson being creative enough or fox being wild enough to just let edwards do his thing unless there's only a couple games to go and we're screwed either way.

Thank GOD, you don't make the teams decisions.

Atarting AE before looking at the other QB's is laughable.

I think starting Armanti would make us look even more like a joke. I'm not saying he shouldn't see a few snaps just to see how we could potentially use him. However he's been training all this time to be a WR. There's no way he'd be ready to start. Giving up on Clausen and Moore completely for our 3rd round WR would make us look like complete fools.

Wait!! You mean those four years at App State he was really a receiver?!?

Whoa! And they said he was a QB!

Always lies everywhere!

i don't want to Atart edwards before looking at the other QBs. i want to start him big difference (i assume).

we know what moore can do. lets see what the other prospects can do. the season is a wash anyways. lets see what works and if it doesn't then we go with another untested one.

we've already looked at moore, right? not impressed with his being "the man" enough to give him the job back.

go start another thread about it, though. you know you want to.

You start Clausen the rest of the year no if's and buts about it. You made the choice to go to him on week 3, now you gotta follow throw. A carousel at QB is not going to improve anyone, and your still not gonna know what you got at QB.

Clausen needs to start the rest of the season, and you hope that by the last few weeks of the season he starts showing his true potential.

As unfair as it was to Moore, 3 starts doesn't make a career, and you have to let the kid take his lumps and grow.

Obviously you didn't see that the Panthers have Wembley the Fraggle on the roster. Jimmy Clausen is a waste of my time as a fan, if a Fraggle is on the roster.

Get that little bastard on the field!

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.

      A question no one is asking about Bryce and The Panthers

      CMC said he expected to play his career here.  He didn't think he would be traded.  Carolina decided they wanted to trade him.  He picked here he wanted to go.   But we dumped him.  For largely peanuts.   But we dumped DJ Moore and he never had a blood and guts game.   So it's never a guarantee.

      I have many people telling me CMC was blindsided and heartbroken by the trade, but that's not how I remember everything going down.  49ers are pretty wounded right now on defense so if our offense can sustain drives and score, that'd be the difference maker. Their offense? I'm not scared of CMC.
