He isn't the odds on favorite for MVP. 

So is it the other guy that we let go that year?
 

Which I didn’t care about then but it is funny now 

Edit time out. Apparently you could be talking Drake Maye.. man the people we have missed because we were tied to Bryce Young

From CBS Sports

This week's front-runner is Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (+275), who soared into the lead behind a 280-yard, four-TD performance in a 42-26 victory over the NFC West rivals San Francisco 49ers. Stafford now has 25 passing touchdowns against just two interceptions while completing 67.1% of his passes. He is followed in the MVP odds by Patriots QB Drake Maye (+300), Colts RB Jonathan Taylor (+475), Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (+600) and Bills signal-caller Josh Allen (+700)

This is a guy that would be a good option to bring in as a 3rd stringer to potentially compete in camp. 

Throwing eggs in that basket to sign as a starter for 2026 should basically get a lot of people fired for the suggestion.

Signing an old retread to be the starter is about as uninspiring as watching paint dry. 

You have a true QB competition and let the chips fall where they may.

That's why I want to bring in a good/solid veteran backup and either a bust QB like Lance/Wilson/Howell/etc or a rookie QB. 

Get some options and see what happens.

No but we could have had him if tepper wasn't poison. At the time (not now because Goff has been great) the Panthers offered a better trade package but Stafford said fug that noise and the Lions respected him enough to not send him to this hell hole.

Lance came in a gigantic project. The 49ers needed a hit after that dumb trade but the guy who made him redundant is now also being easily replaced by Mac Jones for a fraction of the pay. Then Dallas wanted a cheaper option but he was still a project where they wanted a replacement option. I think he is getting his shot now. He is behind a QB that his team isn't needing to replace where both SF and Dallas needed a contributor and not a project.

If Darnold can become a legit starter and playoff appearance level QB then anyone can be coached up. No idea if Lance is taking those steps but it's worth at least a look.

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
