Beason responds to Omar Kelly


Mr. Scot

Matt Moore and Jimmy Clausen are our qbs. I'm riding with them. The draft is a roll of the dice.

For the record, my opinion on player input toward roster choices is unchanged. Still, I found this interesting.

Curious though: All those who endorsed Beason's opinion yesterday, do you still do so?

Beason just opted to give the company line.....not much more. Actually, his QBs are Clausen, Pike, and Null aren't they?

Of course not, it doesn't fit their argument now, does it?

Thats the politically correct thing to say. What do you expect Beason to say "screw the guys on the roster i want the QB we dont have?

:shocked:

My question would be what made him say it.

- Did someone on the coaching staff or in the front office get upset?

- Did one or more of his offensive teammates see this as throwing them under the bus?

- Did Kelly misinterpret or misrepresent what Beason wanted to say?

Or did Beason just decide on his own that he wanted to say this?

Hard to say which is true.

Think about that for a moment, though.

If you're a Newton fan, is this the kind of "company line" you want to hear from the team?

Far as I can tell he didn't say who he did or didn't want us to draft in this one. He basically just said Jimmy and Matt are his guys. Which they are.

I don't think it is a company line I just think he realized he should stfu bc he has no idea who we are going to draft and didn't want to cause a rift in the lockeroom if we don't draft a QB or even if we do. Those guys are likely to be on the team and possibly starting. No reason to have people think you don't have faith in those guys.

But none of it matters because I called no take backs yesterday after he said it. So....

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
