Ryan Kalil Supporting Jake Delhomme

Never thought of this. I think it's a good idea, but only if he doesn't play... Sorry, I just don't think he's the second coming of a Kurt Warner. We'd prolly get him on the cheap as well. I know he loves this organization from top to bottom.

Edit: after letting it marinate for a couple minutes I think this is genius. He already has everyone's respect here... It's not like he'd be the fugin new guy, that when he talks, people will be like, why is this guy even opening his mouth? His work ethic was awesome and he will instantly gel with everybody. I can see him being in the mentoring role just because if the guy he is... I can't get his ginL press conference outta my head right now. The way he cried really got to me... Looking back, it's something we needed to do with his huge contract...

Man I think this would be a CLASSY move by Ron... I know the big cat loved him. He was over there at his house all the time. They had a great relationship.

Who started this thread? Instant swag! I think this would be a great move by the organization.

I am looking forward to those that disagree for various reasons that they will try to explain to me like I have no idea about his career...

I am 100% behind this move and really hope we do it!

I for one would welcome Jake's presence as a mentor to Cam. Would be a nice bridge from the past to the future. I mean, if you consider what we're looking for in other veteran QB's - experienced, mentor-ready, high-character guy - then why wouldn't Jake be at the top of our list?

The only reason I can see for not wanting him back would be if you think the QB we sign will actually end up playing. I've never felt that way, so as far as I'm concerned bring Jake back. I've always loved the idea.

Many here have said in the past that it's a waste of a roster spot on a guy you won't play.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
