Would anyone else feel comfortable with Anderson starting?

id rather cam get the experience, but if i was the coach an needed to win id play anderson, he gives you the best chance to win at this point

we have to think about the future, I would only start anderson if we had a chance to go to the playoffs this year but honestly I'm only expecting about 6 wins this year so Jimmy or Cam get the nod.

Dear God.

Is this what this once proud franchise has come to?

Drafting Clausen, then 'ole "Computer Repair" Newton....

And now this?

Starting Derek Anderson?

The man who has already been run out of 3 NFL cities?

Folks,

Please...

It's almost as sad as you giving yourself pi on all of your posts, because no one else will.

i dont know if Anderson gives you the best chance to win at all, he didnt give Arizona the best chance to win last year to the point they traded a 2nd and Rogers-Cromartie for Kolb. i dont think he gives them the best chance to win.

Former Pro Bowl QB vs soon to be out of a job roster fillers should equal dominating performance- but somehow it didn't.

He had a nice throw or two, but Jimmy and Cam both vastly out performed him IMO.

He's a decent mentor, an ok security blanket, but shouldn't be counted on for much more than that. He's peaked- he had his time in the sun and pissed it away and couldn't legitly beat out Matt freaking Leinart. Cam and Jimmy have a future in the league, why let half has been, half never been stand in their way?

Actually, Arizona coaches said they thought Anderson gave them the best chance to win, numerous times... same at Cleveland 'til the owner stepped in. If Rivera says the same thing at the start of the year, it might not be that strange, although some here might treat it as though armageddon has happened.

There's a couple trains of thought... go with the best you have at the time, or go with the one you figure you'll end up with and hope they'll improve through experience.

Cam's got a HUGE upside, Jimmy's not a lost cause in the least, but if Anderson can do a better job of running the team for now, why not? The guy only took snaps in what, 3-4 practices so far, and very few in those. I figure if he starts getting an equal share in the next week or two the coaches are looking at who'll do the best job to begin the season.

Nothing is locked in stone, and I'm sure they want to develop the future starter as fast as possible, but why sacrifice potential wins for a little bit of game experience if you've got a guy that you think will give you a better shot at wins in the near term?

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
