Tua, really? Have they found out of the kid can walk or run again yet? I mean, that injury is much worse than what Cam is recovering from. Hate to say it, but I don't think the young man will have a professional career and that's a sad thing.

Looks like he will be ok. There is obviously some risk which is the only reason we will have a chance to draft a quarterback of his skill set with our pick. Honestly he probably we be picked before us, but if he is there we should consider it...

Look at the 49ers. They didn't take long to turn it around. I don't want a Defensive minded coach either. I want a sharp offensive minded guru that will alleviate defensive woes by controlling that clock with a high powered offense and knowledge. Albeit the niners have a lot of talent and sucked around 2 years after Shanahan took over but i'd be willing to sit through two years than hope Rivera gets his head out of his ass.

I think the difference is the QB not the age. If you can be a winner with a young qb you want that. The ones that work usually turn in to the next Brees, Brady, etc. If you are paying 30 million a year to an older QBwith mediocre success you obviously arent thrilled with that situation.

Buddy, I just don't like the idea of buying a car from the lot when the CarFax said there was major undercarriage and frame damage, no matter what the salesman and his mechanic say.

Let someone else drop the big bucks on that gamble.

Tom Brady isn't paid nearly what he could be on the open market and Flacco/Brees/Rodgers weren't on hugely massive contracts when they won, which further supports the premise. Perhaps the better questions is to ask how many Super Bowls were won by teams spending a massive chunk of cap (think current going rates) on a QB? 2015 Broncos and... no one else.

 

The amount of money both Jerry Jones and Dan Snyder would throw at Brady would be insane.  Snyder would "win" but holy smokes it would be some coin.

Yeah, we had that discussion before.

If you're going to move on from a quarterback with injury concerns, it's not necessarily the wisest choice to do so with another one.

    • If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait. 
    • I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football. 
    • Maybe a move to the SEC forces UNC to be more serious about football?   I mean we should be making noise in the weak ACC and we can't even do that. How is Duke better than UNC in football right now? It's honestly sad and pathetic.   It doesn't matter if we get another great QB as you said a QB doesn't mean you have a great roster. A QB can only do so much. We lack elite guys in the trenches. That's how you build a program. It starts up front.
