I am in the minority here, but I don't really think Trey Lance will need to sit. He would certainly walk out day 1 better than Teddy.

I'm with you on this one Verge. Work on the Oline and turn him loose.

I'll be glad to get him, and I don't care whether they sit him or not. I can see the benefits both ways. Rhule seems like a wise and knowledgeable enough guy to make an informed decision, and in a way that doesn't hinder Lance's development if in fact he does let him play. More reps in a planned and thoughtful manner are exactly what Lance needs to succeed! If they come in practice, great; if they come in live games, sobeit!

I believe he could beat Teddy out as well.. 

Maybe after the bye week but I doubt he walks in and picks up the offense better than teddy.  I truly hope if we get lance he just sits for a year and maybe Brady works with teddy to open things up and maybe we can eyeball the playoffs. 

 

I mean the saints arent crap, Falcons coming off a worse year than us and damn this has to be the year father time taps brady on the shoulder.

I agree start him day one, but would Rhule do that is the question. If we start Trey and bench Teddy that would suck just to see all that money on the bench. I really think we have to trade or cut him, this isn’t going to work him staying here. What u think?

Starting him week one would be an unimaginable disaster on so many levels.  I think there is not a snows ball chance in hell that scenario happens.

I will put money on we don’t win but 5 or 6 games if Teddy is the starter.

Playoffs?

I'm not sure I want Teddy teaching him how to football.  Mentor him on how to be a professional maybe.  But how to QB? No way.

On the recent Ringer nfl podcast they talk about how Case Keenum did that Baker this past year and it paid off big.  Case showed Baker the ropes.  What time to get to the facility, how to watch film, how to navigate positional meetings etc.  Just how to be a qb in general not really in the area of slinging the ball just how to be a professional.  Sounds like Teddy is perfect for that role

 

Apparently Baker never had a mentor type figure showing him how to do it.  Its the browns so I believe it

I’m not paying Teddy 20 mil to be a mentor this year, can go get Smith or Fitz to do that for way cheaper

Maybe not week one or TC but Teddy will start being Teddy at some point and Talent rises to the top... 

Let's also remember alot of us didn't think Cam was ready to start after a horrible pre season... Then best rookie QB year ever...

I never put any stock in underwear olympics.  Game tape is the only thing you can truly measure and that can be misleading also.  It takes more than physical ability to be successful in the NFL.  It's what's between the ears and in their heart that gives them a fighting chance.

Yeah I recall watching Johnny Manziels Pro Day and I think he went like 65/65 and looked absolutely amazing. And we all know how well he worked out….

    • Trying to help those 3 folks who hate this move.    In 2025 2.75 million is basically the new "vet" minimum.    They still need #3 RB and returner, draft could/should be the lane for that.    There's no downside to this move, they could cut with little effect and replace with your chosen rookie.   
    • Is it though? Even looking at just this past year, DK played 3 more games and had 81 more yards than Higgins had, but he also did it on less catches, with DK averaging 15 yards per catch and Higgins with 12.5. Yes, Higgins had 10 TDs to DK's 5, but I'd say that was far less about the WRs than the QBs, seeing as Burrow had 43 TDs (and only 9 INTs) to Geno's 21 TDs (and 15 INTs).  Swap the two of them last year and DK puts up better stats with Burrow as his QB than Higgins did, no doubt about it in my mind. DK has also only missed 3 games in his career, Higgins has missed 5 in each of the last 2 seasons. People here complain about our WR speed (and it's many people's biggest issue with T-Mac in the draft), but Higgins ran a 4.59 40 and DK ran a 4.33. DK has only played one more season than Higgins but he has 1,730 yards and 14 TDs more than Higgins, despite playing with the ghost of Russell Wilson and Geno Smith, while Higgins has had Burrow. To me, there is no debate, DK is a significantly better WR than Higgins.  Give him Burrow as his QB during his career and his numbers would dwarf what Higgins has put up.
