Grier or PJ

PJ seems to be more electric but Grier didn't hurt himself with the 2s. 

Difference in style...

Grier was more like the steady guy who isn't very exciting but also doesn't make huge mistakes. Walker is the guy who makes a load of bad plays but every once in a while gets a big play... including some for the other team.

The backup QB spot being a daily argument around here….is a reminder that the starting QB spot is the actual issue.   And no, neither of them should be the starter.

Tie Grier's left leg to PJ's right leg and tell the NFL they're one person.

Gantt's take...

Walker had a rough night, and Grier was better against the Ravens than Walker was against the Colts, so this competition may truly be tied now.

Neither and both, for another season at least.   I seriously doubt they will find an upgrade this late in the year. So it's ride or die with this rag tag lot.

As for the future?  It obviously will come in the draft or via another trade if it's not on the roster already.  I feel confident that Fitts will not stop looking until one is found that's for sure.  Let's all hope there is something in Sam that the rest of have failed to see because team sure believes that something is there.

I'm getting drunk either way.

Off the street? Probably not but sometimes final cuts offer up a surprise.

If they really want to improve, the best option is probably to offer a trade of a lower round pick for somebody like Jacob Eason.

Where all the PJ fans from last week lol. I don’t think Grier or PJ are NFL qbs imo but 1/8 passing. Damn that’s just plain terrible!

[Shocker]

Its a battle of ineptitude 

[OldhamA]

Gun to my head, Walker. Grier has stated numerous times that the NFL game is too fast for him. 

[Captroop]

I'd say Grier. I feel like it's easier for a QB in that mold to step in for a stretch of games. PJ is nothing like the QB we're scheming for. The Ravens showes last night that it helps to have a backup who's basically an inferior version of your starter. 

I'd say keep Grier, and bring in a journeyman backup. 

[Peon Awesome]

I'm erring towards Grier mainly because in comparable situations, Grier looked better than PJ (basically what Gantt said). I mean we all assumed it was just coachspeak that Grier was improving his game but maybe he really did. He was atrocious his rookie year but that was 2 years ago. And he didn't look good in preseason game 1 but he was playing with players that have no business on an nfl roster and still looked better than PJ last night. Not crazy to think he refined his game a little since his rookie year. He was actually good yesterday. Not talking about a qb controversy and we're still screwed if he has to start for us, but I feel better about his ability to turn into a possibly usable backup which I couldn't say before yesterday.

grier has shown a threshold of decidedly mediocre, with the inability to do much of anything.

PJ has shown an infinite capacity to make bad decisions and ruin a good thing.

tough call.

[Moo Daeng]

Prefer neither. I'm not seeing anything to justify the recent Walker hype from last week. He's consistently extremely low completion pct.

I still think they keep him 2. I would not be surprised with anything.

Grier actually surprised me last night. That was the first time I thought he might not be a total bust. Having said that, it’s a pretty small sample size.

I just don’t think PJ’s scrambling ability offsets his inaccurate arm enough to rely on him.
