Why is PJ Walker on this team?

[Pantherxtreme]

Why is he on the team if he's so bad that a putrid Sam Darnold who didn't even practice all week after getting concussed and injuring shoulder is the better option. 

Who am I kidding no one's that bad, Rhule and company are just saving face for their horrible personnel move. And keep rolling the bust out there until our season becomes a bust.

Do we have an explanation for this? If your QB is as bad as Sam Darnold and is playing as bad as Sam Darnold but this dude isn't worth playing???

So what is he doing on this team?

To NOT put pressure on Sam.

I think sometimes teams don't really want a backup that is that good.  It can cause QB controversies.

This entire time I think they have tried to create an environment for Sam to succeed and take the pressure off of him. 

Even in the preseason they didn't play him much.

As long as all the pro-personel people are fired also or it's half assed action. Those guys are terrible. 

The only guy that needs tuning up is Rhule, IMO. Literally just him. You want to be the boss and have final say over everything in the organization, then you take 100% of the blame.

He was Rhule's college QB, its pretty much why half of the team and all of the coaching staff is here.

And he failed even harder than ever. Rhule needs to get fried in the media and by the fans for this.

This lays 100% on his fuging shoulders.

Because Rhule likes the little guy.

Why gaf if our backup QB gets minutes. It’s not like we need to evaluate him or the team is going to be a competitive playoff team.

Because he is a Rhule guy.  He will sing the song Rhule wants sung behind the scenes.   Experienced pros like Teddy will point out bullpoo and talk about guys that don’t know what they are doing 

and Rhule can’t play him.  Because if he does play him…you will see Sam and PJ are the same.  And that type horrible is free.  Yet Rhule gave up a bunch of picks for it.

But the huddle keeps saying how much talent this team has.

DJ and Robbie just had 1000 yard seasons, CMC is arguably the best in the league, Chinn, Reddick, Burns, Brown, Gilmore, Shaq, and DJax are great. There is plenty of talent, just a bad OC and QB.

Huge part is Rhule but those guys let it happen. Should never have been on the board. No idea how much to blame where but throw in Fritts to the poo stew that is our offense. Just awful on so many levels.

And an even worse head coach.

The point being that Rhule left the team in this fuging shape because he bought in so fuging hard on Sam Darnold.

So he fuging knows PJ can't do this but did fuging NOTHING to change that.

Rhule is a fuging idiot.

The crazy poo is he didn't need to bring in real competition, like a younger player like Minshew to be the backup. He coulda gone with an older vet that everyone knew isn't gonna be the franchise. That's NO pressure on Darnold.
