No.  He's not.  Solid backups don't have turnover problems.  Solid backups are the ones who don't lose games for you.  Maybe they don't win them, but they don't lose them.  Derek Anderson was a good backup QB.  TB5 was a good backup QB.  

Sam is a bad QB.  Period.  Backup or starter, bad.  He seems like a good dude.  Both can be true statements.

You remember that one game where Ron benched Cam, and Anderson threw a pick 6 on like the first play of the game or some poo?  Yeah, that was awesome...

I remember it vividly. It was a check down to Tolbert and not a bad pass at all. Tolbert completely whiffed trying to catch it and popped it up in the air himself for the DB to easily grab. Completely absurd and fitting for the way that season was going and Ron is an idiot for benching Cam for 1 play over a fuging tie, but DA was definitely a solid backup for most of his time here. By the time that season rolled around he was pretty old and not as good but he was as good of a backup as you can get from like 2011-2015. We just fortunately didn't need him that much since Cam was such an iron man initially. DA's only 2 starts in that stretch were in 2014, a fluke preseason injury to Cam that held him out week 1 and then his car crash later in the season. DA played well and got us both wins. Yes we had a losing record that year but he ultimately helped us make the playoffs and we won a playoff game...

Forget Mayfield.  What's the skinny on Corral?

From all accounts he needs a year or a few months at the least. He has the tools, he seems to need help learning the playbook and the pro game and that just takes time. Basically the answer lies in his wonderlic score. Again, he'll be fine because a low wonderlic doesn't spell disaster, he just needs time.

Corral said he took the test wrong (put an answer for every question vs leaving Qs blank) so who knows what his actual score is.

It’s okay to just not say anything, or say you don’t know. 
 

But instead, you write poo like this.

...just saying...Rhule is such an egotistical maniac that he still has Darnold out there wasting valuable time & resources still practicing with the 1's oh my my what a complete dunce...just my 2

Agree

i will always hope the team does well. 

I will never be a fan of Rhule   He has every quality I dislike in a person. That said, hopefully the NFL coaches around him help make this season viable 

as for Tepper, I see he managed to show up for a practice yesterday, barely acknowledging the fans there.  My, what a change from his first two years 

just think, Watson could be in the Panthers sideline had Tepper had his way   Class, isn’t Tepper’s string suit 

Whether we care for them or not doesn’t matter.  In the nfl, winning is all that matters

      Updated 2025 draft order

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      By CBDellinger · Posted

      6-10 carries for  35-45 yds and 3-5 catches for 15-25 would be great.
