But if its non operative, he could in theory come back in 8-10 weeks.

wasn't the word already put out that he is going to get surgery ?  I would think the coaching staff would be looking out for his long term best interests at this point and that requires surgery for that injury.

Sam Darnold is what he is. If he's our starting QB because Baker is injured the season is over anyway. Sam could run with 3rd string and it will produce the same result. A happy feet, 1 read QB that loves to throw the check down. No amount of starter or 2nd string reps is ever going to change that. We could very realistically now be going into the off-season with one QB on the roster that's been on IR all year. Zero knowledge in our QB room. That is asinine. 

This is about looking beyond this season. You have to do it. Even if Corral is only taking 2nd string snaps during pre-season, he needed reps. Sam could have been backup during the season with Corral taking reps as 3rd qb when available. 

We are on our 5th qb in 3 years. Unless we re-sign one of the 3 amigos, it will be 6. This coaching staff with the QB position is a fugging joke. 

You do realize you're talking about a staff who is playing this on a 1 year basis right!!

From the start you should have known that they didn't see Corral as a starting option this year if they could help it..

So while some of you had Russell Wilson,  and Dak Prescott in your heads..

They were thinking Redshirt year and only break glass in a emergency...

When has a redshirt year ever worked in the nfl?

Wouldn't be the first time a team has IR'ed a player to save a roster spot and to keep a developmental player from being poached.  Am I saying the injury is completely bogus?  No, but I am saying that if not for this injury there would have been another one which really could have been questionable in another week or two.  In short, Corral was going to IR at some point anyway, IMO.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
