The QB dominoes are starting to fall. Mac Jones is out in New England, Baker is staying in Tampa and Russell Wilson is out in Denver.  From everything I'm reading, Cousins to the Falcons is almost assured unless the Vikings have a last minute change of heart to keep him.

The two wildcards are Wilson and Fields. Once those two have been settled, we will see all the teams remaining with holes at QB1.

I'd be terrified to pay Baker that much with Canales no longer there.

They will regret it. They barely won the division and beat the struggling Eagles in the playoffs.

 

I still don't fear the Bucs in the grand scheme of things. This is just a bad division. If Cousins signs with Atlanta I think they are the favorites though.

Honestly, I wouldn't be worried about it if I were Tampa. Low guaranteed money, fairly short term and low overall price.

That is about what I would think the 49ers will try to offer Purdy.

Baker getting paid is cray cray. I guess you can really change your career by having 1 good season in a terrible division. Good for him.

 

 

He is a QB so it's demand vs lack of supply. If they stop being run first then they will learn real fast why he failed elsewhere and was cheap when they picked him up off the scrap heap. If he has to justify his price tag is when it's going to get real interesting. Much easier to build a better team around him when he was cheap.

I was hearing Wilson to Pittsburgh, but I have not been keeping up. Fields then to maybe the Raiders?

Without Canales will he be as good?  Stay tuned, but Baker is known  for having a good year once in a while--streaky.

That's a possible destination for Wilson.  Jimmy G still has some years on his contract so it would be as a backup, initially, if Fields went to the Raiders.  I don't think Fields can beat out a healthy Jimmy G. Wilson supposedly got a call from the Giants.  I don't see that happening though as Jones' contract is too steep right now to ditch and Wilson isn't signing as a backup.  Maybe Fields ends up there as a back up for a season and then the main guy if they cut Jones in 2025.

the Giants sitting at #6 are in really good position to grab a QB this year when the market is better than it will be in 2025, I would speculate.  Would they take McCarthy at #6?  Maybe not as risky as it was when Gettlemen took Jones early.  I think that would mess up the Vikings' draft.  I am really ready to get free agency behind us so we can see through this muddy water.

      Week 12 Other NFL Games

      Watching Rams/Eagles. Celebrating the St Louis Rams team that won the SB (Warner, Holt, etc..) while playing in Los Angeles seems wrong.  If I were in Los Angeles, no way I would attend a Rams game.  Probably wouldn't attend a Chargers game either.  Becoming a fan of a team that likes to move around just seems like a waste of energy as a fan.

      The only responses I am getting after providing statistics to put opinions in perspective seem to be from people who get angry and attack stats and people whose opinions differ from their own.  Have people on the Huddle ever overreacted, exaggerated, been wrong about players before?  Sure they have, so an alternative opinion with statistical support should not cause you to attack me or my views.  I am sorry your public schools failed you.  But your reactions are very revealing--you are stuck in Piaget's concrete operational stage--learn logic, how to debate a topic, and learn the difference between facts and emotional opinions.  When I paralleled Cam's stats with Jones' to point out how remarkably similar their careers have been to this point, It blew some 40 watt minds.  I think Jones, in a better situation, could be good--that should not upset you--

      penalties and poor hands is what cost us in the RZ Bryce missing "high" in the back of the end zone is not an issue, you're taught as a QB to throw high in the back of end zone were only the receiver can catch or no one The duo of Ian Thomas and Tommy tremble can both go at the end of the season, both been here for multiple seasons and they've barely developed
