I mean, a lot of the random poo that gets thrown at Caleb was also thrown at Cam.

I don't care about much of this. Same with his being upset on the sidelines. There were so many, "CAM IS A POUTY LITTLE BITCH" threads in here it was nuts. Winners hate losing. I don't want people that accept losing well. Also has a big problem with playing hero ball like Cam.

So, for those reasons, I am not gonna jump on the badwagon of crucifixion of the guy for pretty football irrelevant reasons.

People unfortunately still do this today towards Cam.

The outfits, celebrations and all the other strange horseshit he did. IDGAF about any of that. Is the player a good football player? Is he effective for 60 minutes on a game day?

The rest....whatever.

Caleb looked amazing against the panthers.  Even now his QBR is way better than Bryces.  I expect thomas to do well I feel bryce made all the coaches last year look way worse than they really were.  Guess time will tell if thomas is a good coach or not.

Eberflus is just delaying his own inevitable firing. Williams has the physical attributes to succeed but needs some maturity in the worst way.

for the most part, QB play in the NFL is a between the ears thing.   Pending you meet a certain level of physical check marks.

Rumor is that some Bears players thought Williams should be benched as opposed to Waldron being fired.

True? Don't know. Plausible? Yeah.

Either way, given their prior connections It's not exactly hard to imagine Waldron becoming a part of Dave Canales' Panthers staff in some role.

(heck, I'd be for it)

I suppose the one thing Brown has going for him is prior experience with a rookie QB behind a seemingly bad O-line. Then again, he didn't exactly fare much better here either. If it remains a sackfest, options are reallly limited.

Its almost as if rookie quarterbacks shouldn't be thrown into the fire from the beginning.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
