so do you think other "styles" of QB won't be considered? a Lamar type for instance?
Yes. I do not see Lamar making it long in this league unless he develops more into a pocket passer

I think he will develop those skills as time goes on

what more can you do , clone one ?

those are your options , you can do combinations but thats it as far as plans go

i think carr , grap , marriotta are guys we have a shot at , maybe tua , but those arent franchise guys and if the fan base gets disenchanted with a KC then i am not sure they will be down with those guys either

shark has said this many times , we have been in a constant search for the franchise qb , we have drafted , moved up and drafted , traded for , signed and we have come up empty

i think we just have to hit on our qb in the draft so keep picking a qb every year somewhere in the draft till you get one
Yeah, but the owner picked the last two. That's the problem. Give the football guys in the building a shot at drafting or trading for the next QB.

Haskins, Alex, and RG3 were all either Dan, Bruce or a combination of the two of them.

The last QB worth his salt was Cousins and he was drafted by a football guy. Go figure.

We have to break the cycle of drafting the wrong guy. Sucking in the right year helps but the WTF blew that with Griffin. He was exactly what he looked like. Cousins was a solid pick. For all those that said "WTF" you were wrong.

I don't think there are too many Lamar types. For those of us that watched what Shanahan did with Griffin that first year we hoped he would be Lamar before Lamar Jackson. Have the running skills while learning to play QB. We all know what happened there.

I'd take a Steve Young type. I like the idea of being able to make the defense have to defend the QB but IMO he should be a QB first and runner second.

This team selected one spot ahead of Chicago and despite their fears, should have made the move to get Fields. Failing to address the "top priority" during the off season sent a chilling message to the team about this season and as a result, we're getting the type of "effort" that's led to a 2 -6 record.

The defense got exposed during the Tampa Bay playoff game, and nobody is afraid of Fitzpatrick, Heinicke or Allen. Had they gotten a QB as promised, the record would be closer to 4-4, possibly better depending on who that QB would have been.

Whether Fields is the real deal or not, I still don't understand why they weren't more aggressive in getting him.

I liked Mac Jones more than any other QB in the draft. Of course he was not going to give you that second dimension.

I wanna see what Corral looks like against A&M. As of now I'd feel comfortable taking him with our pick.

RR, is currently saying that it would have cost too much.. that's bullshit but what do fans of this team expect from a dinosaur who has fallen back into his true self that wasn't working and forced him to change into that played out Riverboat Ron role.

Probably looked into their QB room saw Fitzpatrick, Heinicke, and Allen and said... "We're good!" :L

That's a little harsh Sty, but I hear you.

Fields hasnt shown me anything yet. And 10 dollars to a doughnut people here would bitch about his play because patience doesn’t exist here

Patience and a football fan .... that can be hard to have when you have experienced the kind of football the Redskins and now WTF have played for the past 30 years.

Not sure that I have had it with TH, he has been what I thought he would be. I am open to him improving .... I don't expect him a starting NFL QB.

I think it has to do with more than on the field play. Haskins displayed moments that shouted to me I am not here to be coached and I am not aware of what my job is. Not joining in on the bench when the OC was going over QB coach and other QBs studying on the iPad. Fan selfies when the game wasn't over and others.

Right or wrong as fans are going to critique players and games. I think that is part of being a fanatic.

Save this post!!

If you take a look at RR's coaching record, the first thing that you notice is how inconsistent his tenures have been. A deeper look tells you that there's a direct connection between his successes and failures when he has "that guy" at QB.

1636638567131.png

That said, I fully expect that this team under Rivera, to have a much better third season simply based on pattern alone and definition of "much better.". It is the historical inconsistencies that are troubling, especially in light of the fact that, he absolutely identified the main reason for his successful seasons and thus far hasn't acted to put himself and the team in a situation in which the QB position is settled. If you note the 2011 season, (Cam was drafted) Rivera's focus was in building the Carolina defense. it wasn't until Cam's third season that winning began in earnest. He is following that exact same pattern now, the difference being he doesn't have his QB already on board two years in.

I don't want to be harsh on the guy, but damn, he should at minimum show something different about himself that gives indication that he's not merely replicating "Carolina north" here. (Remember he got fired for that)

If we aren't a 10-7 or 11-6 team by year four, I'll be on board with replacing him.

He's had to deal with so much off the field BS. He doesn't have a QB (his fault). Just beat cancer. Been here a year and a half and ugly or not he already has a division crown under his belt.

Gibbs told Dan to hire Ron. That's why Dan has been so hands off. Not out of respect for Ron, but out of respect for Gibbs.

Just understand the next guy that comes here, most likely means Dan will be hands on again.

His job here is much tougher than it was in CA . This is an expansion team in every sense of the word and it has a carry over culture issue
