Shelbyblue Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I’m not sure it’s always a good thing. Sam had probably the best veteran backups, Flacco, McCown, Bridgewater and he still isn’t any better at decision making or mechanics. I believe good coaching, protection, and reps are most valuable.

Your thoughts? Poisonous materials have an expiration date and that concerns me. Do they stop being poisonous or do they become more poisonous when they expire? It concerns me that this isn't explained on the labels. I think that lack of explanation is a real statement on our society. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your thoughts? The only thing I want in a back up is a guy who is capable of running a competent NFL offense. I don't need him to be a mentor -- Zach has an OC, QB Coach and the rest of the coaching staff to mentor him. If Zach goes down and Mike White can run an offense well enough to allow other young guys on offense to get meaningful experience and allows us to be competitive in games, then fine. If not, we should have brought in somene who could. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenFish Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I don’t really care much about having a veteran backup. I just want us to keep the best players we have. Mike White should be our QB2 unless we can sign someone better than him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your thoughts? I bet all these guys screwed Sam over. What better way to be the starter than sabatoge your apprentice. It would explain why Sam SUCKED. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warfish Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 We do not need a Veteran backup QB. The only time I advocate for a Veteran Backup, is when you expect to compete for a Super Bowl. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 These are pro athletes. They don't need another older pro athlete to hold their hands for them. In the end its the QB himself who is making the decisions and throws in less than 3 seconds out there. Josh McCown can't help you much at that point. Maybe he can help you with some presnap decisions and general prep stuff but that's about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
