Very little chance of achieving even average quarterback play coming in midseason. Letting Rodgers choose Boyle as backup/3rd string was a(nother) bad decision. Having Wilson as qb2 was an even worse decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Namath Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 This all making sense now. This is why Saleh is trying to hide his grinning at the podium. This is a total tank job.

He’s played in 8 games over the last two years, starting 5. In those 8 games he’s got a 58% completion(not great) 170 yards a game(also not great) but 12 TDs and 4 picks for an 87 QB rating. He’s not going to set the world on fire, but he can manage the offense and get the ball where it needs to go. Good lord I hope you are right, I forgot this guy existed. My question if he good enough to see open guy and hit them close to on time. Cause literally that is all we need to have our play makers be able to love the ball. Low ceiling I do not care. I feel like this guy sucks but if he can do that then honestly even with hacks play calls the last game we win. Hell we might be 3-0 with this kid at center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Ive said it many times. If you dont win the super bowl, the 2nd best thing to happen in a season is finish dead last and get the 1st pick in the draft. Maybe this organization realized this after week 1 and had decided to go this route. If so, it is the 100% correct thing to do an absolutely brilliant. Stay tuned!

Green Truth Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Isn't this the same guy they had as Darnold's backup in 2019? That Myles Garret destroyed his ankle. Douglas loves familiarity. What an utter disaster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean Boyle? Yeah I'm not sure it seemed like best idea just to trot him out verse NE even if say at the half, when Zach was going three and out every drive. Then he plays and if he plays good let him go to KC. Now we are at KC with Zach again and Siemens maybe the following week. Idk. I guess closer to no more Zach which is good, it is just confusing as hell. When it does not need to be. Zach can not run offense. Bench him for back up. Bring in new guy. Let them play. Simple. I have been saying the offense just needs any decent player that can hit gareet wilson in stride and hand off. Siemens can do that. And can def make all the throws Zach can. Plus probably can play at NFL speed. As um likey as it is, this guy might play us to the playoffs and I am all for that. No problem inserting Rodgers next year and letting Zach go. Not the guy I wanted but it is the guy I wanted out and that is all that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get this thinking most of the time, however not with this team, during this point in time. We have a pretty young and talented roster and we can't just punt away the season completely and have their development compromised, or their desire to play here (Avoid them demanding trades). We need some foundation of winning (some) games and unity going into 2024 with Rodgers returning, not a fractured shell of a locker room. We need some stability and hopefully finish around .500. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetblue95 Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 i was one who said it was gross negligence to not bring in another QB, so i can't really crush this move. sadly, he's probably the best QB on the roster. if anything, when zach ultimately gets crushed behind this line (or the coaches actually bench him), he's probably an upgrade over boyle. hopefully this isn't the end of them exploring other QB options, but the QB room is "better" now than it was yesterday (admittedly a very, very, very low bar). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
