Let's hope for Smith! Agree. I just want to move on from TT.

Umm, horseshite.

I liked then Peterman pick and still do. He will develop into a useful player for us, Frank Reich-like. Supported TT until all the games with throws that should have been made -not made. Liked Prescott and wondered why the Hell we let him slip by. Paused a bit on Mahomes, but was never sold on his accuracy. I value accuracy and anticipation very highly in a QB. Which is why I want Mayfield first, Rudolf second out of this crop.

So their doctor suck. Ours are hopefully better. I would agree, all I'm saying is that rather have him behind the center than Tyrod. And that's why while we develop our rookie QB.

That's why they have team doctors. You go by what they say after the examination.

16% of his game we're come from behind. With TT, behind in the 4th quarter means we lose. Look, you think we're a better team with TT, just watch those 50 yard passing beauties he put up and the stellar Jax game. I'll take Teddy over that, particularly as a bridge QB while our draft pick matures. Overall I'd take Alex Smith as a bridge over both Teddy and TT.

You could say that about any QB. Besides we're not putting our eggs in one basket, he's a bridge (as his name implies) quarterback while our draft choice matures.

Yeah you're right, just like Peyton Manning, Brady, Dan Marino, Johnny Unitas, and John Elway. Those are the top five come-from-behind quarterbacks. If only they were more competent in the first 3 quarters they wouldn't have had to rally in the 4th Yeah you're right! You definitely are lost. I'm saying this, Teddy Bridgewater is a better quarterback than Tyrod Taylor. Our offense would be much better under him in the sense of winning games. We would be playing the Patriots today if Bridgewater were our quarterback against Jacksonville. I'm not saying Teddy is our end-all quarterback, he's better than Tyrod and whoever we draft Teddy could help school them. That's how this whole thing began my friend. You want to get stuck on passing yards and stats, fine I'm talking about winning football games. Particularly when the game is on the line and it matters - when TT dissappears. When the going gets tough, Tyrod tanks.

Process this...

This is where I come down. I like to see 65% or so completion average. Anything below 60 really concerns me. We have enough inaccurate mobile quarterbacks around right now. We need a guy who can actually stay in the pocket and make the damn pass.

You can vote however you want, but if you put that question up to the rest of the board I think the answer would be clear. Bridgewater's a better quarterback. What the hell is the sense of having a great passer who can't win games, can't connect to wide receivers, and throws for 50 yards a game? You call then passers, I them football players. Teddy Bridgewater is a better QB than TT. Bridgewater has won 16% of his games with 4th quarter comebacks. The fourth quarter is when TT disappears completely.

Ahh, the little cloud that cried returns.....I kid. Lots of teams, read Rams, Steelers and KC are happy with that useless stat and thank god we had Shady in my book. If not your book, fine.

It's all we can do. So far, so good. I just hope beyond all hope we finally draft a real QB. I think these guys are the guys to do it.

Nuff' said.

Aaron Rodgers did okay by it as have others. I hear you though. It will be interesting to watch Mahomes next season.

We can debate stats all day long. You tell me, it's the fourth quarter were down a touchdown who do you want to have the ball, Tyrod or Bridgewater? Ask anybody on this board and I think you have your answer.

Particularly if they could bring him along slowly and not throw him into The fray. Let him sit a few years behind Smith or Bridgewater or AJ McCarron.

+1. Yeah like Belichick after Cleveland or Marv after KC. They never improve.

All I would care about is: 1) Does he throw before the break? 2) Does he understand why teams have wideouts? 3) Does he release the ball in under 3 seconds? 4) Does he throw more than 4 yards when the 1st down marker is 5 yards away? 5) Does a sub 60 yard passing game and his name not appear together anywhere? If so, great. Sign him. (Hmm, also check that he doesn't have slow eyes, let's not go back two steps!)

It's actually more than 33% of our offense. Which puts him right in the same market is Todd Gurley, Le'Veon Bell and more than Kareem Hunt. With a better OC and line coach as well as quarterback, I can see his numbers spiking next year. Stay the course!

Winner!

Teddy actually throws before the break, and and he actually targets wide receivers, doesn't doesn't have 50 yard total passing games and brought his team from behind five times for victories.

Agree 100%. Rudolph had a 65% pass completion, which is one of the thresholds that you'd like to see. TD to interception ratio was really good as well. Although I hate to even say this but he doesn't look like he sees the whole field - EJ Style. I haven't watched him enough to see if he has slow eyes or not!

I think Arizona takes him. The wild card is Washington and Cousins. I would love it if the Jets would break the bank and sign Cousins but if not I can't believe they pass up on one of the quarterbacks coming out. Gets to be a numbers game after that.

He's head and shoulders over TT (well not height-wise) as a passer. He's a gamer as well.
