dave mcbride Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I strongly believe he'll be moving on, and I've thought about the best position for him to land. He is not a franchise QB like Allen, but he's legitimately decent, has won in this league, and has all of the tools. If I'm Pittsburgh, which has no credible QB, I'm targeting him hard. In my view, his best career trajectory comp is Tannehill. Tannehill is not elite, but he's good and can help get to 11 wins and maybe a SB if the stars align. Pittsburgh has most of the other pieces outside of QB. Pittsburgh would be legit playoff contender with him. They are not a playoff contender with their current stable of quarterbacks. 10 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Giants. Jones needs some competition. Not buying all the fluff Schoen and Daboll are saying about Jones. They’re not handing him the job, but doubt they draft a 1st round QB. Trubisky would make sense there. 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not buying all the fluff Schoen and Daboll are saying about Jones. They’re not handing him the job, but doubt they draft a 1st round QB. Trubisky would make sense there. I truly believe the Giants are committed to Jones for this season. Every report I've read is that Giants management across the board loves Jones and think his talent has been wasted. Assuming Trubisky is a competitor, he's going to where he will be the starter. Pittsburgh is the most stable organization in the league and hasn't had a losing season in forever. The receivers are good. The RB is good. The defense is generally good (albeit with some holes). It makes the most sense to me. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Rodgers, Watson, Jimmy G, Trubisky, Wentz. Could be a lot of starting QB's shuffling this year. Trubisky will have his opportunity to go somewhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are committed to Jones. Houston's QB may well be the second best QB from last year's draft after Lawrence. Mills was the number one recruit in the country coming out of HS, after all. Maybe Indy, but Pitt makes a little more sense to me. I don't like Wentz, but he's a legit NFL starter. Pittsburgh doesn't have a starter at present. Nothing even close, actually. Rudolph is bad. 4 minutes ago, FrenchConnection said: Tompa Bay? Could be. Seems like a chaotic situation down there now, however.

Dr. Who Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Just now, Coach Tuesday said: Pitt, Tampa, NOLA, Miami? I wouldn't want to follow Brady. I think NOLA is in bad shape or Payton would not have bailed. Miami is going to be fun after this offseason. Pittsburgh makes the most sense to me, though I'm hoping somehow we retain him (unlikely.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I agree that Trubisky won’t be back in Buffalo. There are at least four teams who can offer him a legitimate shot at winning the starting job, which is what he says he wants. I think the bigger question is who the Bills will bring in to be Josh’s backup. 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBBills Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Probably Giants b.c they seem like the type of team to use a backup QB as a starter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 He has options. He's kind like that girl back in High School that was attractive, but not in a splashy way. The further distance and time you move away from her, the more attractive she becomes in your mind. Some team will give him another chance. And I hope he gets to the right place where he can be the most successful--unless he is playing the Bills. 2 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Also makes you wonder where Jimmy G ends up. For some reason I think of them as similar in talent and ceiling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern_Bills Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Giants seems the most likely. If he doesn't that means Daboll isn't high on him. Daboll can't go into the season with only Jones and he would know what he has in Mitch, and of course Mitch knows he would be ahead of the game on the playbook with a shot at taking a starting job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Carolina, back to where he made some noise in college and does fit what Ben McAdoo wants to do. Maybe Tampa or New Orleans. i do think there's a chance he stays. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
