All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Ankther thing is im not sure ej will get another job in The NFL again. He's not even good enough to be a backup. At least tyrod would be a good solid serviceable backup.
I wouldn't be against keeping Cardale as a 3rd string guy next year. Hang on to him a few years. But, if you don't bring back Tyrod somehow, you need to sign someone and draft someone. An with Whaley drafting our QBs? Oh, boy.

I'd agree with keeping him as the 3rd QB...but there's no reason that he should see the field even next year after watching that.
He showed zero progression from Ohio State to that 4th quarter.
For it being the first game he even dressed, he wasn't bad. The fact that he has a little bit of velocity on his passes and attempts throws over 4 yards makes him a better prospect than Manuel or Taylor.
That being said, we need to target a QB that has:
1) ACCURACY -- this is the most important attribute, and it can't be taught! The guy just has to have it!
2) Pocket presence
3) The ability to read a defense
Mobility and athleticism are all well and good, but if they have deficiencies in the three aforementioned attributes, they WILL NOT be successful and, historically, they never will be.
"Miami played pretty damn good today and still got their ass kicked."
Cardale had one innacurate throw on the swing pass.
He's far better than EJ.
He should've played the entire game. His fatal flaw will be forcing passes. He could've had a couple more INT's, he has no feel dor anyone in the front 7 droping into a passing lane.

Problem is, those 3 things you listed, are all Cardale's weaknesses. They were weaknesses at Ohio State too.

Yeah, I don't think he's the future.
I can't reiterate enough how important accuracy is for a QB. I have never seen an inaccurate QB suddenly start lacing passes. But I have seen immobile, weak-armed QBs with decent accuracy consistently win games (Chad Pennington, for example). It's the #1 attribute when looking for "the guy."
