Sounding like Brady Cook will be starting and Martinez will be backing him up. Fields and Taylor were both DNP today. Mougey really wants Mendoza!
I am 100% on board with this if it’s the plan Fields - no reason to see him again…we know he sucks even if he doesn’t Taylor - again, probably the best QB on our roster, but he gets hurt too often and at this point, there is like no upside to him at all Play Cook and see if he can show flashes…maybe his ceiling is backup next year…if so, fine it is what it is, but let’s see if he can show anything over these last few games Martinez can back up Cook…just to have a body in at QB if Cook goes down
Jesus Christ. Who's had a worst QB room this year outside the Jets? Maybe the Saints? At least those dude actually got drafted
Who was that running QB that took over for Zach Wilson one game and he drove the team down the field? While the TV kept on showing Wilson's defeated face. Edit: Chris Streveler
The crazy thing is, Cook and Martinez may actually be our best options either way. Tyrod is broken physically and Fields mentally. I mean Tyrod literally got hurt on a handoff. And the fragility may be impacting his play too - he looked like total garbage even before he got hurt. And I think Cook and Martinez can pass for more than 60 yards a game, which is better than most Fields' games. Crazy to think about it but the preseason PS QB we had are in fact our best options now, even though Fields and Tyrod are not really dealing with anything serious. They are just done at this point.
CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! NOW we'll get to see how much practicing for a Shanahan lead team will HELP Martinez! It's bad out there right now. You got the Colts bringing in a 44 year old Rivers, the Jets are doing a full circle with Martinez and we're all talking about the need to NOT burn major draft capital to trade up for "not sures" and "maybe's" in the draft. Grabbing my bucket o' Popcorn!
Shhhhhhhhh...don't even FLOAT that out there. Bad enough we're all clamoring for Brady freakin' Cook. LOL!
