Nothing I'm reading/hearing is making me feel like Bennett has wrapped up the backup QB role.
Just a random thought.

Definitely not "wrapped up," remains a slight favorite in my opinion, but the kid's been alright and has a shot to take it.

Of course if Ty beats out Stetson we could then sign JG and keep Ty at QB3, who knows?

With a Super Bowl or bust-type approach to the season.. I just don't see any way they roll in without adding a vet like Jimmy G.
 
That team also had all kinds of OL injuries. Which I think demonstrated that even McVay cannot overcome shit ass OL play.
Was it the 49ers last year that had OL injuries and still looked good against us.

McVay knows that how you handle an international game regarding travel and timing is as important as the players and the gameplan. Maybe more so. He's not going to reveal how the team will approach the Melbourne game. Timing of when they leave etc. Smart
Gary Klein is sooo annoying. Always hemming and hawing while tiptoeing around questions.
Me: "C'mon spit it out 'Geery!"'

Here he's just prying for an answer and using the "fans want to know" excuse. No we don't unless someone doesn't make the trip.

It seems pretty clear that he's in the lead for the backup role. He gets QB2 snaps when Stafford practices while Simpson doesn't get any snaps.

What more evidence do we want?

It sure sounds from Nate (including his article today) that Rams want Ty at QB3 this season so it does seem like the choice is Bennett or veteran for QB2.
 
It's fun

Complete Redshirt. Better off

If he doesn't clearly make QB2 in '27 then its a problem.

No matter what, sounds like we're carrying (3) QB's on the roster -- there's no way that either Bennett or Simpson make it past waivers.
Didn't we keep (2) QB's last season? and the year before that?
It's gonna be a tough, tough cut down day this year....

Yes, we are rostering 3. No big. Either one of them would get claimed.

Plenty.
Performance reports from practice are underwhelming.

Yabutt we're gonna lose a few really good players. 53 is already a pretty small roster number. Last 2 years, minus the QB's we were able to keep 51 on the roster, now we gotta cut down to 50.
Prolly some board faves gonna get snatched up :'-(

Thats the way it goes. We're carrying a red-shirted Simpson this year, no way around it. We've carried 3 QB's before, one year it was Bryce Perkins.
 
Yes ... last two years it has been Stafford, Garoppolo and Bennett.

Didnt realize that. Thought we had Bennett on PS, and there were rules protecting against poaching. Lost track somewhere along the way of PS rules.
