Bennett not ready to be QB2. I’m bringing in a vet if I’m the Rams.

We are not winning anything with a backup QB this year.

If we were in the playoff picture deep into the season then you could maybe revisit the issue.

But at that point Bennett has a whole season to digest the playbook and learn the NFL game.

If Bennett looked this shitty next preseason then yes, I would consider a proven vet, if the rest of the team is in place.

Rookies gonna rookie. But in fairness, even Stafford throws those same exact interceptions after 13 years in the league.

Ok drama queen
Judging a QB on a meaningless pre-season game is a fools errand
So is name calling people you disagree with.

I’ll wait until the regular season to fully judge your posting. You’re probably just still in preseason form and working yourself into shape.

It’s amazing to me how protective some here are when it comes to Bennett. Do we have a contingent of Bulldog fans I’m not aware of?

Believing we need a better QB2 does not fill me with a sense of dread. Just a relatively minor personnel issue.
Probably more about not getting worked up over practice and preseason. If Stetson gets in a regular season game and sucks we can talk about it.

Not name calling one bit, if you want to start a new thread each day, you need to be prepared to be called on when you're being hypocritical

“Drama queen” isn’t name calling? Please.

There is nothing hypocritical about having a general sense of optimism for the team as a whole, while feeling we can do better at QB2.

No, its a factual depiction. You start a thread, folks disagree and you go off the rails. Wash, rinse, repeat.
You start one thread about how great you are for not having "dread" then a day later you're on the other spectrum
And whining about "name calling"? What are you, 12? Drama, drama, drama

You have a serious reading comprehension problem. You may want to look into a remedial course.

In the meantime, please feel free to ignore my threads.

Good to see the over reactions squad has starters playing in pre-season. And they're producing big time.

What have you seen from him that makes you think he’s our best option behind Stafford?
Equal on equal, he’s been surprisingly solid.

And I trust McVay

Plus he’s gonna be busy getting a new kicker

It’s called practice.
McVay is happy with Bennett but hey, what does he know right?
It’s nice that McVay calls you during the game to give you a candid assessment of the players.

No he speaks to the media. You know, the thing that you aren’t ?
Keep the drama up though, it validates me referring to you this way.

I really get under your skin, huh Sparky? You should just settle down and try to have a good night.

Maybe y’all are having a tough night, what with our guys who will never play football again losing badly to their guys who won’t play again…

Can we just lock this and limit the damage to the forum so we can move forward and focus on team composition and who we bring in to be our kicker?

Won't be the last mental meltdown thread for the week.

For the record, I didn’t suddenly form my opinion of Bennett tonight. I didn’t think much of him as a prospect and, apart from a few moments in the first preseason game, I haven’t seen anything that has made me feel like he’s more than a JAG type.

I’m not saying we should cut him. I’d just like to see another vet on the roster while he (hopefully) develops.
