Fernando Mendoza showing why he went #1 overall
Gonna be a long learning year for Mendoza. 99.99% of his snaps in college were in the gun. Now he’s in a Kubiak offense that’s going to ask him to be play action heavy and under center most of the time.

I mean the problem with that is Ty’s not going to get any reps as the third quarterback. I mean the backup QB hardly gets any reps. That’s why it’s such a unique position. When teams are deciding on a QB2, they aren’t necessarily picking whoever has the most talent. They are picking someone who can go 6 weeks without getting any meaningful reps in practice, and still be able to come in and steer the ship if called upon. That’s why I’d prefer Jimmy. But it’s also why I think Stetson is better suited than Ty for this season. It’s going to be a year in the classroom and film room for him.
I think Ty has a higher IQ of the game of football then Stetson. He may not have the NFL experience that Stetson has, but I believe Ty will prove that given the time. In other words, it may take Ty less time to learn this system then it took Stetson.
 
Wow, number 81 looks like a HS player out there. One thing the Rams find are small receivers and big slow-ish TEs.
yeah Ferg is pretty slowish

Jimmy Neutron What GIF

I’m not sure I’d agree on the IQ part. Stetson’s no dummy. He ran a pro system in college and got 3x the game experience Ty did, and he got a 3 year head start in McVay’s system. Plus it’s not just about it’s not just about learning the playbook. It’s about to being able to execute the playbook. And if Ty is QB3 he’s just not gonna get the reps to prove that.

It’s why I said the clearest indication that they had no intention of giving Ty a shot at QB2 this season was he didn’t get a single rep with the first team offense on Stafford’s off days. Then you look at how they called the games for each QB in the preseason and I think it’s clear they view this season as a redshirt year for Ty.

100%. I believe football IQ is Ty's superpower. Not sure Stetson has a superpower.

Grit. Stetson’s superpower is grit. He was buried on the depth chart in college and passed over for 5 star recruits like Ty only to come out the other side with 2 national championships. Stetson is used to half his fanbase hating him and wanting to see the shiny new toy take his place. I don’t think anyone pegged him as having an NFL career and he’s about to be named the backup QB for the biggest preseason Super Bowl favorite this century. Say what you want about Stetson, but he’s one mentally tough son of a bitch. And like Jourdan said, he’s just a gamer. That said, I still feel more comfortable with Jimmy just based off experience but if Stetson came in and won us a game or 2 this year I wouldn’t be surprised one bit.

He's too small to ever be a starter.. end of story. Grit is nice and all, but Simpson is the future and maybe the present in a few months if needed.
