BlueInCanada Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Let him start the rest of the year at this point, maybe he has a Hinecke like career path. Jones and his neck injury sounds worse then initially reported, might as well shut him down till next year. At this point in the season there's really nothing to gain other than seeing what the backups are capable of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your QB is NOT your running back.. I don't care how athletic he is (Jones isn't anyway). I agree DJ should just sit the rest of the season.

GorillaNJ Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I do think Fromm over Glennon for sure.... I would hate for Jones to be a healthy scratch, even with this nightmare of an offense he gets better on the field than on the sideline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a problem with Jones sitting not just to see what we have in Fromm (I don't think we have much but you never know) but for DJ to get his head space and to heal both physically and mentally.

Mr. P Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Fromm probably won’t play at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Giant Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Yeah I’d start Fromm over Glennon no question. Jones still has to have as much time as possible to show the team he’s the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BronxRik Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Jones is just not the guy. He's just not. He's shown flashes, but that's not enough. And next year's draft is not the draft to go looking for a new QB. We need to do what what we did before Eli: Get a vet in the off season to carry us through. It'll mean another lost season or two, but in the meantime, build up everything else that's lacking. Hell, with a decent line maybe we catch fire with someone else's scrub QB while we wait for the football Gods to send us Eli's replacement.

The excuses are valid, and he HAS shown flashes... but yeah, I've never gotten "the guy" vibes off him. He seems more like a second round pick with potential, and he's in year 3. The last time he really made a play to win us a game was when? His rookie year against the Bucs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the conversation went like this: Kitchens: "Judge why don't we start Fromm and see what the kid can do, maybe he shows something and gives us an option next year, plus it might just save our asses as coaches showing we can coach a kid up. Worst comes to worst we can put Glennon back in next week." Judge: "Well I watched the tapes and took away all the positives from the Miami game and Glennon is clearly the only one out there trusting the process, plus we have a good track record rushing QBs back from concussions" Kitchens: "But!" Judge:"Guys guys guys just trust the process we are going to be alright, alright? We are like a submarine, and I'm like Matthew McConaughey in that submarine movie. We are going to U-571 this season, alright guys" "I watched the tapes" Kitchens: "Wonder if I can get back with the Browns....." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones is our Danny Kannel and Graham until we get Collins or another Eli. Just bite the bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a draftologist but The Value of 2 pics that high I am not sure there is a QB out there worth that price (Who would have even a chance of being available) Maybe a first and a later pic?

It could be too high, maybe we could get later picks back. I’m just saying we have the ammo to get a top qb right now, who has a track record of playing great behind a less than ideal o-line, who I think will be good for five years. Plus we skip the risk of hitting the picks correctly and having to develop them in a draft class that apparently doesn’t have any great qb prospects.
