If Darnold is our week 1 starter then we'll have a huge problem

No it'll just mean he beat out Trey. If that happens, so be it. I want the better QB between Darnold and Trey to keep the seat warm for Brock.

Right. I mean, just look at how the season was over when we had to turn to a freaking rookie 7th round pick!

Purdy's not going to be ready for the season. They always give these optimistic time tables, but we all know how it goes. Sam will be an okay QB2 in case Trey gets injured running up the middle again.

You are assuming Trey is better than Darnold. So far Darnold has shown he is more efficient, has a higher completion ratio, has more NFL and college experience. Darnold is better so far on paper in the NFL then Trey so the off season competition between them may show Trey up to be not much at all. They are both 3rd picks in the draft except one has a lot more football experience. We shall see.

Only reason I say that is because its just a one year deal. They don't seem that committed to him. It could be a Josh Rosen signing all over again where they just cut bait

Dude Lance hasn't shown s**t. But I get that Lance will be given every opportunity to start so chill out man.

It was once a good laugh that Brock Purdy could start his rookie season. Any is possible so stop being a weirdo yourself.

He will be backup to backup. Dude stinks and that's where he belongs at this point. Anyone talking about him being the starter out of camp is just being weird at this point.

It's not weird to imagine Darnold playing a few games in a pinch, to bridge to Purdy.

You give all the reps to Lance. You evaluate his progress. If he's not playing well, and Darnold is playing well, you don't HAVE to play him until Purdy returns. A couple of games is not a real chance for Lance to develop anyway. You play the best QB you have until Purdy is ready. Trey has an opportunity to be that guy, and the starter going forward even when Purdy is healthy, depending on how he's playing.

Wasn't it you that already mentioned this scenario before? They're acting like it's crazy but I've seen Darnold beating out Trey mentioned as a possibility before
