Now it's time for Minnesota to figure out to do with it's three-headed monster of QBs not probably good enough to go to the promised land.

 

I don't believe Bradford will be around. He's probably the best of the three (he definitely throws the best ball) but I don't think there's enough confidence in his health.  

 

I'm guessing Bridgewater is going to be targeted as the long-term answer.  I get a sense that Kennum is to Mike Zimmer as Ricky Rubio was to Thibs.  I personally kind of want Keenum to get the job.  Like most Vikings fans, I like Teddy and I hope the best for him but I was never sold he could be a top-15 QB.  Can Keenum?  Maybe not, but he certainly was this year.

Jacksonville's QB situation is going to be incrediably awkward as well. 

 

Everyone was clamoring for them to get a "good" QB, but how can they justify kicking Bortles to the curb after the season he had? Espcially in those 2 games against Pittsburgh & New England.

Very easily. He had a couple good games in a career that has otherwise been terrible. Marrone and Hackett went conservative yesterday because they didn't trust him.

 

Getting rid of Bortles will be a lot less awkward than when the Ravens dumped Trent Dilfer after he actually won the Super Bowl.

Foles is still signed to be the backup next season, but after he wins against Brady, would some team give up a decent pick for him?

I think you know the answer to that.  There's oodles of teams in the NFL who'd panic trade for a QB fresh off a Super Bowl win.  Plus, Foles has already been the subject of a panic trade before, wouldn't be surprised at all to see it happen again if Philly somehow wins.

I mean hell - some dumb team traded a #1 for SAM BRADFORD LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

 

I'd LOL for an entire calendar year if Nick Foles is leading the Vikings onto the field on opening day next year.  I'd LOL for 10 years if the Vikings gave the eagles another #1.

What I am interested in at the beginning of this off-season is...

 

What can the league do to win back fans and reverse the downward trend in TV ratings?

 

How many more players will likely switch to the Vicis Zero1 helmet?

 

What kind of reaction has the Vicis gotten from players so far?

 

What position will have the most depth in the upcoming draft?

 

What will be the next round of rule changes that'll be proposed?

Bortles definitely would’ve passed Dilfer as the one of the worst QBs to win a Super Bowl had things gone better. Dropping him is an easy call.

1st overal Pick????

 

-Has to be a QB?

-Josh Rosen: it would 10000000000% be him but he said he didn't want to play there

-Sam Darnold: May be best option behind Rosen but not worthy of 1st overall pick. Would be a bust like every other Browns rookie QB in my opinion.

-Other QB Choices: Mayfield, Jackson, Allen, Any of them worthy of top spot?

Funny - Andy Reid once traded another of his starting QBs to Washington.

 

Hint - he threw up in the Super Bowl.

Looks like Cousins is done in DC. 

 

Man, I'm so glad I'm only a fan of two D.C. franchises, I can't imagine what it's like being a full-timer. What with the NFL team, the Caps, the Nats, and the Wizards, it's just a constant cycle of incompetence, failure, and choking.

How the hell? $71 million guaranteed to Alex freaking Smith? That's Sam Bradford levels of bad. They might as well have just signed Cousins for that matter.

Wait he was already under contract, right? They didn’t have to extend him right away. Oh gods this is bad - even if he has a decent year or two, it’s still too much to invest in an older qb that while competent, isn’t a franchise guy that’s going to Carry a team on his shoulders. 

 

As an Eagles fan, I love the move, but as a fan of logic and intelligence, it makes me sick.

What is the story with Cousins and his unofficially-former team?  It always seemed like he was gonna be gone but I’ve never known why.  Do they just not think he’s good?  Is he unhappy?
