I think there's exceptions to any rule, but I fully believe situations ruin QB's. Like yeah, probably nothing would've turned Lance into something, but you probably could've dumped the majority of 1st round QB's from the last decade with Andy Reid and gotten a good franchise QB out of them, you could've dumped almost any successful one on the Bears and they'd end up dogshit, broken shells of men.

Looking at the Russ contract on a lark and I didn't realize the Broncos actually have an out coming up. 2024: $17m base salary, fully guaranteed 2025: $37m base salary, fully guaranteed only if he's on the roster at the beginning of the new league year. Broncos can cut him and "only" have to deal with a dead cap hit of.... $85m next year. Could theoretically trade him and a pick to get him off the books, and the new team either negotiates a deal to make that 2025 number not stupid or just cuts him and pays $17m for a draft pick.

a neat cape posted:Problem is Russ is actually playing well now I'm also wrong anyway, OTC rolled a guaranteed option bonus into SB so the numbers are wrong. Broncos are on the hook for a guaranteed $24m Option bonus next year, so it'd be damned tough to find a buyer for that monstrosity.

I dunno, some fancy test said he has Vince Young brain, he'll probably bust.

syzpid posted:I swear the answer to this is incredibly dumb. Someone tried to keep one of the leagues top offenses down by controlling the ball. They had all these big long drives that ate a ton of clock but couldn't get in the end zone. The good offense just came in, ran 3-4 long plays and scored TDs every drive. I think the time difference was 45-15 but the team that won time of possession lost by a lot. Pretty much, Colts - Dolphins 2009

It is somewhat wild to me that Steve Smith ended up with a post playing media career, he has the angriest linebacker-esque view of the world.

So we're all in agreement the owner made him do that right?

Of course they will. Backup QB is a land of retreads and no hopers, he'll have plenty of suitors who want to see if they can unfuck him, as will Zach Wilson, as will Mac Jones. Top prospects really gotta prove they ain't got it before they're done. You gotta be JaMarcus level suck rear end to not get at least a 2nd chance.

I would like to mention at this point that Christian Ponder was on 3 teams after the Vikings.
