Just to give you an idea of QBs that will hit the market in Free Agency:

Andy Dalton, Tyrod Taylor, Geno Smith, Old man Joe Flacco, Fig Newton, 2Glove Teddy, Mariota, Trubisquit, & the Harvard Guy (Fitz).

PLAN B could get mediocre to ugly if JW signs elsewhere.

Of course I want us to win it all, but Plan B would still be fun to watch in that the organization dug this hole - now lets see them fix it. And you never know what Book might have, or some guy we may draft in the late rounds or sign off the street. Look at Delhomme, Warner, and for that matter even Drew. I mean there are stories like that every year or three. Maybe we find that diamond in the rough.

If Payton was still here I’d try out Mariota.

I always liked Fitzpatrick. But he’s coming off an injury, isn’t he ?

Yeah. And he's about as old as we are, Boston.

Now that Payton is "semi retired" & out of those coaching meetings, do you see Dennis/Pete C continue to move forward with Taysom as the "Joker" type in this offense?

An interesting question K. They have to do something with him. Doubt he gets cut or traded.

I just wonder if they're as high on him as a possible QB as Payton was. If not, can they use him like Payton did in that joker role?

The guy is an athlete. idk. Make him a TE or a RB or something if he's not gonna be a QB. Lol.

I'm sure he'll see the field one way or another. No way they're gonna pay him that coin to sit the bench and be a #2 QB.

I guess it depends upon who viewed him as what between Payton and Carmichael. Was it Pete or Sean's feeling he could be a starting QB?

And you'll be what, 65, but with the mentality of an 8 year old...
