    Every team in the league with even the slightest hint of a need at QB should have taken Teddy.

    OBJ is going to be a great one, but QB is worth geometrically more than WR.

    But yeah, those two on Cleveland would have been franchise saving.

    Having said that, Teddy is going to benefit massively over the next decade plus (starting next year) playing at least 9 games a year in a dome.

    He might have tougher time in the AFC North.

    Btw, thank the Lord we went 4-12 instead of 2-14.

    Feels SO great right about now.

    Cool, have fun.

    And so glad we beat the Titans and Dolphins. The morale boost was really worth it.

    Alright, we need to trade a mid rounder for Zach Mettenberger. He's going to be a top 15 starter.

    Same thing happened with Bortles last season, when he tore apart back ups. I foolishy fell victim to his performance against crappy back ups in meaningless pre season games. Mettenberger's the same QB who held back an offense with Lae'l Collins, Jermey Hill, Jarvis Landy, and he missed Odell Beckham a ton at LSU.

    Only preseason, but with the exception of one typical rookie mistake ,Mariota was very impressive under center (I don't know why anyone thought this would be a problem ), climbed the pocket well, with fairly good movement, and he didn't bail against pressure when Greg Williams brought the house .

    He's better than Geno, more ready than Petty and has more long term potential than Fitz. If we can at least get him into the room I think it improves the team.

    That one 35 yard completion on the run was beautiful.

    I'd rather have him than Geno but how many backup QBs are we gonna collect. He can't read defenses. BigSnacks post is on point, if he was really a good QB he would have exploded at LSU with Hill, Beckham Jr., and Landry. He's got a good arm so he throws deep a lot and it looks good but he can't consistently sustain drives.

    We'll keep collecting backups until one of them turns into a starter dammit.

    Nice first drive.

    He looks like he's back in college.

    He could be a player.

    I heard a little chatter earlier in the offseason that the Bengals were really impressed with McCarron and think he can be a starter for them if Dalton can't get them over the hump.

    Great opening drive for Jameis. Amazing how confident and vocal he is at the line of scrimmage, you don't see that from too many rookies.

    I called that a month ago. I think AJ will be their starter by next season.

    Winston seeing the field, calling plenty of audibles - looking good
