Whatever you think. Like the AFC east is loaded with HOF QBs. They have one guy and the rest suck. That's just the start.
All of the Qbs in the AFC West is better than ours. All of the Qbs in the NFC West is better than ours. All of the Qbs in the NFC South is better than ours. There isn't a QB shortage. We are just awful at finding said QBs. We need to draft guys and groom them.
Yea Cam Newton is much better. The guy for Oakland is better. The great Jimmy G is much better. Whoever Arz has is better. I don't see that.

Yeah I don’t buy that either YV.

Cousins is better than Carr, Flacco, Winston and Cam. Jimmy G I haven’t seen enough of. But your statement is not accurate whatsoever. Some of those QBs are awful

Carr and Newton and Flacco are better. OK whatever you think. We can have any of those 3 for nothing. Why is that? We do need to draft a guy.

The NFL needs QBs. There's nobody to trade for that has the ability to be a starter. The young guys teams are developing won't be traded. Drew Lock should have been drafted but we passed. I said that during the draft. The cupboard is empty. Cousins was overpaid but there were other teams after him. Why was that? Because teams need QBs. Plus we didn't have a starting QB that was worth anything including this bum Case Keenum who also was overpaid by Denver who wanted Cousins. Found this article below.

There is a quarterback crisis in the NFL.

How do I know? Just look at what the Houston Texas did on Wednesday. They reportedly spent $72 million over four years — with $37 million of that guaranteed — on Brock Osweiler, the now-former Broncos quarterback with seven starts in a four-year career.

I’m no general manager, but that seems like an awful lot of money to pour into a small sample size, one that the Broncos seemed just fine with letting go.

But that’s the state of the NFL today.

See how bad it is. No QB is available. Some on here like Sloter. Come on. He's a body nothing more. I don't have the answer except maybe tanking a season and get the 1st pick. Maybe we should try and trade for Luck if he will play again. Use Cousins as part of the trade. Luck would cost a few no 1 and no 2 picks. That's the only guy I see. But dose he want to play and if so can he still play.
There is no QB crisis. is super bowl winning QB just signed a $20 contract to play for Jacksonville because nobody wanted him.
Foles like Cousins was signed out of desperation. The team Foles took to the Super Bowl didn't want him. How many times has that ever happened?

They already drafted a top QB. They had a good problem. We don't have a QB the caliber of either.

You aren't getting Cam and Carr for nothing. Last I checked a team traded for Flacco. Cousins is untradable in his current state.

Bottom line I don't care what we need to sacrifice even if it means winning no games we need to try and solve this QB problem. How that can be done is a guess. I don't have the answer. Obviously there will be nothing in FA. Top flight QBs won't be cut. That's out. The trade deal has a chance but how many teams trade a top flight QB? It's draft or bust. It's early in the season but we can't beat a good team. It's over. Right now a L is better than a W.
