Its pretty simple and straight forward IMO....

I still contend that unless we are bringing in a big time bona-fide quarterback, like a Joe Burrow, then why wouldn't you go back to McCarthy as your starter? I'm not making a move for a lateral type quarterback that's a fringe starter not likely capable of post season success. Ditto on Wentz. Bring him back as the primary backup. KOC really put him in a shitty position trotting him out there and continuing to call throws, but he's a high end veteran with a year in the system under his belt. He's exactly what you'd want as the backup to McCarthy. If they want to roll the dice on a late round draft pick to challenge Brosmer for the 3rd spot, have at it, but otherwise running it back is probably the best idea.

I think we can do better then Wentz at back-up....I hope so anyhow.

I wouldnt be opposed to running it back with JJ, we need clarity on the position with him - once and for all. 

Shame we dont have it yet.

Bingo. Aim higher (Burrow, Jackson, Hurts, Herbert) or aim lower and name McCarthy the starter. If we end up with a Mac Jones-level of QB2 that's okay, but he should be THE QB2. Some kind of open competition between a C level QB with A level potential (JJM) and a C+ level QB with B- potential is the last thing I wanna see.

Just a complete hunch, but based on the way KOC talked about him and his needing to work on his mechanics when he was coming back from injury and also the jab he made about how he ran into the end zone, I feel as though he has been frustrated with him. Just based on his injury history, I fully expect them to be very aggressive in getting a very competent backup and would not be surprised if they make it an open completion.

I think unless Flores makes him look foolish, Malik Willis is going to get a starting job somewhere and the money that goes with it.

So what happens when Flores makes him look foolish?
