He has looked really good today against a good defense and has traits to be a starter. hes already under contract and can get us moved on from KC’s massive contract needs. This is our bridge guy. Our biggest needs are dline and corner. If the QB’s dont fall our way in the draft we will have $$$. Hall is fine as a backup. This team as is with a couple pieces added can be a playoff team  next year.

It’s amazing what happens when the OL actually gives a QB time…

I respectfully disagree...Too much pedigree on offense to trust that turn-over machine.

Lions pass D is not that good yet, I don’t think, although they have some nice pieces to build on…

whoops, lol

i still think we could run with him.  Kirk is good, but his time is past here.  Hopefully we can land Penix or Mccarthy and use Mullins for a bridge and let hall develop another year as well.

You don't want him starting. But he's a good backup. Yes, he can run this offense. Just makes too many mistakes to ever be more than a short term starter.

If the lions make a trade or hit in the draft to where they fix their secondary, they'll get to the Superbowl.

Need 0 INTs, he'll get you 2. Need only 2 INTS, he'll get you 3.

Said the same thing as he was throwing that ball. Dude has to throw at least 2 picks.

Lol that's hilarious and cute.  He is a backup period. He is a gunslinger with lots of interceptions. He is the deer in headlights and can be the  rumbling, bumbling, stumbling guy.  He is way too inconsistent and we can't have that.

He's a guy that can put up numbers, but he just makes too many mistakes. He has a tendency to just heave the ball up when the game is on the line. He takes way too many sacks and whenever there is pressure, he always rolls to the right. Maybe with a better running game and a healthier defense you could win a few games with him, but he's a backup.

To be fair to him, the OL had a bad game and Mattison has an uncanny ability to block the wrong guy on blitzes, but I just can't see us winning many games with him.

Absolutely and he throws the ball when he is on the ground. He did that again today. Jefferson and Addison bail him out repeatedly with his wounded duck throws.

To be honest, along with other QBs,  I don't understand how he even got into the NFL.

Anyone still think COUSINS holds the ball too long?

Maybe Penix I’m not sure but yeah. My prevailing thought since Kirk went down is JJ deserves better. Guy is amazing at football.
