With the failure of Vick to impress at all, our "best" options for stop gap
QB next year may be G-Nope Smith or Matt Moore. The hope for Smith is a new
coach coming in with a clear plan for his development and he finally "gets
it" like Alex Smith did with Jim Harbaugh in 2011. As for Moore he really
hasn't played since 2011 but when he did he showed some promise:
espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/11128/matt-mooreAfter scanning the free agent QB's available none of them are doing anything
to change my perception of them (Sanchez, Hoyer, Locker etc). In my view
our best bet is:
- Hire new HC with a vision for our offense and a clear plan to develop QB's
- Keep Smith, he has two years left on his contract and he's cheap
- Sign Moore
- Draft the QB we believe in (Mariota, Winston, Hundley?) and let them develop
- Let Smith and Moore battle it out during the off-season
- Let the rookie do nothing but learn the playbook and hold a clipboard for
a year
I would love to see what this offense could do with an HC with a plan and
some stable play out of the QB position
