MDDawg Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Because I know I'll be starting in the first game or two. Just like with the Browns, rookie QB Herbert took over even earlier than Mayfield in the second game for the Chargers. The rookie was really good in his debut so Tyrod will be stuck on the pine for the rest of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refresh my memory...did Baker come in because of an injury to Tyrod, or not? Can't recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep...Tyrod got concussed down 0-14, Baker came in & won it...even caught a 2 pt PAT from Jarvis! I loved being in the stands for that one...I wasn't going to wear my Baker jersey 'till he was starting, but wore it that night on a whim & WHAM!

TexasAg1969 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 The HC says when Tyrod is well enough he gets his starting job back. I bet that tune changes if the rook is playing lights out until then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 To the topic, I would ask them to sign Josh McCown. He's a great mentoring team mate. He's been in every offensive system known to man. Tough as nails. Doesn't mind being a backup. etc. After how the kid played, putting Tyrod back in would be a Hue Jackson move. Ya don't want to do anything that Hue did with a QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall who either, but I think he gets $12k to stay at home as the 3rd QB. So, he's really not mentoring anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right...so if he is on the PS...that means he is there...not staying home. He needs to mentor Wentz...who seems not to be playing so hot.

WarriorsRpussies Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Guess he suffered a punctured lung by the team doctors right before the game https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/29952469/chargers-qb-tyrod-taylor-lung-punctured-team-doc-sources-say Wonder if he could sue the team if he unable to get back on the field or loses his Starting job permanently because of this, especially if there was any monetary incentives in his contract. I know he sucked here but Baker has nothing but nice things to say about him and he seems like a good person and a true pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HC says TT "ain't mad", but if team goes with Hebert from here on that could change. NFL players tend to want to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsympathetic Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 Should watch the explanation for the pain shot - I'm surprised this injury doesn't happen more often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially it was (or they said it was, to his hand I think), but the whole team picked up immediately when Baker came in so that was that. Tyrod is a backup, period - he is a decent one as backups go, but he is suited best as a #2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumby73 Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 Tyrod's hand was a different game (preseason or opener, i think)... Try this.. click watch on youtube (suggest blowup screen) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
