CP is a great Cardinal, will see if he is back by the end of the season - hope so - so he can retire on his own terms unlike boomer esiason our other Bengal QB. The way I remember it he threw for an NFL record 522 yards in a Cardinal game and the GM benched him so he would not reach his incentive bonus.

I still have hope -will see after the bye

I was at that game. It was @ Washington. We were trailing by 2 touchdowns most of the game, so all we did was pass. Crazy game that we pulled out late that we had no right to win.

To be fair, Stanton has thrown about 500 passes in his NFL career, Gabbert over 1200. Gabbert has been given a starting job twice and lost it, he's a pretty known quantity too unless you just mean in this offense.

and yeah at least the 3rd time the Rams knocked out Palmer


I agree Gabbert is a long shot. You’re likely more familiar with the day-to-day Niners situation, but no one could have developed in Jax. Literally the surrounding cast was horrible. I don’t think they’ve got much to lose. I recall Gabbert looked decent in college and had tools. In my mind Stanton’s top is backup.

Let’s bring him back so this line can get his other arm broken! It’s fine with me if he trots out for an ovation but I’d never let him take another snap behind these mannequins.

At least we'll be in a good position to draft Rosen/Jackson next year. :barf:

I think Gabbert has more talent I'm guessing Arians trusts Stanton more in HIS offense because he knows it. I do hope at some point we see Gabbert get a few starts but I don't expect much.

in 2015 he played 8 games for the 49ers, I think he started 7 of those might have been all 8. He had his best year ever, first time over 60%, best TD to INT ratio(10-7) but it was still very apparent he just wasn't an NFL starter. His year playing for Harbaugh was pretty telling that was a very QB friendly offense it was run based and he was not asked to win games just don't lose them. 8 games he put up decent numbers but he didn't make big plays and he appeared very risk averse. Maybe that was the coaching who knows.

But he has the size, he can move, and he's got a strong enough arm so it would be good to see him get a few starts here to see if he can play in Arians' system that is the opposite of risk averse.

I agree with all this, I just must include does he have the balls to run BAs offense? He's going to have to stand tall in the pocket and take an A$$ whoopin. I have never seen anybody do it tougher than CP did this year.

Why rosen?
Mayfield is far better
Dont care about height wing span arm strenght
Accuracy is the key

My top 3 is
Jackson
Mayfield
Grier

I read a scouting report this morning that came from 2015 and was allegedly taken from the Chicago Bears. In it they specifically said that scouts question Gabberts' toughness. He takes far less sacks than Kaepernick did in the same offense(dramatically less) but that Gabbert was not taking any risks at all and was not standing in the pocket to get the ball downfield he was just dumping the ball off or running. Maybe that's precisely what Harbaugh told him to do after all the sacks and turnovers CK was producing, who knows, but that's apparently what the Bears thought of Gabbert.

Easy solution...put 25lb ankle weights on Gabbert...He'll learn to stay in the pocket, one way or another.

Perhaps Carson can draw some inspiration from Arizona's senior Senator who - up against even more gut-seering odds - continues to do his best at what he's good at as long as he can do it regardless of the outcome.

(I don't agree with Sen McCain on many issues, but am in awe of how he's playing the back nine of his life).

Onward, CP!

The easiest solution would be to tailor your O to the players you have! BA is acting like Whiz with his ******** system. Adjust be creative, thought you were supposed to be an offensive genius? Put Gabbert in and show the world you can actually coach because your job is on the line!

Tip my hat to Palmer. He took a beating week in and week out. His being in the game wasn't the problem with this team... his not being in there will be.

I'm curious to see Gabbert and believe we will sooner rather than later. I suspect this O-Line is going to go through a couple more QB's before the season is over, much like 2014.

Go Cards!!!

We won't have to wait for Stanton strolling along suckville to get on the bench (which by the way is not possible under Arian's objective opinion) because Drew is not half as tough as Palmer. Drew is also mind boggling in the fact that in college he would move often in the pocket and scramble and now just sits there for all those who think he going to be more mobile... we will see the Gab, who is pretty damn tough, and accurate except for the fact his reaction time has always been too slow to keep up with his thoughts in my opinion

Sorry if I missed this but what did Carson break in his arm (what type of fracture)?

CP is a warrior, is tough as they come, but he is really just risking his future to continue playing.

I hope he hangs it up before BA's inept and stubborn offensive philosophy gets him really hurt bad.

Oh if he can come back in 4-6 you can bet BA wants him too lol. By then this tank should be in full blown disaster mode. Would be ultra Cardinal like to bring Palmer back win a few games to screw ourselves out of a good draft pick!
