Mayo Made The Right Call, The Only Call - Brissett over Maye

[PatsFan2]

This contradicts the argument that they aren’t playing maye to protect him because of the OL.
They appear to think the only thing standing in Mayes way is Jacoby Brissett and Mayo even went it of his way to say that he doesn’t want Brissett to worry that Maye is gaining on him, so Maye appears to not even be in competition to play. Our top draft pick has been designated clipboard holder and scout team QB. What a tremendous plan to develop our #1 asset.

Good thing injuries is a part of this game Mayo is Starting a QB that gives us the least chance to win. It's gonna be fun watching Caleb W - J Daniels and Bo Nix play from day 1.

 

[PatsFan2]

It’s not a non-story. The argument for the not starting Maye week 1 is that’s the plan ! He is not ready, he hasn’t seen enough NFL defense on film, his mechanic are still imperfect, the OL is awful, we don’t want to risk an injury.

So now if Brissett gets injured week 1, the plan doesn’t matter anymore and they are fine putting Maye in behind the same awful OL, fine with risking an injury, fine with him not have perfect mechanics. If find that contradicting.

Either wait until he is ready in your mind and play somebody else if Brissett is injured or if you think Maye is ready to play week 2 if Brissett is injured then Maye should have been starting week 1.

I'm convinced the second Maye goes behind Center in the Regular Season will be his last time holding a clipboard.

Denver figured out his to get Nix ready to play. We didn’t really even try to get Maye ready.

Don’t count on that. Mayo has already said he doesn’t want brissett looking over his shoulder. So expect a lot of “Jacoby is our starting Qb, we are 100% behind him” press conferences after Maye does his mop of duty in blowouts.

There just isn't anything noteworthy about an NFL team's 'plan' changing due to injury.

I expect one of our Tackles *coughs* Chukwuma - Onwenu or Lowe to get Brissett hurt all are playing out of position.

I haven't listened to full Mayo Presser yet and the little I've force myself to hear color me unimpressed.

He sounded like a guy who knew he told the truth (Maye won the job) now trying to dance around why he has to present something else as the truth.
He sounded more concerned with Brissets mindset around this than Mayes.

As Fans we deserve better than Brissett if they needed a one year Bridge QB get somebody better. We are a win on everybody's schedule with Brissett it has come to that.

Why would no scapegoat be needed if they go 1-16?

How could you possibly need a scapegoat for a football player getting injured?

Sending out a rookie QB when your OL is in as bad shape as ours is this week and having him get injured is a foreseeable circumstance, and one for which you need a scapegoat. In a s similar vein, purposely not having backups in the defensive front seven, and then doing poorly because of injury is a foreseeable circumstance and one for which you need a scapegoat.

aaah, it is all about entertaining the fans, and even the fans of other teams

Apparently isn't about the best plan to get to the playoffs, championship or the Super Bowl.

sucking and starting the season 0-8 is a forseeable circumstance. Players getting injured is not.

If you honestly believe this team decided it’s starting qb based upon it being non-negotiable to put Maye in a game because of the OL there are 2 things I would say.
1) Whoever is responsible for that ring the case should be fired today and
2) how can that be true if they have said brissett is injured on the first play Maye goes in?

ROFL

Nix was the best prepared QB coming out of college, by far.

For you, there is only black and white.

PLAN A is for Brissett to play for a few games, and for the Offense to play the first quarter developing the Offense and developing our OL. As Belichick used to say, the first quarter is an extended pre-season. Under this plan, Brissett would most likely start Game 5.
=========
PLAN B

Just because there is a Plan A doesn't mean that events that might change this plan.

One of those events is Brissett getting injured, in which case Maye would play. Perhaps this wasn't decided until the team was comfortable that they had in fact gotten him ready to play earlier than Game 5, if necessary.
===============
Another possible contingency COULD have occurred, If the OL developed early in camp, and was playing reasonably well and consistently, Maye MIGHT HAVE started Game 1.

Well I don’t make things up to create gray.

There is no plan then!

They are saying since march that they have a plan, they don’t want to rush him etc and that they will not deviate from the plan but somehow if Jakoby gets injured in week 1 they are are ok throwing the plan away even if Maye isn’t ready? It makes no sense at all!

if the plan was not to rush him until he is ready, they should have kept a veteran backup to take over if Brissett gets injured. If Maye is ready to play week 2 if Brissett is injured then it means he is ready to play week 1 and he should have started.

I'm sorry it doesn't make sense to you. I guess we just see it differently. Oftentimes in life we've all had to fall back to plan B, or D due to circumstances beyond our control. It just is what it is. I'm not looking for an argument but if you are then try Andy, he lives for them. Unless ofc this is another Andy sock puppet account in which case congrats I guess, you tricked me into engaging with you.

The plan is for JB not to get injured, if he does what other choice do they have?
