What if Zappe Beats out Brissett in TC? Now What?

[DW Toys]

Cousins,
What if Wolfs' master plan of having Brissett as the starting QB for the Pats in 2024 was upset with the reemergence of Bailey Zappe beating him out in TC? ....Oops.

Would they automatically crown Brissett #1 anyway............ because he is a nice guy and the great "mentor" of course?

Was Zappe put into an not-ideal situation with the Mac Jones fiasco in 2023?

We all know now that Zappe is a pain in the ass and hyper competitive... like another young QB......

He's had some big games and some clunkers like another young QB..........Not a big sample but his completion percentage is actually better than Brissett.

I can hear the pundits screaming now and George from Medford or Lonnie from Revere or Waldo from Wareham goes spastic on talk radio.

How many Pats Fans will offer to bring Wolf to the airport?

Wouldn't "Hard Knocks" be perfect for the Pats this year?

One thread at a time Cousin... Nathan Rourke have a better chance.

Brissett has been signed because he won't be a ***** when he's beaten out in camp or out benched after 6 games, i don't even think Zappe is going to be in the room he'll be gone for the same reason as Mac was.

His ego massively outweighs his ability and you don't want him around a young QB you've drafted.

I think that would be a good problem to have, if it ever came to pass.

Why would anyone complain?

 

[ahmed]

That would be awesome!

 

[archstanton543]

Don't worry. He won't.

 

[moosekill]

Not sure where this Zappe has a big ego stuff comes from. You want your qb to be confident. He thought he was better than Mac and he was. He thought he would end up starting and he did. The rest is crap from the Mac fans. If he beats out Brisett more power to him, either he got better or Brisett sucks.

This would be a good sign, because we know Brisset's base level of performance, and if Zappe could outdo him, it would mean Zappe has improved a lot. Which makes him tradeable to some other team for a 3rd.

I would love to see what Rourke can do. He dominated in Canada and wowed last preseason. Of course he eventually got cut, but you never know. Kurt Warner took years to get to the NFL and then was a two time MVP. Jeff Garcia and Jake Delhomme did as well and were pretty good. He’s probably a backup at best, but I’d like to see him get a chance.

That was my thinking regarding Rourke nothing but up.

If that happens, we have a major problem. Assuming we don't have a 1st or 2nd round draft pick to compete here as well.
If Zappe is the starter at any time this season, then the over-hyped "Mayo era" will end in 2 years.

For Zappe to beat out anyone would mean the QB group awfulness factor would have increased exponentially..

 

[sb1]

He thought he was better than Mac and he was

Actually nah he wasn't at all.

Yep nothing good would come from the scenario.

No team wanted him for free when he was cut last summer and much like Jones this past season he was atrocious a lot more often than not.

I don't think anything changed as far as his value goes.

Cousins love your premise but you're hoping with the wrong player. We should hope that Tyquan Thornton have a Lights out camp knowing how premiun the WR position have become.

Yep.

interesting... I never got that kind of read on Zappe... I'm actually kinda shocked to hear that
