But when you barely have time after the snap, your mechanics will fail, you will see ghost, the clock in your head is clearly accelerated because you know you bout to die in 1001. Then you don't make throws cause your receivers are going to A. drop it. B. Tip it to the defender for a pick. or C. catch the ball then fumble it.

Lets see what Kessler looks like but he may ask to sit out after being behind this line.

Isn't it sad that we still have to worry about a QBs mechanics in his 5th season? You're very good at making excuses for him.

As far as signing a vet like Stafford, there is no chance they pay Staffords contract plus the 16.5 million in dead money for Blake plus the rookies QBs deal. Blakes time here is over and I know it's hard to think about but the signs are all there. He's been benched for Kessler and if you think Kessler is bad and will get killed, what does that tell you about Blake? The coaching staff is still trying to win and they think Kessler is better. 

The most logical (and most likely) off season move is to cut Blake, pay him the 16.5 million in dead money, draft a rookie QB in the 1st round and have Kessler or another vet start the season. Or maybe the rookie is good like Wilson, Mayfield, Wentz.... What happened in the past with rookie QBs should play no part on if a rookie plays or not. You take every situation for what it is and don't let the past dictate the future.

I agree a good free agent signing would more than likely  be  too expensive,  but what happens if they don't like any of the QBs in the draft? We need as many picks as we can get for a new OL and the DL guys we can't keep so a trade probably won't happen. Good QBs generally aren't cut and sitting on the couch so where is this new QB gonna come from?
