Lions reward is to host the NFL draft.

His record is pointless, who was winning with what the Bengals were playing offering as a team last year ? I heard on Sunday teams contacted the Lions in regards to Driskell being available via a trade before the deadline .
I think this kid has something , talented kid ,smart kid, good arm , tall , thick , athletic and showed well Sunday under bad circumstances and offers a piece of the game Stafford lacks in scrambling or RPO designed runs .
The pressure Driskel faced Sunday was silly & got little help from receivers with 3 drops & was sacked, hurried or hit on 14 of his 46 drop backs , that’s almost 1 out of every 3 attempts . I can’t see any reason whatsoever to even consider Kap with what Driskel brings to the table.

I would do it if this was the case and we got a guarantee that all of our games would be called fairly and evenly in 2020 and beyond & the game decided on the field by the players . I would love the idea that we controlled the outcomes of games with actual play with no bias and no steering .

Ugh. I think 27 is old for never being taken seriously in this league. It’s the NFL, if he had the talent to be a starter, someone would have scooped him up besides the Lions. Jimmy G rode the pine in New England and got handed 30 million a year based on his abilities. Driskel is a league minimum clipboard holder.

I think 32 isn’t old for someone with a fresh body that has taken his team to a super bowl.

If this is the case or if the Lions get the draft at any point I’m going … would not miss it . Sadly I was going to meet up with SheLion in Philly for the draft but she was to sick . I attended the Draft for 12 of the last 14 years it was in NY…Hopefully 2022 in Detroit

Hahahaha …
You mean 32 is not to old for a QB that was taken to the Superbowl by his team .

To be fair Kap’s first ever playoff game was incredible beating the Packers , he beat the Packers almost by himself

Kap could do all of that. You are painting with a brush that doesn’t really apply to him.

Whatever, guy. Dude has 4 playoff wins. I’ll take that experience over David ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  Blows.

Kap could do all of what ? Some of Kap’s passes were some of the worst least accurate passes I’ve ever seen , almost to the point he had to push passes instead of throwing them in order to be accurate.
Kap’s arm strength as it translated to the field of play was the equivalent of a arms length penis in porn that even Viagra could not get up …useless

Yes, some of his passes were wildly inaccurate…the same goes for Cam Newton and a list of other QBs. I’m not trying to paint some picture that Kap was a great QB. He had issues and they finally caught up with him. I have zero desire to have him even as a backup QB. You are just painting with a brush that’s a little too extreme vs what his actual play was like.

Tim Tebow has a playoff win, would you take him over Stafford too?

I really have little to no value for Kap and my opinion was the same before all the nonsense , he was a gimmick QB in gimmick scheme who succeeded with a hell of a Run Game and Defense, never offered anymore to any team that would not structure such an offense around him.
He could backup a very few QB’s in this league under the offenses that are run and even then you would have to adjust the Offense much more to a RPO type . He is just not a fit for most teams with his incredibly poor accuracy and bad pass attempts.
He is not on a roster because he can’t deliver what a team needs . Kneeling and drama aside if the guy had real talent for the position, and could self evaluate what he could do and accept being a 2nd or 3rd string guy he would have been picked up like Brett Hundley was to BU Murray

Kap isn’t on a roster because of non-football reasons.

THIS ISN’T ABOUT STAFFORD!!! It’s about a potential back up position. Why are people so butthurt about CK that they don’t think it’s possible he’s better than David Blough or David Fales or Jake Rudock or whatever trash we keep signing?

Support that take , unless you mean his price is an issue , his expectations for playing time etc…I will adjust my stance , Kap is not on a roster because Kap thinks he is more then he is and his talent does not justify anything other than BU money …He wanted HUGE money from the DEFUNKED league so we can assume he wants to be paid .

He sucks , sucked when he was in the league , he will certainly suck now. What would the positives be for the Lions with Kap. What would Kap offer that makes us better ? I think Kap is a piece of shit , I also think V.Burfict is a piece of shit as well as M.Vick and would welcome both to the team as they would add something (M.Vick I’m guessing at this point) …Kap offers nothing

Who’s butthurt? I am just pointing out the hypocrisy in your posts.

Look I am done responding to you after this. I said this on another message board. I hope that some team signs him and he winds up playing. He goes out and does well then good for him and he can move on and possible continue to be on that team or another team. Or (what I would expect) he goes out and sucks and that team can use his performance as a reason to dump him and this whole story goes bye-bye. Like it should have 2 years ago.

Everybody is ignoring the fact that Kaperdick does not want to be a backup and only wants starting QB money.

He could have been on a team or two already if he was willing to be a backup.

He also refuses to agree not to do kneel during the anthem

F*ck him

Well, there’s no hypocrisy because I never said a word about taking CK or anyone over Stafford. I simply made the point that our back up QB situation is ridiculously stupid and a revolving door of shit because Quinn dropped the ball and forgot about it. Then he had no name, no talent QBs running thru Allen Park for weeks after the season started, because he finally realized he forgot to get a back up QB for his franchise QB coming off a broken back. So yes, I would explore ALL options to improve on this Jeff Driskel era. A guy Quinn didn’t know of until 6 weeks ago.

This is a false narrative. He was an above average starter for the 49ers until the end, and sometimes he was great. His game against GB was one of the best performances I’ve ever seen from a QB (and I was watching closely, because FTP). They didn’t win in spite of him, but they didn’t always win because of him either. But he certainly didn’t suck.

But people say he sucked now because they don’t like him. I don’t like him either, and I really don’t want the circus to come to town from signing him. But to say that he sucked is just changing the truth.
