Re: Kyle Allen named the starter

QBs who got benched and later went on to have successful seasons are not numerous. But it's not unheard of. Matthew Stafford was benched in 2015 during his age 27 season. Kurt Warner got benched for Marc Bulger in St. Louis and went on to make a Super Bowl appearance for the Cardinals.

Most of the time though, it's a Brock Osweiler situation, benched and the dude never does much after.

It's possible this motivates Haskins and he straightens himself out, but more likely we're moving on.

I was talking to another diehard fan yesterday at my local dog park and he brought this up. It’s a looming fact, but I hope Haskins would be receptive to holding a clipboard and learning. I still think he has talent and intangibles which could develop as a contributor.

At the same time I look at Kyle Allen and kinda cringe. He turns the ball over so dang much

THIS ^^^^^

Haskins will probably be traded or released in the off-season, he will jump between teams for a few seasons as a cheap camp arm. His best bet to extend his career is signing on to willingly be the backup. He may turn it around, but history says it is unlikely.
