Does Davis Webb have starter potential? I thought he was a pretty solid QB prospect.

Nobody knows. On top of it being one of the worst seasons ever for the Giants, one of many minor problems was never getting to see Webb play in a game even after being assured we would. The QB situation is way up in the air. Webb was chosen by a GM and HC that are both no longer here.

Yea it was such a huge critical mistake that they never got Webb involved in a few games last year just to take a look at what he could do. Now he's just an X factor. Just another major failure by the previous GM and HC.

As for Shurmur I'm cool with it. That Minny offense seems like a well oiled machine. Yes there is alot of talent there but also considering the QB issues, and the loss of Cook finishing 11th in YPG and 10th in PPG is pretty impressive. 7th in rushing per game with the likes of Murray and Mckinnon. 15 rushing TD's... those are numbers we haven't seen in a long in NY. So yea hire him and hire a competent DC and let's get to rebuilding a contender from the shambles.

Why would you play Davis Webb when:

1. He isn’t ready and hardly got reps in practice

2. He has no weapons and untrustworthy o-line to get a fair view off him. It’s a no win situation for him

But on top of that, 2-3 games is a very small sample. You can’t gauge anything from that. So say he plays well or not so bad during that stretch, you not gonna draft a QB anymore because of the snippet you see from a third round rookie? 

Just does nothing.

Real, meaningful game reps are incredibly valuable experience for a young QB. Is that nothing?

I think he was pretty good in Cleveland. Just wasn't given enough time to build his team.

Putting a concussed Colt McCoy back in the game does not a good coach make.

I could totally see this backfiring. He's another coordinator who doesn't translate well to HC.
