Thing is, a lot of Skylar Thompson types go out against the scrubs and don't do anything. 

It's still the NFL.

Skylar is getting the second half of this final preseason game, he's thrown three touchdowns in his four drives to this point. 

Radio Jimmy still doesn't think Miami can keep 3 QB.  "Is he going to be your starter in the next five years?  There's your answer."  His partner Joe believes he's forced his way in.

Meanwhile, Bridgewater was 4/10 for 74, 0 TD with the twos tonight.

They sure as eff don’t need Bridgewater. I can see trading Sky but not cutting him.

Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

I’m kind of embarrassed how well this turned out. So happy for him. Go cats!

There were some great videos in that barstool article

This incompletion because of pass interference may have been his best throw yet.

Sure he got drafted and showed out for pre season and likely made the 53 man roster, but he will never be a starter.  Even if he does become a starter he will never be in the hall of fame.

I've seen more comments that they trade Bridgewater as he probably has more immediate trade value.

He’s guaranteed  6.5 mill this year. Dolphins would be dumb af not to try and keep a young, cheap talent vs throwing Teddy to the Texans

Can't wait until game 5 when Tua goes down and Skylar is just dropping bombs to Tyreek all over the field.

I'm going to be really conflicted if the chefs play the fins in the playoffs and Skylar is their starting QB. I will still root for the chefs but it's a win win situation.

Doubt they have the cap space, but this would be a great trade to mention to the Browns.

This is amazing.

That has a bit of an asterisk on it, because he's only comparing qualifiers, meaning 10 attempts per game.  Sam Ehlinger had a better rating, but only 29 attempts.

Here's some McDaniels coachspeak from today's presser:
Quote
(On QB Skylar Thompson and making a case for a third quarterback?) – "He's made it tough, hasn't he? No, I think those type of players that are able to, as rookies, come in and contribute, are always really exciting, and it's more rare that you see a quarterback doing that. It's more than just his quarterback rating and his completion percentage. He has owned the responsibility of the quarterback in terms of all the other players on the field with him. He's made them better by helping them get aligned, and we've had very few procedural issues. And so I think in preseason football, there are a lot of quarterbacks that get opportunities. It's rare that a guy can be a seventh-round draft pick and people outside of the organization actually know his name. I think he's opened eyes with the way he's played, and it's made that situation very tricky, in terms of whether or not you can try to have him on practice squad or keep him on the 53 (-man roster). But you know, much like a lot of players, I think he – especially one of the things I was most happy with in this past game is pretty much all the participants can hold their head high and stand on what they've done in the preseason, with the closing of it being last night. And he should hold his head high and hopefully rest easy because he has done quite literally everything you can to be a part of this team."
