No. He said he expect both guys to get some first string reps…he didn't say they would be splitting them.

That is, by definition, splitting reps.

My guess from the fairly obvious context is NY is using "splitting" to mean "splitting in half."

You don't need a quote. If you look at the situation it's made sense for awhile.

They wanted to move on from Jimmy, and while he was injured the guy they spent 3 firsts on to do so had his best game against the Texans. The perfect time to make the transition with the fan base behind it. Instead they rush Jimmy back before he's 100% and bench Trey. That was a red flag.

Bringing Jimmy back with incentives was a red flag and so was the Darnold signing. You just had to accept it.

The play calling is another red flag. Everybody just says have him run the Jimmy/Purdy offense, but the reason he's not allowed is lack of confidence. I've seen this coming from miles away. The practice reports, the tape, it all lines up. He hasn't been what they thought he would be.

This is right on, Charlie.

Taking the next step, why would Lynch and Shanahan announce who the starting quarterback is this early. Does that sound like them? Does it give them a competitive advantage? They don't need to do that. The opposite is true. Why not keep everybody motivated with the carrot of the starting job dangling out there? I can't think of another reason other than to invite trade offers. Who thinks there will not be inquiries now?

And as for saying the book is still out on Brock. It's not. And here's the reason why. He makes the right decisions, and goes to the right place with the ball. Is there room for improvement in the execution. Sure there is. Is there even room for improvement in going to the right place? Absoluteley, there is. But that process is already at a very high level, and while there are always missed opportunities and better options, Kyle trusts him not to make WTF plays, and puts the ball in his hands when those plays would be very costly, and that's something we've Never seen during Kyle's tenure here. That quick mind and good judgement does not go away, and Kyle and John recognize a gem when they see one. Time for the fans to catch up. Brock Purdy will only get better.

Bahaha cool if we go out to dinner and you guys pay for 90% of the bill. I'll call that "splitting" it 😉

x = purdy / darnold
y = lance
z = jackson
translation
x = fall back plan
y = trade bait
z = dream scenario

here we go

Yeah like most people in the world…narratives though

Was RGIII Kyle's dream scenario?

the real math:

does x + y + z add up to 17 or not?

just reading the tea leaves. your third pick overall has to battle with sam darnold for starting reps. in my opinion ... he's a goner. nothing against trey , i want him to be our starting QB, But that is what kyles statements say to me. By the way jackson is better than RGIII in my opinion

Jackson minus a bunch of picks. $200M gone thus demolishing the roster. While it would be sick to see…I think they're gonna be just fine without him

64

Now I'm getting that if healthy Purdy is QB1 based off what he's shown

There will be an offseason competition for QB2 w which I expect Trey to win based off being year three in this system.

Brock may or may not practice prior to week 1 thus it's up in the air if he starts week one or not dependent upon his health

QB2 may start week one through however long and if QB2 is winning he may be able to claim QB1 but what we do know is a healthy Brock is QB1 rightfully so based on what we've seen in the win column

How about we wait to see training camp before assuming anything? It's March lol. We should be talking about the draft

I don't think Jackson would fit well in Kyle's system He would have to learn to stay in the pocket or rollout and pass and not run so much. Anyway I think he would be way too expensive.
