Should Rattler be our starter in 2025?

Guys like Jimmy Garappolo, Carson Palmer, Geno Smith, Ryan Tannehill, and Blake Bortles have won 10 games in a season too. None of those guys would be worth $40-$50 if their primes were today either. And to be clear, I do not think Carr is a worse QB than Rattler as it stands today. I just know that Carr isn't the future and if we're looking toward the future we have to look elsewhere while clearing cap and seeing if Rattler can develop. I also do not care about the results of the 2025 season. I care about getting back to feeling like we have a shot when the season starts every year. That is going to take some big changes and having a really expensive mediocre QB doesn't fit in with the changes that I think are needed. A second year guy with a little bit of upside making rookie minimum fits much better.
When you just have a throw a way season you also throw away the tail end of the careers of AK , DD Mathieu Cam. All have something left in the tank , maybe not at their prime level but especially AK has at least 2 more yrs at a near elite level.

If we cut DC we will have no $ to upgrade anywhere and we would probably have to restructure almost every contract to be cap compliant

You're looking at 2 yrs min of just sucking

Jimmy G also went to a SB
