I think we all have pretty much given up on this being some sort of amazing winning season. Now at the very least we can say that we ended things the right way with Cam. That means something to me, and we can figure out the rest after the season. It's only a one year prove it deal, so Fitt is getting smarter after the Sam 5th year option debacle. I just want to see the Rhule era learning and improving from its blunders.

Keeeping Sam long term as our backup QB wouldn't be the worst idea imo. NO team in the NFL will sign him as a starter.

I guess PJ will keep his juice to himself on the sidelines.

If enough of the players/coaches catch COVID then yes (God forbid).

Odds that injury happened in the ATL game? HIGH.

Not if we land Watson in March. Otherwise yes it's wrap until like 2025.

It's looking like Watson or just do something else next season on Sundays.

Oh and we haven't seen the worst of this yet. Wait until they tee off on Darnold and seriously injure him, and we start PJ for the rest of the season. PJ is going to be the ultimate blooper reel. You'll either drink yourself to death or laugh your ass off every Sunday.

We're a team with a terrible QB. That's the worst thing that can happen. Anything else within reason would be better.

Rhule is going to look more and more exhausted as the season progresses, and the players are going to turn on him. Rhule will ride everyone hard to try and fix this, and when the wins don't come guys will start playing not to get hurt.

That's why Rhule needs a guy who will look him in the eyes and tell him: "If you're wrong about this... it's over. You'll be fired. Are you SURE you want the PROVEN loser Sam Darnold. The 3 season looser who looks brain dead... we're all in on him?" That's why you don't give Mr. College Coach a 7 year contract. He thinks he's a football god and untouchable.

Well both Tepper and Rhule are kind of ugly looking and dress like they just wandered out of a trailer, so Tepper liked that they had that in common. Part of the reason he hired him.

it's bad. So bad. This franchise is now wrecked beyond any kind of short term repair barring Watson. Option 1: Get Watson and keep the talent and build the o-line. Try to win now. Option 2: Dump the talent unless they are really young, and draft a rookie QB. Rebuild and try to aim for winning in like 2024. Option 3: Bring in another journeyman veteran QB and go into long term 6-11 QB limbo with no hope in sight.

If Rhule had tied himself to Fields then he would have two free seasons to get it together. Rhule tied himself Sam who is already a proven loser and far from a rookie. Rhule is going to get Brady fired, and them himself.

Rhule was wrong about Teddy. Rhule was wrong about Sam. That's enough to clean house.

Robby threw his helmet in the general direction of Sam. The next throw should be at Rhule.

Huddle Poll: Do we bring in Sam and pick up his 5th year option before he plays for us? Yes: 0% No: 100%

We would be in a much better position had the Huddle made the choices. If you're not in shock over that then I don't know what to tell you. Huddle polls would be better than Rhule and company.

Tepper has just realized that the guys we brought in don't know what they're doing. No clue. I'm sure Tepper is in shock and ready to clean house.

We don't have good coaches. We don't have good talent evaluators. The f-ing Huddle knew better about Sam. The Huddle knew better. Let that sink in. We know more than our talent evaluators. That's sad.

We have NO backup plan for bringing in a PROVEN loser. No one one roster. No one. PJ should be an assistant coach at some backwater high school. We've got nothing. Could have had Fields in the waiting even if he doesn't become a star.

Fields could have been our backup plan if captain interception didn't pan out, but Rhule was so arrogant that he thought our coaching couldn't fail. Just fire Rhule. Start over.
