Damn that poo.

Very little reason to tank this year with no sure-fire QB to target. As long as we get a top OL prospect like Charles Cross or Tyler Linderbaum (which should be doable in the top-10) I'm good with waiting for a QB next year. With Rhule likely coming back it's not out of the realm of possibility that we end up in position to take a top QB in 2023. Hopefully the OL has improved by then, too.

I like Pickett a lot and would have no issue taking him top-10, but we MUST address the OL before putting a rookie QB on the field.

I've been doing quite a bit of research on Desmond Ridder lately and I'm more impressed than I expected to be. I keep hearing that he's got accuracy issues, but I don't see it. He's got some consistency of accuracy issues at times, but he absolutely can throw an accurate ball. The inconsistency can be worked on. I won't be surprised if he ends up going in the 1st round despite a lot of talk about him being more of a 2nd round prospect.

Having a punter that good is actually a huge advantage as it almost automatically gives you the field position edge in every game. That said, taking a punter (even Ray Guy 2.0) before the 5th or 6th round is a luxury pick we can't afford to make. That said, we did draft a fuging long snapper last year so you never know. I can see some playoff team with a stacked roster and few needs taking him in the 2nd or 3rd round.

You think he fell apart after one week? He looked really solid against Washington. It's no coencedence that the more of this ass juice offense he learns the worse he gets.

Defensive coaches are fine if they bring in someone who can run the offense effectively. Preferably someone old enough that they're not poached for a HC job after a little success.

Hell no.

Daboll or Eberfleus are my picks. I also like Kellen Moore, but his inexperience does give me some pause.

The coaching staff has flat-out lost this team. Time for a reboot.

Brady Christensen made PFF's team of the week as well. Hopefully he'll finally get the starting job.

Not with the extra game this year. I think 9-8 is the likely floor and I'm not sure it won't be possible for an 8-9 team to sneak in under the right set of circumstances. We need to beat MIA, ATL, NO, and win one of the TB/BUF/TB games and we can absolutely still get in. It's entirely possible that the Bucs have clinched everything they can by week 18 and end up resting their starters, too.

How is this on Rhule? So he wasted a timeout; it's not the first time. Rivera would waste timeouts, too. That didn't cost us the game. We had a QB we signed 10 days ago playing a great game and the effort was certainly there on offense and special teams. Unfortunately, the defense laid an egg. I still am MUCH more optimistic coming off this loss than I was coming off the win over Atlanta a few weeks ago because the defense isn't going to play this poorly on a regular basis. On the other hand, we actually have a real NFL-caliber starting QB, which we haven't been able to say in a long while.

This loss is on the defense. Cam played very well, especially considering he only signed 10 days ago. The OL was even decent overall. The D needed to step up against a backup QB and couldn't get the job done. To quote an old friend, "it is what it is."

That poo ought to be illegal. I don't know how celebrities deal with that.

Next to bringing Cam back Shaq's play has been the biggest surprise on the season, IMO.

Nutter? This guy's a genius!

I just can't understand why they won't play Brady Christensen. He can't possibly be any worse than Daley.

Who's starting at left tackle?

Try as I might, I just can't get excited for Sam Howell. He looks like a good college QB who will be average at best in the NFL.

Kenny Pickett looks the most like an NFL QB to me. The more I see of him, the more I like him.

Well, he is 32 years old now. This isn't the same college kid we drafted in 2011.

Anyone who expects the Cam of 2015 (or even 2017) is setting themselves up for disappointment. Plus, our OL is still our OL; it's not like they can block long enough for receivers to get downfield anyway. That said, if Cam can just be a decent game-manager as a passer while giving us a boost as a runner it's a huge improvement over Darnold and with our defense that may be enough to get us into the playoffs. One thing I find interesting is the fact that, reportedly, the team wanted Cam to sign a 2-year deal. That tells me that maybe the plan was to let Cam serve as a bridge QB until we can draft our QB of the future in 2023, given the weak QB class next year. It'd also give us time to build up the OL before throwing a rookie out there. If that's the case then I think it's entirely possible that Cam is re-signed in the offseason for at least another year, baring a really poor showing for the rest of this year.

Maybe, but at the same time is he really better than Jackson, Gilmore, or Bouye right now? I can buy the "long-term move" argument with Henderson, but it is disappointing that he hasn't even gotten a jersey the last few weeks.

If he's healthy and still in playing shape, absolutely.
