If only we knew what we know now. I agree, Teddy is a stopgap kind of guy and an uber conservative game manager who you're always looking to upgrade from - but that is worlds better than what we have with Darnold, and sadly, many of us already knew that's what Sam was and always has been. A fuging bum. But what we've gleaned from the last season and a half is that many of Teddy'a problems weren't his problems at all - Brady is an atrocious playcaller and this staff sucks ass across the board.

Just give them the TD and end our misery. Please. Just please.

He was playing quite a bit earlier. I noticed him because he kept giving up big catches.

We are losing to a 1-5 team with no WRs, no OL, and no RB and a defense that gave up 30+ points last week. Enjoy your week.

IDGAF what the social media and PR team do anymore. The honeymoon is over and these assholes suck at their jobs. We were conned and its time to cut bait. Tepper screwed up big time on this gamble.

When teams start running that poo on you and have Daniel fuging Jones snagging balls out of the air like OBJ, it's time to can these assholes. I've seen enough.

Too bad we're the ones that have to suffer for their incompetence.

If Darnold isn't benched by the end of this game, this staff fully seals their fate as Fox/Rivera redux, except an even worse, diet college version.

But we have position versatility!

They have to sit Darnold. He was wide open and had protection and Darnold threw it two yards behind him. He's got to sit. Period.

Daley's first play and he completely whiffed looking at the wrong assignment. Remember the mad genius Rhule playing guys at 4 different positions on the OL in the preseason? That worked out well.

Yup, but its because the rest of the NFL have a year's worth of tape and tendencies on Brady and this staff now. They're rah-rah college poo got figured out and they put the nail in their own coffin by dumping Cam and then trying to replace him with two retreads with glaring holes in their games. Oh well, this fanbase is used to waiting on next year, so back to our usual programming.

Brady is such a fuging idiot. This is so hard to watch. If the average fan at home is 90% sure of what you're going to run, you can guarantee the other team does. This whole staff needs to go.

Well look at that. It only took like 7 weeks, and Brady discovered what quick routes to get the ball out like slants are.

BUT DBO!!!

I would draft a HS QB right now over fuging Darnold. That being said, Howell will be a good NFL QB, but I wouldn't take him in the top 10. I probably wouldn't even take him in the first round.

While I agree, it's not just the QBs, its how the whole offense is being ran. Darnold sucks, but is Jalen Hurts a good QB? The Eagles schemed to his strengths and pulled away at the end. Brady is a fuging idiot.

And every week, we see teams with less offensive talent outscheme this college coaching staff like nobody's business. Just throw the whole thing away and start over.

Yeah, its time for Darnold to sit. There is no fixing this piece of poo. Go sell insurance or something bc you're done. Bring PJ in now and make the move for Watson.

But my point is, Rhule isn't saying vague nothings. Initially, many here appreciated his candor and found his transparency refreshing. He has been blatantly honest more often than not in pressers, so it's not just a bunch of Rivera's "have to execute" or Fox's "it is what it is." Maybe y'all haven't watched them in their entirety, or maybe you just didn't catch it if you did, but he has actually went into Xs and Os and scheme-specific stuff in these. Foc and Rivera never did that. They also always intentionally avoided discussing injuries and availability as much as possible. Rhule seems to just speak off the cuff and sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't.

I'll ignore your veiled insults and just have you compare his presser to Fox or Rivera. His predecessors literally said the same thing every week - a whole lot of vague nothing. You couldn't read anything from their presser one way or another. It has nothing to do with believing everything he says, it's that he says too much. Period.

Like when CMC was ready? Or Henderson? I just wish he would shut up.

NGL, loved pretty much every pick of the draft outside of the long snapper, and I thought at the time the TMJ pick may have been the best value pick of our class and possibly of the entire draft, but since the season started TMJ hasn't got much action his way... and even when TMJ had been in there, he hadnt really flashed much, although Darnold has missed him on some big plays. But when Shi has played, both in preseason and on Sunday, there is something about him, even just the way he moves. It's like a surging electricity bubbling beneath the surface, waiting to erupt. I even said in the game thread on his reverse that I thought it was DJ Moore. There's something special about him, and I can definitely see elements of Samuel in him. Smitty loves him too, and I can see a bit of that edge/playmaking in him, too. Looking forward to seeing more of him.

Yeah, I was going to include that in my post. I agree, I think, and it appears, that off-court drama definitely was in his head last season. I hope he's better mentally and has all that behind him. He stepped up big time tonight and I'm proud of him.
