Run game is going to be a non factor unless Brooks comes in and is the second coming of Walter Payton.....

Hubbard is a JAG and we dont have any kind of passing game to back guys off

I thought Miles Sanders was running hard today. 

But If the passing game continues to be as bad as it was today, we could have Earl Campbell back there and it wouldn't help.

Look at every position. There's plenty of suck to go around so unearth the ugly truth.

Personally, I thought the Oline played well.  Except for the Taylor sacks on blitzes from the outside, Bryce mostly had time.   And those sacks were on the backs, or scheme, or Bryce himself. In fact, the most depressing thing about the passing attack today was that Bryce had time, and still played terribly. 

Didn't get to see enough of the run game to judge.  

First half was the worst half of football we have ever played as a team. Qb and defense were horrible.   With the Delhomme losses, we could point to one aspect of the team and say that was it. 

Today, the defense was horrible, special teams was horrible, and the only bright spot was that the oline gave the qb time, unfortunately, he couldn't take advantage of it.

i could see sanders and dad doing it--small market, bad team...

If Sanders doesn't improve over yesterday, he may not have much of a choice.  

Worst ever?   Brian Saint Pierre.  

Worst qb who started more than a handful of games, it would be close between Clausen and Young.

As far as price we paid to get him, its Young by a mile.  

Cameron Ward has looked good, and doesn't have super elite talent around him.  I wouldn't mind taking him in a later round.  Plus we do well with Qbs named Cam.

Pickles had a much better arm, it really isn’t close

He was a more accurate thrower, no doubt about it.  But Clausen had a glacially slow release.

Bright spots?Leota did not suck.

Mike jackson played hard.

XL caught 3 balls and was probably the leading WR.

 

Thielen was the leading receiver.  Mingo despite the fumbles, was second.  XL was third.  

But it is impossible to judge the receivers when the quarterback is overthrowing them by ten feet.  Johnson was running thru the secondary wide open and Bryce Overthrew him on what would have been at least a 20 yard gain, and maybe more.

Lol I love ripping on Tepper as much as anyone for his terrible decisions coming back to bite him, but dude Caleb looks like he played like ass too. Fumble recovery return TD and pick 6 won the game not Caleb.

Yeah, Caleb played pretty bad today.  Might get better, but certainly an inauspicious start.

2025 is a below average QB class,   

Meh, we don't really know that yet.  Wasn't it 2021 when many were saying it was a great qb class, but it turned out to be really bad.

He does?

Given that Bryce overthrows him by 10 feet, its really hard to judge.  

Ironically Miles Sanders has been the offensive bright spot today.  Him and Theilen.

Better than I thought.

Canalas may turn out to be a shitty HC but he was given a kids menu with 3 waxy crayons and told to make a Picasso out of it. 
 

watching AR and CJ put on a show while we took Bryce…

I expected us to lose, although not this bad.  But the goal with this season is the same it was yesterday.  See if we have a qb in Bryce (and it seems we have an answer to that question).  And if not, get another qb next year.  

We shouldn't judge Canales unless we look this bad every game.  

At this point, they need to tell Bryce to never throw when he is running forward.   Its an automatic overthrow.  Just tuck it and run.

Saints are going for 50

Only way we hold them to 50 is they just take a knee on every offensive possession they get.

Allowing points on a drive is never a stop.

A FG every drive is still giving up 30+ points a game

My comment was sarcastic, but I realize that doesn't always translate on a message board.

Will we get a defensive stop in this game?

A field goal is a defensive stop.  For us.  

This looks like Alabama vs Southwest Mississippi hair care college.  

If this type of performance continues, I think he will be benched by the 3rd or 4th game.  

That is a td.  

First and goal inside the five, and not a single run called.

lol the refs ain’t gone give us that one 

They felt sorry for us.

It's height first. He can't see enough. It's obvious with the open WRs he can't see. His confidence is shot now that he knows it. He was accurate when the talent level was a lot less on the other side. Now he is broken or breaking. 

On his worst throws, he was in a clean pocket with no one in front of him.  He just overthrows the receiver.  That is lack of accuracy, nothing else.  You can say he was broken if you want to.  But he has never shown anything in the NFL to show that he could ever have made it.

I hope it changes, but its just a truth that some look good in college when on dominant teams, but in the NFL, when the talent level is much closer, they just can't cut it.  

We are down 37-3 and the Saints are sitting on the Run.  That is the biggest indicator of how bad the Passing game actually is.
