Positives for this season?

We found a kicker?

Was fun having a glimmer of hope at times this season. Oh well, clean house. 

Recipe for disaster when our WRs run lazy routes or give up, our play calls are vanilla, and Cam is going to have to force throws.  

Offense better get creative and find some easy open yardage fast or this poo is over. 

Forced that, yikes again. 

Baaaad pass. Damn damn damn. 

Ball floated on Cam a bit but my God how nice to see that again. 

Welp. 

Was there even a recovery on that to challenge? Whistles were blowing it dead.

poo call already, yay

If the team doesn't win today...

1. Cancel the season

2. Cancel the coaches

The defense especially better BALL OUT today. The offense likely sputters some but should still put up 20. After the defense got embarrassed and abused last week, they better come for blood today against a mistake-prone Tua and meh offense. The Dolphins offense *shouldn't* score 20+ on us.

The TD pass to CMC was some of the best touch I've ever seen Cam put on a ball. I honestly don't know if old Cam makes that play except in 2015 when he was feeling it.  Really don't understand why he never tried to go "deep" at all outside of that one pass unless the play calls we gave him didn't allow it. 

Is it possible to cry while also having an erection? I'll find out this Sunday. 

Football is fun again...even for the coaches. 

That's my QB.gif

What a surreal day.  From thinking I'd never see Cam play again, to him playing HERE, to him leading the damn team as the "backup" QB.  From the time Cam first came in to when he scored and yelled "I'm BACCCCCKKKKK"...whew.  What a fuging moment.  PJ played well today and deserves credit, but you can't tell me we win this game without Cam coming back and bringing this energy.  For players & fans alike.  Nobody knows how this season ends from here on out, but we're about to have fun for the first time in years boys and girls. 

That's the happiest I've been watching a football game in a LONG time.  Seeing Cam come in, score, and yell "I'm back" is up there with the best sports moments of my life. Whatta fuging game. 

With all 3 divisional rivals losing and other wildcard contenders in the NFC projected to lose...could be a HUGE bump if we can eek out a win today. 

I think Cam adds 1-2 wins as long as he's steady.  As romanticized as we all want to make this reunion, he's not coming back as a top QB. We'll continue to compete for the 7th playoff spot with the rest of the middling NFC teams being average to awful. 

Expectations for the future are now just hoping that Cam comes in, is steady, is our vet option heading into next year while a rookie learns behind him. Cam returns home for some fun, to close some doors the right way, and go out on his own terms before handing the reins over in a year or two. 

Could've originally kept Cam, drafted a QB to sit behind him until he proved he was done, saved 30 million or so in the process, and kept a few extra draft picks.  Top notch decision making the last couple of years!

The rational side of me knows this isn't going to work from a football perspective. But today, I don't give a damn. 

This franchise owed Cam better. If nothing else, hopefully we just got rid of some bad juju and gained some karma back. I'm happy for the first time in years with this team. It's a fine football move that probably doesn't mean much at the end of the day, but it's also about time we make a "good" decision and treat the most important player in our team's history with some respect. After watching years of bad decisions and boring & hapless football...the fans get a win. 

Just now, App Panther said:

It's not 2015. It's a PR move to invoke images from that year in our pea size brains.

Agreed, and I'm 1,000% fine with it right now. I've had to watch garbage QBs for years now that fans had 0 attachment to.  At least give me happy thoughts and memories to make me tune in.

We're planning on losing anyway...so to me, what's the downside? Losing with Cam is more fun than losing with PJ.  And if he were to win? Whew. 

Meeting with Cam only to NOT sign him and roll with PJ and Matt Barkley? Literally cannot happen or Tepper just needs to GTFO

He's trying to save his fanbase right now. If he fugs this up, ooo wee mayne. 

Somebody go ahead and work on a conspiracy article about Tepper repairing relations with Cam to get to Deshaun. 

The only pro to PJ starting IMO is he's a more fun/dynamic QB *potentially* 

He's still pretty awful, though. 

Please don't break CMC this time. 10-15 carries a game for CMC, 10-15 for Chuba & Abdullah. 

Moore, Marshall, Robby's corpse, and CMC out wide at least 10 times game please.
