remind me when we can finally move on from D-Will and J-Stew?

since the topic is brought up at least once a week, for the last 3 years, we are looking at 150 or so threads on this same topic and people still ask questions about it?

Remember when our running game was the bright spot of this franchise? Lmao

[Mojo]

Come on, we do know. Minnesota at least has two very solid OL (Pro Bowl caliber). I mean, give Stewie and Tolbert some damn credit. They've got to break tackles in the backfield to even regain positive yardage. It's not fair to them to take the heat. It all starts up front. In addition, it doesn't help the situation when opposing defenses stack the box.

 

It's not that I'm taking anything away from them.  Deangelo will be 32 next year and Stew god bless him just can't catch a break.  Neither one of them are available as of now so it's pretty fair to say that they're done as a dual running attack, and no, I'm not saying that's all on them.  I'm just accepting their best days as a tandem have passed.  It'll be good to get some fresh meat in there anyway. 

 

Also..very doubtful they will both remain on the roster for much longer.

And theeeeen we decided it was cool to pay 13 mil to a single player not named Cam or Luke. And we ended up screwed anyways. Proof that paying for overpriced players doesnt always guarantee production. The NFL really is a crapshoot business. I kinda feel bad for Gettleman in this whole situation. Makes him look like an idiot even though theres no way he could have known this would happen.

Although on the other hand he had zero business paying money like that for a player who could jave been easily replaced in FA for half the price. Nobody on this team beaides Cam and Luke should even get close to that level of pay grade. Period. A cheaper replacement with minimal drop off can always be had on the market.

Please Gett Dawg, never overpay for a player again.

I don't know about that, Star is going to command big bucks when the time comes, and rightfully so.

[Awesomeness!!]

Its really sad because Stew and D Will are good guys. Unfortunately they are older than dirt, overpaid and in Stews case softer than a baby's ass. We mind as well cut our loses and release them in the offseason. Its not like they're producing a ton anyway.

I wanted him gone the second he signed Jake to that retarded contract after he threw 5 picks in the playoffs.

I can't even believe he stayed after Fox left.

Because this organization always favors continuity over change, and at a time when more change was needed than ever before, JR elects to wait until someone proves themselves completely inept before letting them go, hence the 4 seasons of dread we all had to sit through from 2009-2012.

Even before 2013 when Chud left and we had to scramble to find an offensive coordinator, and Hue Jackson was there, who did we decide to go with? We promoted Mike Shula, and look what Hue is doing in Cincinnati right now. Andy Dalton is catching touchdown passes in his offense.

I am worried more about Shula's creativity more than anything. He hasn't really done anything to take advantage of what good things our team can do, like *FreeFua* said in another thread earlier.

Look at what Fox is doing when he is not in total control and forced to change.

You have a point. But I hate it when they overpay for players who could be replaced for less.
