maybe little faith in the team?

maybe little faith in the coach?

maybe he just didn't want to be here anymore?

maybe he wanted some attention?

maybe he just wanted a change of scenery?

doesn't matter. he's here and getting $1mil/game and we got to deal with it.

Yea, but they didn't predate Jakes choke in Seattle in the NFC champ game. Other than that 3 game start he had last year before getting hurt, he really hasn't been worth a crap since that game. I knew we were screwed in that game when they showed Delhomme on Fox before the game and he looked like a deer in headlights.

jake choked in that game?

i'm not a jake supporter...and not really a hater, but even i know that that game wasn't jake's fault...and it started with having a 4th string RB as your main ball carrier, then no receiving threat whatsoever outside of steve smith.

it's easy to lose a game when your only option is to throw the ball and hope someone on your team catches it.

Jake's "choke" in the championship game in Seattle came after dominating performances on the road in New York and Chicago, and when our starting running back, who was our third string back, got knocked out early in the game. Only a hardcore hater would pin any blame on Jake for that game, much less judge the season by it.

Peppers issues don't have anything to do with Jake, that's just a stupid idea. You people need to go outside stop thinking about football for a while.

      We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
