Being Positively Blah

I'm going to pose a simple question: Pending a win tonight...can we make it through this entire season with Fox, Hurney, & Delhomme and still feel good about our team at the end?

I really think so.

I'm not currently a supporter of any of the three fellows I mentioned, but I am looking at our current situtation as this:

If our running game picks up soon, we are fully capable of going to the playoffs. Simple. And this is regardless of how Jake performs and as long as our defense can be mediocre. Look at the second half of last year. We had basically the same team and a similar situation. Jake had horrible horrible games against the likes of the Raiders and Buccaneers and our defense gave up a ridiculous amount of points yet we still managed to finish 12-4. I believe if Delhomme can drag on as last years self to the end of this year, we can still finish well...and we can still get rid of him (Along with Fox & Co.). He may have around 20 interceptions, 15-20 TDs and we may not in fact fall off the face of the earth. Our team will still have two awesome running backs, great linebackers, solid starting o-linemen, and good TEs at the end of this season. We have some to dispose of but we don't have to blow up our team to bits and start from square one even if we do get a new coach and QB. Teams like the Jets, Bears, and 49ers are showing me that we have the potential to get it going quicker than it seems.

I'm just trying to get a positive mindset thats not a homer and at the same time not a negative prick. When thinking this way: My expectations are still very low, but I still see playoff possibility. Basically, just stop freaking out people. :seeya:

So, let's start by beating the living crap out of the Cowgirls in an bit. Cheers.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
