I did not read the entire thread, so excuse me  if I repeat a thought, but I  am sure that you  all  will torch me for the last part of my epiphany.

They were going to lose him  at the end of the season--not worth the second contract.  KB would demand a $55m contract.  Not getting that here.

Now the part that will get me some turds:

1. He reported to camp a bit overweight.  Some of you  pointed out that he  got  in shape by the beginning of the season.  The offseason is to get better--not to get fat.  KB should have been tweaking his game, not dieting and running sprints

2.  Cam is better without  KB.  Yes--I said it.  in 2015, Cam spread the ball around nicely.  I forget our record that year (sarcasm), but  the team underperformed the year before and the year after.  Hmmm.  

3. Our  offense is a dud.  KB is not getting open.  He is  running  bad routes  and is not hard to cover with 1 player.

Watch--our offense  will open up with him  gone.  Trust me--addition by subtraction.  NOT because  KB sucks,  but because  he  does not make  others  better.  Our  offense is slow and lumbering.  KB had 8 games left and would be gone anyway.  Funchess has been better, so...

A third rounder is not a bad trade---we got Olsen for a third rounder. 

Folks--our  offensive woes were not all OL--that is what you see on TV...Our  big  WRs are not getting open.  I am not distraught about this--sorry.

Take some ownership of this TD. Yours and Greg’s little bitch fit about Gman led to the hiring of Hurney the fool. You guys reap what you sow. 

Seriously. TD played a role in bringing Hurney back. Hope you boys enjoy getting paid to play on a losing team.

Addition by Substraction.

And people were clamouring for Ty Hilton for a 2nd or a 3rd, and hes a much better player, how can you be mad about getting Kb for 3rd and 7th. Not to mention we dont have to pay him now.

You don't trade someone you NEED now in THIS season especially when you'll get a 3rd ANYWAY for not signing said player after the season.    It's mind boggling and stupid.

These players are about a sharp as a bowling ball. Whether you agree with the kneeling or not, they are only hurting themselves. And like this, they wanted Gman gone so they could get their little friend Hurney back that would destroy any chance they had of being a winner. They can't see the forest for the trees.

This roster is Gettleman's. Hurney hasn't had time to do sh*t here.

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

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
