So it's obvious we arent that good of a team this year. It's also obvious we have too much talent too be a really bad team this year. We will likely finish somewhere in the 6-10 area..Which brings the spotlight on Fox. Will Fox be here next year, and what effect will that have on our QB situation? According to some articles Fox is a lame duck coach just waiting to get canned..

Now theres a QB who's available who could be the future of our organization. Maybe he will be a bust? Regardless theres a young QB with potential, ripe for the picking off of a horendous team...Now i dont care if it was Quinn or someone else, would Fox take a QB of the Future, if he wont be in our future? Basically is Fox's job security hurting our future. Given his mindset, and the mindset i would have if this may be my last year, who cares about the future, i wont be here..I feel like this hurts our team in the long run..

Thoughts?

you guys are screwed. you gave big money/years to jake and it appears he is broken again. you could drop him or demote him but its going to come at a big cost to your team. this is a great reason why you make your players play out the contract that they signed. big extension to jake and now you have a big problem b/c of it.

If we went with a Notre Dame product, at this point I might rather have Jimmy Claussen than Brady Quinn.

I was thinking about Clausen too so I looked up a mock draft. He was projected to go 20th. If that is anywhere near correct we will not have a shot. I REALLY hate that we gave up our 1st round pick.

We have a better chance of plucking a Chad Henne type guy off someone's roster. I know we can't get Henne now, but someone like him who is a backup. Maybe Kevin Kolb?? Or if Philly lets McNabb go after this year we could plug him in for a year or 2.

Maybe its his big muscles and myoplex.

That's probably what it is. Because I still can't understand what people love so much about this guy. I've heard people criticize us for passing him up for 3 years now, saying that he would have turned out better than the Beason/Kalil trade combo. This is the same guy who just lost his job to "2 complete passes Derek Anderson", right?

Well, hes very talented, and he is not a retard.

He scored a 29 on his wonderlic, which is pretty good. Depending on how relevant one believes the wonderlic score is.

I believe he could be had for a decent price.

Dan Marino scored a 6 and Ryan Leaf scored a 30. Nuff said.

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
