I think you are making a bit much out of this decision - Fox has always been very stubborn about replacing players, and seems to rely primarily on practice instead of game time. I think that is why Moore is so far behind. I think, though, that Fox recognizes there is tremendous pressure to try Moore, particularly if Jake falters in Arizona. We will see - if Jake's career is put down in Arizona, then I think Fox will give in to Moore. If Jake has even a decent day, no matter the outcome, we'll hear about how other people need to improve for another week until Jake gives the game to another crappy team.

Fox has put himself in lose-lose situation. Start Moore vs Arizona to appease the fans(and anyone with common sense) and he either 1. plays great, finishes the season playing great, Fox gets fired for sticking with Jake with his contract or 2. Moore plays horribly, Fox gets to say I told you so, and he's fired anyway. The ONLY way for Fox to keep his job is if Jake plays great, not just good, for the rest of the year.

Watch Moore go to another team and become a pro bowler.

I would be okay with that, just so all of the anti-Moore crowd here could eat crow.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not expecting him to be All Pro or anything. I just think it's unfair to outright declare there is no way Moore is capable of starting in this league, especially when he's won two out of the three games he's started.

And this league is about what have you done for my lately. Why are all of you hung up on ancient history.

Oh, because that is the only possible justification..............

Nevermind.....

This FO failed to get a backup QB. They also failed to get Smith help at WR.

You do have two kickers, two FB's however. When a FO starts giving away #1 picks you should smell trouble. The strategy of doing it last year and going big and planning to run was ok and resulted in success. The problem surfaced when you have to play from behind. So going into this year with zero movement on the WR front is a huge fail. Perhaps the biggest fail of all to me. It is the end of the Fox and Delhomme era. Period.

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
