Worst Fear - Winning Out


RumHam

Recommended Posts

if we consider what it would take to win out...

namely, beating Seattle and NO,  both of whom will be playing for seeding...

hell I'll take winning out.  It will mean that our offense likely took a step forward, our defense took a fuging huge step forward, and our team likely has a boatload of young players contributing more than they have so far.

so I'll take it, because we would have something real solid to build on for next year.

While id be ecstatic to win out and get in, it will hold back the future of the franchise. Players will lobby for Fewell to stay and scott to run the offense. This also solidifies hurney gets an extension. It would show just how incompetent ron was. Im starting not to trust tepper purely because he thinks hurney is some genius. Our best bet is to lose out but we clearly have the talent to win out and not be held back by an ancient philosophy

You have looked at the teams left on our schedule right?

Winning out?.........with the temp move in coaching staff now?

They will be ill prepared to take on this whole deal through the rest of the year..........they only way the win is if the Saints have no reason to play the last week and rest their starters......

Other than that its 0-4 staring the Panthers in the face.........

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
