You are making an assumption as if it were fact. As if you could actually know.

he took the ball out of Kyle's hands and put it in our playmakers, he believes in curtis samuel. I like him tbh, would not be mad at all if we could somehow hire Stefanski and keep Scott as our OC with norv as an advisor. 

 

I mean he's working with pure poo at QB there's only so much he can do

What was everyone else's opinion on Scott Turner's playcalling? I thought he did a pretty good job with it and utilized Samuel the way I want him to with more runs, seeing as how he is not a very good wide receiver. There is only so much you can do with the league's worst oline (as far as I'm concerned). 

I like Scott's play calling alot better then norvs especially in the redzone, just need the qb to execute and Samuels problems are noodle arm. They dont even hardly try to throw deep anymore lol....he cought all his catchable balls I saw.

He's perplexing. He has these terrible unwise moments (and there are tipped balls that cause issue, too) but the guy can also march the team 86 yards down the field for a touchdown in less than two minutes. (And he's done that last minute march multiple times this year.)

I'd really like to see him play with good protection, but that's not going to happen again this season.

 

Kyle's serviceable if his primary read is open but otherwise anything goes. 

[Mr. Scot]

Pretty positive, actually...

I can't argue that, but we also have to temper our opinions a bit based on experience. Can he get better? I think so, but he's playing the most difficult position in possibly the most complex and violent sport in the world. 

We have to remember that he's basically a rookie, with limited college experience, playing for a beat up team who fired their coach. The defense isn't giving him much help (with either turnovers, field position or just limiting the scoring of the other team), also.

This is a win now or else league, though. Just hate that the kid might get thrown under the bus and let go rather than retained and developed. A bit more seasoning on the bench behind a starting quality QB and a good QB coach and he could be a decent starter. New regimes and undrafted players don't mix well, though, so we may see him spun out and into the league. That move might come back to haunt us.

In a perfect world, Cam would come roaring back for next season, healed, recharged and rejuvenated with Kyle Allen retained as a capable back up. I just can't put any money on those things happening.

What in the world has Will Grier shown you that makes you think he is ready right now to come in and lead an NFL offense?  The coaches see him everyday in practice and they obviously feel he is nowhere near ready.

Looked like they did a lot of what the LA Rams did against them and they struggled stopping. 

Lot of play diversity out of the same personnel grouping.  He prob would have gone hurry up if they could have gotten a few big gains on early downs.

Seattle was clearly playing soft zone on that one drive where DJ had two big pickups.  I would hope any pro QB could take advantage of that.

I thought he adjusted well after the first drive, unlike many OCs we've had here that wait until the end of the game to change up their approach - if ever. 

He's certainly a creative breath of fresh air and already knows how to use the weapons around him. I'd love to see him with Cam and this crew next season - and a more experienced offensive line.

I'd like to see him with another QB other than Clausen. Whoops I mean Allen.

Also having an OL that could block might make it ok but it seemed to be managed better.

The things is it's all relative. Being a quarterback is hard sure, but as a professional you have to compare to him to his peers. Most guys at this level don't get the benefit of being eased into it. And if Kyle needs that in order to get good, how good is he really?

What worries me is that I don't really see raw talent there. A lot of guys coming out of college aren't NFL ready immediately either but you get glimpse of what they can be with some polish. I'm rarely if ever impressed by Kyle's mechanics or reads. I thought his strength was his poise and composure but his frequent turnovers have killed that. Kyle looks like a textbook JAG and this team isn't good enough to win with one at QB.

I'm listening to the Fewell interview right now and that bit really jumped out. If this season has taught me anything, it's that a non-committal answer like that means, "This week's starter is definitely not the starter next week."
