What the fug is this amateur time management

yeah that was bad, but i mean at some point you've got to have the personnel to throw the ball and clinch a game even if it's a risky call to take it off the ground.

we are finding out we absolutely do not possess the personnel to make that happen.

Exactly.  We have a head coach and OC that want to be aggressive and take shots.  And we have a QB who's signature play is the check down.

They're not perfect, but I like what I see overall from the coaching staff.

I don't give them a pass on that. They got the QB they wanted.

That's fair.

I'm still excited about the potential of Rhule and this staff.  They're essentially rookies at the NFL level.  It will be interesting to see how they learn from their mistakes.

Yeah, I think they may have overestimated what they could accomplish with such a physically limited QB.

I agree. Yet I still see Phil Snow put us in a 3 down linemen defense. Folks do not realize that once you commit to that defense with the clock running down you can not substitute because of the hurry up. The Vikings nutted in their pants when we went that route, and they kept us in that defense until they were at the 10 yard line. Embarrassing, unbelievably embarrassing. Yet it happens every week. I do not think Phil Snow is NFL material.

This is the kind of poo that could cost us big in a game that really matters. Yeah this is a throwaway season so you can say it doesn’t matter. What if he keeps pulling this poo with the playoffs on the line? Or in a playoff game? Total joke. The Vikings should have gotten the ball back down 6 with less than a minute to go and no timeouts. Actually if we had run the ball three times before the fumble the fumble itself might have ended the game.  What the hell is this idiot doing?

It's not bad time management if Teddy makes a decent throw to a wide open DJ Moore. Just sayin'. The error they made was trusting a QB that they shouldn't.

Said this on some other threads here but my opinion .... I thought the throw was catchable but DJ got hurt before he launched and didn't get the extension. Watch his right foot/leg on that play.

But agree with you globally, Teddy isn't going to win clutch games and has his limits for sure.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
