Shackling your quarterback


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

My biggest problem with Jake's play yesterday was that we were moving the ball down the field on the next to last series of downs throwing short and medium range passes. We had plenty of time. In fact, imo we needed to ensure we scored and used all the clock in order to ensure New Orleans did not get the ball back. So instead of doing what was working, we threw to deep passes and both were incomplete. Even if we had completed the Smith pass, we likely would have scored too quick and still lost when New Orleans took it back the other way.

And that's Jake's fault, of course. Everything that goes wrong is.

Agreed, At this point whats the difference between starting Moore or Shackling Delhomme.

I was thinking about something similar today, what's the difference between shackling Delhomme or starting Rodney Peete. We're basically back where we were at the position. As for Moore, it would be quite different I believe.

    • You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out. 
    • So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB. 
    • All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
