That's what got folks scared ...if Darnold can't produce with CMC, Moron, Paradis, Robby, Dj, and Arnold...or looks worse than PJ. What then, cause we know they going ride the Darnold train until the season wrecked.

Well that’s sort of the idea. I have been a Darnold advocate, but if he sucks then we don’t want to scrap any extra wins out of the season. If he sucks we want to suck and take a QB next year.

You're related to Walker, right?

The only real thing that this game pointed to was the lack of sufficient depth, but fans across the NFL are likely complaining about the same thing. I've said it before: Rhule doesn't seem to like to churn the QB room as much as at other positions. I'll add kicker to that. As such, I'm getting more concerned about his talent evaluation at some of the most important positions of the game. He hasn't lost me yet though.

The play calling was a little suspect, but perhaps they were just looking to evaluate certain things amid the vanilla.

It's a slight overreaction based on one Pre-season game, but it's trending towards Rhule bringing in back-to-back stellar Draft classes. He clearly can evaluate talent.

He's not 'churned the QB room' because there's nothing to churn. He took a look at Ramsey in the rookie Mini-Camps and quickly dismissed him. 

I feel like Colonel Jessop: "Who you gonna bring in? Smith? [retired] RG3? McCown? Bortles? Finley?"

Right now we NEED Walker (and Grier) because there isn't better out there.

You dont get it....I have been on this forum for many seasons and know what to expect from this place. The reason l picked this game to post this is because of how totally meaningless it was and showed nothin. No starters, no QB and no game plan. Perfect time for this post and got just the reaction expected. As i said....lighten up.

 

 

 

Triple down my man.

Of course there isn't any better in August, but there was better in March...Not to mention the draft.

    • It's been mentioned in this thread, yet many are glossing over it... This WR group has a ton of potential. TMAC, XL and Coker, and maybe even Horn as the speed guy will get a ton of snaps in this offense. The reality is that they are all really unproven. Hopefully they're ascending, but we don't know if XL and Coker are maxed out based on last season. TMAC and Horn are ROOKIES. So the only "proven vets" are Thielen, Moore and Renfrow. Not exactly top of the league. Biggest issue being a lack of speed to take the top off of defenses. Say what you want about Tedd Ginn but he was probably the most important receiver on the team in 2015.
    • That would basically make him a top 10 quarterback based on last year's stats if you break down each QB metric, complied and ranked them. I get the premise of the question--why should we get rid of Bryce after the season if the team still sucks, but it's not Bryce's fault?  Fair enough. If Bryce balls out and for whatever reason we still can't get over the hump, he shouldn't catch all the grief for it.  However, I will caveat that while stats can add layers of paint to a canvass, they do not always paint the whole picture.  So while those hypothetical stats are pretty darn good, if we are inept in the red zone settling for FGs or he's coughing up the ball on sacks or completing layup passes that doesn't get us first downs, then statistically he can have a really good season, but it could leave us on the short end of the scoreboard some games.
    • Not many are talking about this player. He played well as a rookie last year. If he refines his blocking, continues studying film, and keeps working hard, I can see him being the next Greg Olsen. I’m expecting 55 catches, 700 yards, 4 TDs this season.
