Smitty puts the blame yesterday all on the OL

You know Sam had an all time bad day when the best retort from some involves Cam Newton. Any other time the mention of his name here is met with hostility. It goes back to an old problem with this fanbase that is some people are perfectly fine losing depending on who is involved.

Hot damn who is this guy

Trust me, I know. What's the point if you can't win it all? This offense isn't there and it won't be until we replace Sam and the offensive line. Picking up his option was the dumbest thing we did in the off season. 

This staff and the moves they have made at  qb would probably have 25 other head coaches on the hot seat

What QB is giving this roster a chip with this OL?

If you take a glance above your post, you'll notice we talked about improving the offensive line. The point is getting a good QB to go along with that line. 

As poo as the offensive line is, they didn't make Sam throw those interceptions yesterday. Those were all bad decisions made by Sam himself.

I guess Smitty has not heard of the imaginary QB that is coming out in this years draft that is ready to take us to multiple Superb Owls regardless of the OL in front of him. 

Do you think the Oline threw those picks or that people can't think there's a distinct possibility that both the line and QB need improvement? You seem to be struggling with this

The option is fine. If Fitts is as good as we all hope, trade him for value.

I notice that, but I dont see how we build the OL if we draft a QB with our 1st round pick. We tried the late round picks and FAs route this year and the OL still sucks.

Sam is not without any blame in this, he does need to improve or he will be replaced. Sam has not been perfect by a long shot. We also need better play calls when CMC is out and DJ Moore is being locked down. 

Sam missed TMJ this week and last wide open, He missed Robby on the deep shot yesterday but he would have hit that with more time from the OL. He has also thrown some bad INTs.

I think we should we go OL with the first pick too. I wouldn't be upset. However, Sam isn't the answer.

I don’t think ppl realize how bad those ints were, the first one to dj Moore he threw Idc if he was prime Peyton Manning, that was getting int no matter what 

They are bad, bad. It's almost as if he literally isn't seeing the defense. I think the game is too fast to him. He can't process it that fast or something. Because he said it best, it's like he's seeing ghosts out there.

    • XL could easily be the last dog at the bowl for WR production next year.  That could leave him around 200-300 yards which would be disastrous.
    • Well sure, that's where the disconnect is then. If Thielen only gets 300-400 yards and T-Mac is healthy for the full season, then I'm with you guys, in that scenario there is absolutely zero excuse for him to not put up over 1,000 yards.   In fact, I'll let you double that, if Thielen has only 600 yards, then again, my expectations are for T-Mac to surpass the 1k mark with ease. But his game has never been about his physical abilities, so even if he loses a half a step, he's still the same player who is a savvy route runner who will get open and Bryce will continue to find him due to their chemistry.  Particularly since Bryce isn't a QB who forces things, he takes what the defense gives him.  So when teams focus on T-Mac and Thielen is more free to find those holes in the defense than he has the last two years, I don't think Bryce is going to ignore him. If someone wants to argue for T-Mac getting to 1,000 yards, personally, I'd say those yards would be far more likelier to come from XL and Coker than Thielen.  And that has nothing to do with XL or Coker, but that I'm still a firm believer in Thielen being able to still get 50-60 yards a game, again, particularly as he'll have less defensive attention on him than in either of his 2 seasons with us so far. Just because T-Mac is our #1 of the future who will have the ball forced to him at times, doesn't mean he needs to be forced into that role from day 1 when we have 3 very legitimate WR options next to him. Let the rookie grow into the role and the NFL game, we have that ability to do so because of Thielen, XL, and Coker.
    • Spot on. He's only 20 and his height 6'2 and weight 230lbs might make him more of an off-ball LB possibility. He's a multi-year project
