Eh, the entire offense has been a train wreck ever since CMC went down.  Sad to say, but at this point trade him because we can't go on like this every year living and dying by CMC's ability to be on the field.  We need all the draft capital we can get to get this offense right.

First thing, Teppper will need to eat the rest of Rhule and Co.'s coaching contract.

Second, get rid of Fitterer.

Third, hire an outside consultant to help with hires for the ENTIRE staff including the scouting department.

Fourth, then we can think about new QB.

And finally, get rid of 90% of the frikkin' Temple players.

Meh, I'm not gonna rub anyone's face in it. We've all been wrong about stuff before. I would've been happy to have been wrong. It would've been in all of our best interests if he would've proven to have been legit. This just sucks and I don't take any real pleasure in it. I'd rather be wrong and cheering on a winning team.

I didn't think it would be this bad so early though. A loss to the 1-5, beat up, Gettelman-designed Giants is as bad as it gets. 

I expressed that we were arguably a bottom 10 team last week, but I suspected we were bottom 5. I still didn't think we'd lose to a Giants team without Barkley, Golladay, Shepard and Toney. 

We not only lost, but we got beat down!

And our QB room is the sum of all fears.

No, we jut need a real NFL QB.

Kudos to you for speaking up but you are the only one willing apparently. Just as recent as yesterday I was attacked for discussing Darnold's penchant for awful throws in a thread where fans were piling on Mac Jones whose team just dropped 54 points. But those posters are silent. Typical.

Mac Jones is looking like the best rookie QB right now

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
