Hell, speaking of Cousins...he might be available this off-season.  I have always thought he was a really good QB, who just has never gotten the credit he deserves.  I'd take him as our long term QB in a heartbeat.

I wouldn't be mad about it, but he's not a long-term solution. Already 33-34.

It's a way to get it to mediocre, which is better than we are. Obviously, I understand the mixed feelings about that rather than just sucking hard and continuing to get high draft picks.

I dont think a mediocre QB will help us at all. We need a top 10 kind of guy to make this offense work with the few pieces we have or we need 5 or so rookies to develop into quality starters. 

Taking a QB in the first is going to have our OL in shambles again next year.

If we had good deals waiting for us, they would be on the table. That's what I mean, unless we are getting great offers from other front offices and turning them down. If so, they are getting vetoed somewhere and there isn't much we can do.

I think Rhule is safe even at 3-14. I believe he will jettison Brady and then the Rhule hot seat will be cranked to 11 in 2022. I also expect to see the FO and Rhule forced to take a QB in the draft.

I think we are about to enter into a very bad place for Rhule and I don't think Tepper has learned any lessons yet on how to be a good owner. It's set up for  complete implosion.

Your logic is sound, I just think the storm is beginning from here.

If accurate, then Houston isn't budging.

This may drag into the 2022 season if so. Depends on how stubborn the Texans are and the result of the civil cases against Watson.

Eventually they are going to stop paying him and come after his money if they can't get a trade worked out.

Tepper is supposedly impulsive, so it may come down to whether someone can talk him off a ledge if he gets pissed and wants to can Rhule.

I will say that as much faith as I am losing in Rhule, I don't want us to get a reputation as being the team that has a crazy owner. That isn't going to allow us to hire good candidates in the future.

I mean a QB good enough to GET us to mediocre. That's slightly different.

It is why I said I wanted someone like Tyrod Taylor while we rebuild the OL. Just someone to be competent and take care of the ball. Then we can go get our QB in any draft we care to trade the farm to move up and get. IMO, this isn't that draft.

For me, I would rather get a 10 years starter on that OL.in the first than shoot for the moon on a high bust potential QB. Especially given my thoughts on this QB class.

I agree, I don't want Tepper to be crazy but at this point it's lining up to be a learning experience for him. It took Haslim more than a decade to offset his negative impacts.

I also see a very good chance that Rhule may run back to college anyways at the end of the year. The rest of this year is not going to be fun.

Rhule and staff are just not ready, they will probably succeed later from the experience in this failure.

He is a good QB who is an insane choke artist. Sort of a poor man's Drew Brees.

He would probably excel in our offense.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
