Anybody surprised at how bad Jake is...

...then you shouldn't be. Forget the past, we all knew Jake was either an overglorified back-up or solid starter depending on the fan judging him.

This offseason, we decided to sign a 34-year old QB to a 5-year extension after coming off the worst game of his career. To save cap is why it is a good move :rolleyes: Then, we don't bring in anybody to challenge him. Fast forward to training camp, we get reports on how bad Jake is. Scrimmage game? Jake is playing bad and was booed. Preseason? Jake played bad overall.

So why the heck did people believe Jake could actually lead our team after playing so horrible? Not only that, why the heck is John Fox/Davidson passing SSSSSOOOOOOO much? I swear, I have said that for 4 different games this year. My friend and I laughed about this last nite...how the hell do you throw a smoke route inaccurately?!?

Jake gives us the "best chance" to win so here's to the rest of the season guys. :cheers2: We're playing spoilers now.

this has never been discussed at any length before, so it's a good thing you made a thread about it

The discussion couldn't have been good if people were still believing Jake was a good QB after the Eagles game opener. Writing was on the wall for a long time.

      Looking Way Ahead, But.

      I didn't say I thought throwing it was a bad decision, I said I thought not running those 3-5 yard routes to pick up the 1st down wasn't a great call.  Yes the play worked out, but I didn't love the play call, it's like when a bad shooter is taking a 3 and you're yelling "no no no" as they're going up and then they make it so it worked out. That's still gambling on them to make the play and I take no issue with that. But I just went and watched the play again, we had T-Mac and XL running downfield crossing routes, Coker went in motion behind the LOS and then moved up a yard or two after the snap but not even past the LOS, Sanders chipped the DE and then ran a drag route right long the LOS. The play worked out, but I don't really like that particular play call and route tree with the game on the line on a 4th and 2.  If you want to send one route downfield as an option that's fine, but there were only 2 realistic target options with that route tree and they were both 15-20 yards downfield.

      Chuba is a better back than Rico.

      If BY comes back, they 100% need to bring in legit competition.    Heres what as you are alluding too. This team can either sign Icky&Mays or BY, I do not see both without cuts/trades/etc. My vote is for Icky&Mays, draft a QB....

      JB shouldn’t even be a thought IMO.  Bonus if he ever matters for us.
