Things are not well on Mint Street.

The answer is cutting 60 and 75 and starting from scratch with better free agent lineman (look them up yourself, there's a lot of good ones: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/offensive-line// )

Also, Sam Howell 

Start mentally preparing yourself now. 

Don't use the 1st round pick on a QB 

If we trade back... still don't use the 1st on a QB.. OL me... OL me hard all draft

I could be okay with a 2nd or 3rd rounder used on a QB (if we traded back)

they do belong in the NFL.  They are a cast of backup offensive lineman.   

if all you had to do was hire a coach to make backups look like starters, people would spend all their time investing in OL coaches and not in the actual  OL. 

Right...But they have to play like they're in the NFL. Granted, Sam has made them look worse running around holding onto the ball way too long.

Tepper's only fault is that he DIDN'T MEDDLE.  He's letting Rhule build the program but should have said "no go" on the Darnold trade.

Fans are so wish wash its ridiculous, all you heard the beginning of the year was how he was gonna be a terrible owner because he will stick his nose in football decisions to much. He has done the opposite and now the football guys have put this team in a whole with bad decisions but its on Tepper for not seeing the failure ahead of time...the guy that's not the football guy.

Lol Darnold is not our qb next year. He will either be backup or gone. No way in hell he is starting.

I’ll take the other side of that bet.  Not because Sam’s last four games have been starter quality, they weren’t, but because no reasonable person can apportion responsibility solely on Sam, when this clusterf*ck has been a true team effort; players, coaches, front office. Truly.  

The front office and coaching staff will give him next training camp with an (hopefully) improved O-line and a different OC to prove this season was not indicative of his true ability.  When the team has invested second and fourth round draft picks, you won’t write off the asset without kicking the tires further.

Agreed. Fans are just pissed and are looking for heads to fall. The worst takes are the “wE ShOuld fOrcE Tepper to SELL!!!”

My expectations for this season was .500 max honestly. The offensive play calling / execution has been the worst since the Lame duck Fox year. But it has NOT been worse. Not sure any team in history were as bad as that team offensively.

Yeah, I've thought that on the down low.

Um…

It’s because of Tepper that they had to go out and find a new QB this offseason. Options 1-3 didn’t materialize. 

I realize facts aren’t well received on this board but good lord.

We thought we were importing the New Orleans offense with Joe Brady. An offensive system that has always given us fits. What even New Orleans is learning this year is that system doesn't look so unstoppable without their hall of fame level quarterback.

Yup, like you said, the N.O. offense really ain't poo without an elite QB running it, and Sean Payton scheming/calling the plays.  Its just another set of X's and O's at that point.  And right now I'm not convinced that Joe Brady could scheme up a successful game plan against Independence High School's defense.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
