Everyone shitting on Jimmy G but no one is giving Kyle Shanahan crap for blowing it in the clutch once again with terrible offensive play calls.

It is a well known fact that if you can get to the fourth quarter against Shanahan and you're within 15 points, you have a chance.

The only problem is, how the hell do you get Sam to not make those mistakes? He's been the same QB since USC. He is talented enough to always get chances, but just makes the worst damn decisions.

If I could time travel to 2035 and found out that he ended up getting into a perfect spot and being successful, I wouldn't be shocked. I just have no damn idea how anyone gets him into that perfect spot.

The Rams were keying on the run. They knew Jimmy G wasn't gonna beat them.

This is why you throw out the game manager "We don't need you to be a leader" QB talk. In the playoffs you need a guy to sling it. I'd rather suck til we get a guy in the draft than recycle the Darnolds and Jimmy G's of the world. Stafford got it done in the last couple weeks despite Mcvay getting nervous and going conservative on some calls

He had just beat them a few weeks earlier. Shanahan got cute with the play calling in the second half and it cost them the game.

I'd say numerous errors by the Rams were the only reason they were in the game to start with. That's the thing. An elite QB gives you a margin for error. Everything has to go perfect to win playoff games with Jimmy G.

(IM NOT A RHULE FAN DISCLAIMER)

You don't have Sam as the QB...which I think is what Tepper see's that if you don't have the QB you don't have those issues IE draft or acquire a better QB.

    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
