Name something specific that would get you pumped for this season

Dude, that would make me feel the exact OPPOSITE. 

We would have to give up way too much to get him and we are not one franchise QB away from being a winning team. Not only would we give up future draft assets to acquire him, we would then have to allocate 50+ million to him, money that we don't have, and even if we did, it would involve cutting any decent players to support him.

This would be another short sighted move that screws the team in the long term. I would probably give up at that point.

Yep that's pretty much how we all feel. 

But you didn't actually answer the thread's main question.

What are YOU actually pumped for in this coming season?

Brian Burns

CMac

DJ Moore

Chinn

Horn

Etc...

This team is not nearly as bad as most of you guys want  to think it is.

If Rhule becomes a delegator and on field team builder. He allows his coaches and players to dictate the play and culture while he simply guides it. Hitting on 6 leaders in the draft and free agency that all align with a championship culture.

That would excite me and give me some hope. Doubt it happens. He has his hands in too much, has an ego that competes with his players, and keeps pushing a culture of self-deprication.

The team is already screwed long term because the rebuild was suppose to happen 3 years ago, so who really cares.

Burns is a very good young pass rusher but we are waiting to see if he will get to the next level ie consistently dominant.

CMC can't stay on the field. Nothing else in this conversation matters until that happens.

DJ Moore is a stud but also like any player has some things he can fine tune.

Chinn is a stud who this staff for some reason saw fit to switch positions.

Horn is promising but three games is not enough of a story to tell yet.

All in all you would see more positivity if the braintrust of this franchise had begun investing in this offensive line from jump street. But instead we just picked up where Rivera and previous staffs left off when we overinvested in defense while the oline declined even more which was an issue for years with the best quarterback this franchise has seen. THAT is the biggest contributor right now to the fan fatigue you are seeing. Bumbling our way from one bad QB to another is the cherry on top. Invest in the offense go big or go home. Until then fans don't want to hear it. Plain and simple.

Lmao it’s really bad u just can’t admit it. Burns misses a lot of sacks and runs by the play a bunch shouldn’t have been a pro bowler imo, CMAC who’s that, someone that’s played 6 games in like 2 years, DJ isn’t a number 1 wr, Chinn is being used wrong by this staff, Horn we don’t know what we have and should’ve been a different pick at the time, etc well there’s not really an etc. just keep being in denial but it’s true this team isn’t that good.

Call me an optimist, but if we make meaningful additions to the OL, then that would get me to look forward to the season. Obviously, we're not gonna do a whole lot with Rhule and Darnold here but if we can end this season with Rhule gone, and get a QB next offseason then hopefully we'll be on the right track. But I understand everyone's pessimism at the current moment.

    • I dont think people realize how hard it is to find a consistent starting QB in the NFL. Byrce will not heart us to a SB but I do think he can manage to get us one or close..go all in on defense and change the Offensive passing game and play calls. I really think our biggest problem is our HC.  Take New Orleans QB for example, switch him and Bryce and I promise you it'll look similar or worse. New Orleans OC is levels ahead of Canales. And as far as the draft goes, in this division with as much rb talent as we face ..the answer...this guy:    Pick up a couple edge rushers in FA along with a corner and plug this guy in Rozeboom's spot. Defense solved. But only if we get a top tier rusher on that dline....jus saying    
    • I think I'm going to the game in Los Angeles vs Paraguay, and the England / Croatia game here in Dallas since my mom is British.  For decent seats anywhere in the building(s) it looks like it will be upwards of $7k for the two games.  Insane. Just for perspective, you could buy field level EPL tickets for any one of the top sides in the league, and it would be 10% of the price you'll pay for crappy seats at the World Cup.
    • Meh… I knew this thread would turn into a Bryce/Tua comparison, when they couldn’t be further apart situations.   Dolphins catered there whole offense toward Tua, they brought in a coach that would run a Tua friendly offense, the went in got the best most explosive WR in the NFL and paired him the fastest WR in that years draft. Panthers have done the opposite, they went and got a Pete Carroll disciple who likes to run the ball under center, they drafted big slow WR who got little separation in college. Literally the polar opposite of Bryce’s scouting report coming out of Alabama.   Tua was a decent QB 2 years ago, but the concussions, lack of movement have caught up to him. He never had a great arm to begin with but now since he doesn’t want to get hit he’s taking the whole offense down with him.
