In hindsight sure but I know for a fact that Ron was in his 3rd year, his seat was very hot and people were saying the same exact thing during that 0-2 start as they are saying now. In fact, even after we beat the Giants that year to improve to 1-3, we then got blown out the following week by the Cardinals and we were sitting at 1-3 before going on a 11-1 run. 
 

Now I will say that yes, us going on a similar run is VERY unlikely and Rhule isn’t half the coach Rivera is, but precedent is precedent. 

I don’t think precedent is the word you are looking for here

He is right. Baker was too quick with his footwork and led to missed timing with the receivers. From A22, it appeared that baker was moving faster than his WR. At first I thought it was bad play design, but if baker slows the cadence of his footwork by a whole  step, he will hit his receivers in stride.

If I could choose between 5 wins or 2 wins I'll take 2 for draft position. I think the Saints and Falcons are both trash, so we'll be in ugly close games against them just like our last two games. In that case, I think we'll split with them both for two wins, with the first of those wins being this Sunday.

Now the other factor in more possible wins are fluke games, and teams that have a QB injury before we play them. We're good enough to have a few games where we catch fire and the other team lays an egg and we beat better teams. I think have a minimum of two fluke wins, one maybe against the Steelers, or some team that is unfamiliar with us.

That puts us at 4 wins minimum imo. If we have no fluke wins, and no opposing teams riddled with key injuries, and we keep playing poorly, we could have only 2 wins. If you want to go to a home game where we win, then I'd say go this Sunday imo. 50/50 we win imo.

So in case any of you want SOMETHING to cling to.. Fun little fact.. In 2013 when we started 0-2 and ended up 12-4, our first two losses were by a combined 5 pts.. This year our first two losses are by a combined 5 pts. Just a neat little bit of info I researched and found today. 

Yes but those two losses were against the eventual Super Bowl Champions and a fluke loss to the Bills. 
That’s 2013 squad would beat the pants out of this team.

Pretty sure Dalton could carve up this secondary after seeing what Brissett and Jones could do. If they play Jameis he probably won't throw deep

Dalton looked like a shell of the average player he was last time he got on the field.  

Hard to guess with Payton gone, but I think Hill could step in and beat us.  But not sure the new staff has the same Hill obsession.

That would get ugly fast. It would be fascinating to watch Riveras "mediocre" squad vs whatever this is, I guess Rhule's "Brand" of football

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
