That is a problem.  Indicates lack of balance or lack of options otherwise.  And predictability.  Fact that we still lost by such a wide margin tells you it's a shitty desperate strategy to rely on. 

It'll be a miracle if cmc makes it healthy all the way through the year.  Even if he does he's getting used up so much by the time he hits 28 or 29 he'll hit the wall even earlier and be washed before 30

Better trade his ass now before you get hardly anything for him when the above mentioned happens or he get injured again then literally no one will want him

It demonstrates the importance of QB play in the NFL.  You can have a good rest of your team (and I'd still argue there is plenty of talent on our team), but until you have a good QB, you have nothing.

Cam carried Rivera.  Not that Ron was a terrible coach, but he made plenty of bone headed calls as a HC that Cam and Luke dug him out of over the years.

Right now, we have a team without a QB.  Sure, it would have been nice to see undefeated PJ Walker come out and win a game for us.  But that was unrealistic.  PJ had a week of practice after spending months running scout team or less.  PJ is our #4 QB and Eason is #5.

We don't have a QB right now.  

I love what CMC does.  Man, he's a beautiful machine of a RB. BUT, he's not a QB.  Until there is a QB, teams will just spy CMC all day long.  Because of his talent, he's still going to put up numbers, but it won't lead to wins.  It sucks, but that's just what it is.

Though I agree fundamentally in most respects, yesterday was P.J. Walker's worse game by far. I'd say that his performance also speaks to coaching.

Absolutely.  We are just dealing with a load of crap out there - not Wilk's fault, but what he got.

The reality is that we need a QB and a coach who can coach the QB.

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.

      Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.
