Cooper Rush, Daniel Jones, Marcus Mariotta… all proving that you can have a benchwarmer or career-to-date below average QB and win games with capable and in places impressive offensive production.

Smart coaching helps...a lot.

But I'm not sure even Sean Payton could accomplish much with PJ Walker as his QB.

1) Chewing gum with your wife is no substitute for putting ketchup on a steak.

2) Fighting among coaches is more fun than when it's between the players.

3) Wilks is closer to looking and acting like Fred Sanford than I ever realized. 

4) Can things get worse after Rhule??.............yes sir they can. 

5) Robbie Anderson likes looking like a helicopter. 

6) Old coach McAdoo had a farm Eee - i - Eee - i .......Ohhh no........ 

7) A black cat and colors of black and blue fit it all..........unlucky and beat up.

Its absolutely good enough to keep us in games and if we even resembled a pro offense were at worst sitting at 3-3 right now

I think you are right.  Defense generated 7 points yesterday and then played the second half without their 2 starting corners and it showed.  Offense generated 3 points.  You can only expect so much out of the defense.  They are not the problem.

It certainly feels that way, I just wonder though, obviously the players will play, but how does an organization start that conversation?

Feels like it would be a hard thing to sell Wilks on, he doesn't really gain anything by tanking - just further tarnishing his record as a HC, just to get let go at the end of the season.

Same with Fitterer - unless he was given assurances he is being retained regardless of the outcome of the season, which he may have been.

wilks is thankfully so bad and inept that him trying to win causes this.

At least these QB's are NFL caliber backups. PJ just isn't. He's only here due to multiple injuries. If we had cut him like planned (I assume), no one else was waiting in the wings to snatch him up.

    • XL could easily be the last dog at the bowl for WR production next year.  That could leave him around 200-300 yards which would be disastrous.
    • Well sure, that's where the disconnect is then. If Thielen only gets 300-400 yards and T-Mac is healthy for the full season, then I'm with you guys, in that scenario there is absolutely zero excuse for him to not put up over 1,000 yards.   In fact, I'll let you double that, if Thielen has only 600 yards, then again, my expectations are for T-Mac to surpass the 1k mark with ease. But his game has never been about his physical abilities, so even if he loses a half a step, he's still the same player who is a savvy route runner who will get open and Bryce will continue to find him due to their chemistry.  Particularly since Bryce isn't a QB who forces things, he takes what the defense gives him.  So when teams focus on T-Mac and Thielen is more free to find those holes in the defense than he has the last two years, I don't think Bryce is going to ignore him. If someone wants to argue for T-Mac getting to 1,000 yards, personally, I'd say those yards would be far more likelier to come from XL and Coker than Thielen.  And that has nothing to do with XL or Coker, but that I'm still a firm believer in Thielen being able to still get 50-60 yards a game, again, particularly as he'll have less defensive attention on him than in either of his 2 seasons with us so far. Just because T-Mac is our #1 of the future who will have the ball forced to him at times, doesn't mean he needs to be forced into that role from day 1 when we have 3 very legitimate WR options next to him. Let the rookie grow into the role and the NFL game, we have that ability to do so because of Thielen, XL, and Coker.
    • Spot on. He's only 20 and his height 6'2 and weight 230lbs might make him more of an off-ball LB possibility. He's a multi-year project
