From our front office making some extremely boneheaded deal before the deadline 

Yeah the loss itself was tough and this team showed a ton of grit but I can’t help but think they would’ve done something incredibly dumb because we would’ve been in first place 

When we stumbled into the playoffs in 2014 at 7-8-1 we had our franchise QB and having them gain valuable playoff experience was worth it.

It is much different when we’re looking for our QB still. Those draft slots are more valuable now

When it looks like Bryce and Stroud are the only 1st rounders at QB, we really need to be in position.  The entire NFC will be needing QBs next year subtract Dallas, Philly & MIN.  Seriously, the entire conference.  

Trading up for one will not be easy.  Today was a heartbreaker but it is true.

They’re going to identify their guy and do whatever they can to go get him. I much rather see them move up from 7 than 18 or something 

Ideally a team that has a QB is in the top 3. Like Jacksonville. Although I don’t think Lawrence is all that but they’re one of the very few teams that would likely be willing to trade out

Seriously, that's something I'm realizing this year.  I know JAX hasn't given him much but they've got the guy that even with a bad team, gets QBs to look good.  The running game was a monster, and his arm just doesn't seem good.  His arm strength seems gumby like and he just doesn't create.  Starting to look pretty iffy for me with Trevor.  

My favorite story right now: Tua is turning into the pre-college injury monster everyone thought he was while others were saying Trevor was the next GOAT.  Different drafts but that Trevor noise was loud and for some time much like Luck.  Those were the two mega-hyped ones in the internet age.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
