Hurney and Fox still "have confidence in Jake."


Carl Spackler

Recommended Posts

"This move doesn't change anything about his future," said Hurney. "We feel the same about Jake as we did yesterday before we put him on I.R. We've made it clear we have confidence in Jake."

Hope to your ass fired along with Fox during the offseason

"You can go to a couple of games I threw the ball better than I did in many years," he said. "All in all, offensively, in my opinion, we didn't carry our end of the bargain, so to speak, especially the passing game."

Yes, only a couple games you threw well. The rest were poo and you cost us games. It may involved "we" some of the time, but it was mostly all just "you".

As for his 55.5 completion percentage, which is 4.2 percent below the career average he had coming into the season, Delhomme said:

"I think a lot of factors played into that, but ultimately when you throw the football, you're the last one who has it in your hands, so you've got to put the blame on the quarterback."

You're the one making the decision of where to throw it there genious.

I think this is just Fox and Hurney fluff. There will be riots if Jake is the starter again, and probably riots on the team. They can't be that stupid they really can't. Just because they have confidence in him doesn't mean he's still the unquestioned starter. They say they have confidence in any player on the team. So that's how I'm going to interpret it. There's just no way they can be that blind to see how much better the offense has been with Moore in there.

Wow. No way you attract top FA talent (at WR on any other position) with Jake at the helm. You better draft them and hope they don't hold out. In fact if I were Beeson, Peppers, Williams, etc I would demand a trade to get out of this situation.

    • It would depend on how we lost... If we lose a bunch of 17-13 . 20-7 type games where the defense plays well and offensively Bryce is sh***TING the bed...then he wouldn't get fired.  If we are losing 40-9, 38-14 type games..then yeah it's a possibility.   Couple that with our tough schedule.. if we show well in lets say half those games.. win either Seattle or New England game, at least 1 win vs division oponents.. he's good.  So imo.. to get fired he needs to : Loose badly against the top tier teams ie Blown out Show no progress offensively from last year. Show an unwillingness to bench Bryce again if he is horrible over multiple games ..  Get swept by the Saints again.  
    • I think he's gone, and rightfully so, if he turns in another losing record. The "talented roster," regardless of how true or not, is a double-edged sword. If the roster is so much improved now from 202X then why are you still producing losing seasons? On one hand, maybe that's what needs to happen. Have the GM hire the new coach, and then have the new coach pick his guy to run his system. That is typically how it works in the NFL. Not the forced inheritance deal we have had in place.
    • Hinging on Brooks to be our spark...be good if it happens... but not holding my breath....RB next draft. Morgan gambled...it would be a 2 year payoff if thing happened.
