Hot Take Coming! (Tabor)

[Frank9999]

How many times are QBs drafted high and dont pan out? Its so hilarious how confident some people are with Bryce. I mean i really hope he turns a switch with some more talent/coaching but the reality is still that MOST high qb picks dont actually work out. Quit insulting people suggesting the possibility and get off your high horses.

I’d like to see Dalton start a couple games so we could truly evaluate what we have and who we should keep. If he sh1ts the bed, fine but to continue to watch Bryce struggle is unbearable.

Given what Tepper has said, 0% this happens.

I would rather sit Young too. There is no benefit to feeding him to the lions week after week.

If we dramatically change our offense(we won't) then maybe I would feel differently. I just think this is all very futile.

I gotta feeling we're going to see alot more Smith-Marsette and Blackshear. If anybody on this staff knows thier explosiveness it's Tabor. 

I'd also guess we're going to run the ball more. 

And yeah this Sunday will be ugly. Not as bad as Wilks first game imo but it has the potential. We still lack offensive weapons + our oline has been battered to death. And nah this won't be a Wilks 2.0 situation (lack of talent/injuries) but I do think he can win more games than Frank did. Just don't give the Bears the #1 pick.

I mean look at the last “good” QB class.  5 in the top 15.  Only one that looks to pan out was the textbook lab built guy in Trevor.  Franchises are already done with 3 of them.  Fields could be the next and make 4 of the 5 done. 

Trevor

Lance

Wilson

Fields

Problem for Tabor, is he is making adjustments which take time….and his next opponent is a top team against the run.  So, it’s going to be ugly.  But I think gets better after this weekend.

Honestly, Tabor coming in and looking competent, getting wins, but more importantly getting the players to show they care, could be what saves this franchise in a weird and morbid way.

Tabor isn't the permanent solution, but if he does that and the fans like him, such as with Wilkes last year, it could be the cover Tepper needs to fire another HC after next season so we can try and use a Top 3 pick to lure a new HC that we'd actually want.

I don't think we can fire another HC after next year, but hiring the interim the fans liked is about the only way he can then fire the HC after next season goes poorly and not get destroyed in the media for doing it 3 years in a row.  They'll look at it and say he went with the interim since things looked good once he took over, like he maybe should have done the year before, but then after a full season it showed he wasn't the guy and it was fair to look to replace him.
