It really is terrible when you look at it that way.  Though we still have our 2025 1st round pick, I'm not sure where that one comes into play unless thy reconning the LA trade. In my own copium, let's look at it this way:

1. Keep CMC: continue to muddle about, maybe win two more games under Wilks, slip out of top 10.

2. In 2023: we'd have to trade the farm to go up and get one of the top 3 QBs, or else we have to find a one year rental QB.  Which do we choose?  Win more with a rental, or embrace the suck.  Is Reich the coach?  In this alternate dimension, does Wilks actually get his shot?  So we keep Wilks, playing with JAG QB, running and playing tough D, we extend Burns for the money he wanted since he's the franchise.  We win 8/9 games, close to the division.

3. So here at 2024, we DO NOT have the first overall.  We are at a 12 to 17 for ours, the Rams a little later.  Who do you trade those with to move upwards?  

You could absolutely argue we're better, but again, playing revisionist history is exhausting lol.  Better ask an AI to do it!

Right or wrong, good or bad, it doesn't matter.  We're where we are because of past decisions.  Scott Fitterer was a pretty terrible GM.  Now Dan Morgan, for better or worse is left to pick up those pieces and try to rebuild.

It is a real poo show to look at that way, but it's just not that simple, given how fluid the NFL is.  If one thing changes (like we don't trade CMC), it moves everything else.

100%. Playing revisionist history like that always dumb imo. If we don’t trade CMC, it changes everything that comes after. If we do trade Burns to the Rams, it changes everything that comes after. Jesus, it’s almost like none of these people saw the Ashton Kutcher classic “Butterfly Effect”.

In on every deal, yo.

Yeah there's that. Morgan better have what not to do from his buddy Fitterer. If he didn't his time as the guy will be a short one. Unfortunately for us if he is a Fitterer clone in team building we will be right back here in 2 years.

    • He's been pretty much what he's been since he entered the NFL. They overpaid him to play out of position essentially. He has still matched around his average production from previous years but you don't pay FAs to come in and be better than what they've shown. Definitely overpaid but it is what it is hopefully he can make some plays down the stretch and we'll all feel a little better about it
    • This is becoming a meme at this point. His name is Rozeboom lol
    • 10 years ago, the reactions to this thread would have at the least made me question myself and what I’m seeing in my evaluation versus what I’m feeling.  But not now.  I know where this mentality comes from and we’re seeing it unfold in real-time, everyday in society.  Call someone else dumb while any and all statistics supports their argument, but if you just keep doubling down, you can make people forget about facts. It’s also why my replies to this despite 16 pages have been pretty sparse outside of one, and that post was mostly ignored because it called the BS out for what it is.     I don’t take it personal, because I know for them, it is VERY personal.  Not a person alive on this planet is going to tell me, nor convince me, that any other starter in the NFL isn’t more physically talented than Bryce.  We have all read and seen the stats - 32nd out of 32 starters since being drafted.  We have watched the games.  Countless games where Bryce struggles to hit 100 yards until the 4th.  Countless times he fumbles untouched, trips over his own feet, under throws or throws behind, or just throws straight to a defender who has been lurking in the same spot from the snap.  But, there is this mysterious ancient metric that us simpletons have not gained access to, that makes him better than the stats and eye test combined.🤣🤣🤣 Kyler Murray is wildly physically gifted, but especially for his size.  He has a laser arm, and he’s a quick, twitchy athlete.  Baseball background, multi-sport star.  And he’s statistically better than Bryce.  In my observations and estimation, his only downside is I don’t think he has ever applied himself and he doesn’t prepare as he should.  He relies on his talent alone, and I think that also carries over to questions about leadership.  But, all of that considered, these guys don’t want him over Bryce.  So again, I ask why?  The same logic is applied to Shedeur.  Hell, I would apply the same logic to Brissett.  Jameis.  Any fuging body with physical talent to throw a football.  If you have the worst starter in the league, proven over almost three full years, what do you owe him?  Hint: It’s not another year.  One can deduce from that point that you could easily find a replacement that will give you better production, even from someone who isn’t a current starter.     I knew society had gotten dumber, but damn…  “don’t tell me what’s better!  I want to keep fuging myself and nobody can stop me!”🤣🤣🤣
