We aren’t far removed from evaluating talent. If fell off at approximately the time that Tepper inherited the franchise. So until we get some personnel in who can find quality players, your process is going to look a lot like drafting a QB like Bryce.

So because you don't trust the front office to find quality players, you'd rather be a slightly below average team in the NFL every season just so you aren't completely miserable every Sunday?

I honestly can't wrap my head around that thinking, it's asinine to me

I was against firing Rhule in season as it was only going to make us a better team in a worthless season and hurt our draft stock.

I was against benching Bryce for the same reason.

We're going to end up int he 7-10 draft pick range, yet again showing we can't even suck properly.  This franchise is going to forever be stuck in NFL purgatory, never picking at the top of the draft (unless we make a stupid trade again) but never good enough to actually compete for the playoffs.

Christ.....who fuging cares about draft order in week fuging 3

It’s asinine to think sucking out loud every year is going to eventually get you wins when our roster is deprived of talent from the top down.

Such a weird time to rant about winning 

Because I think winning games like this only hurts the franchise in the long run.  I don't want to be happy 5-7 times a season when we are able to be competitive, that's not being happy, that's tricking yourself that not getting blown out is enjoyable.

You know what's enjoyable?

Making the playoffs, going into a season with realistic expectations of being a contender, you know, the things good football teams are able to enjoy.

Not being competitive once a month, that's a loser mentality.  I can suffer through the pain for long term gains, but we just can't even do that right either

So if I bookmark this thread and bring it back up in 5 years, when we haven't had a winning season and still don't have a franchise QB... would I still be an idiot?

Because if I said the same stuff 5 years ago, people would have said the same thing then, but look at us now.

Cheering for losing is a losers mentality. You’re overthinking it.

Who the fug cares. I'm sick of this team playing for draft picks it's time we stop sucking balls and go be competitive. We were never a team that cares about early round picks, and the best teams in the league draft late and still manage to compete every year.

 

This take is weak. Small minded and pussified.

This is my point though, we haven't played for draft picks since 2010 and we just tossed Clausen out there to the wolves.

Ever since then we've always tried to win meaningless games instead of playing for the draft picks, and it hasn't worked.

In Cam's prime I was okay with it, having a QB like that changes the equation.  But when you don't have that QB and you have such a dearth of talent as we do now, you need to play for the draft picks a bit and it's just not something we've actually ever done in earnest, hence why we haven't had a Top 5 draft pick since 2011 (not counting the one we had to make a stupid trade to get or the one we didn't have ourselves because of said stupid trade).

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By The Question · Posted

      You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with.

      I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
