we need to bring in someone to push jake. look at carr for instance. yeah he was a shitty ass QB, but I think his presence is waht pushed jake to perform so well before he was injured. bring in a young qb with potential to push jake, and hopefully he will try harder.

Jeff Davidson needs to go. He completely abandoned the run game after two series, and that was the only way that we were going to win. What the hell was he thinking? I'll say that Jake did have an awful game, but its a hell of a lot harder to make turn overs when you keep the ball on the ground.

Where, exactly, was Jake supposed to throw to? After the run was ABANDONED OUT IN THE COLD AND MADE HOMELESS, they played the pass the entire time. Hard to throw the ball when you're a running team and you only have a few pass plays that actually work (and those plays are smothered with defenders).

our team has been competitive with fox and delhomme for a long time now. in the nfl, that's all you can ask for, really. i am more concerned about the fact that our defense is not tough at all. we never blitz, or bust anyone's spleen anymore. when's the last time we ended another team's player's career? the mnf against green bay? come on. hit somebody. broken tackles, open receivers and quarterbacks getting all day to pass and we're supposed to be a defensive team?

Why did we bring in DJ Hackett and Landon Johnson? Why didn't we replace Ken Lucas? Ken Lucas has taken a keary colbert like roll with the franchise. no more!

i gotta agree with thundermountain. After 5 years of play here and showing that he is always gonna do things like give games away, his turnovers yesterday were totally uncalled for. While i also agree that the playcalling was horrible, both on offense and defense. Our D needs to see some changes. Offense idk why we totally abandoned panther style football, we went to the pass almost immediately in the 2nd drive. And of the 6 turnovers 2 i think(maybe 3) were in the redzone. He cost us the game, again plain and simple.

Don't jump to that conclusion. Look at the coverage, look at the play-calling.

I agree. He is only the messenger. That being said I did see Cromartie say to one the coaches on the sideline "He threw it right to me".

Jake was given some bs plays to try to make, but he made some sh*t decissions.

Look at 6 turnovers:banghead:

Don't get rid of him because of just this game.

This is a much better argument.

And yeah, he should be blamed for his decisions, but he didn't have much to work with. Sometimes the stats lie, and sometimes we only see what we want to see (this goes both for the people I respond to [besides you, Connor ;)], and myself).

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
