This is what I think we need to do

First of all we need to upgrade our secondary big time maybe we can see what C.J. Wilson can or maybe pick one up from the F.A. or draft one. Ever since we limited Brees to 280 yards our secondary started to collapse.

Second of all we need to draft another quarterback so we can start new. I don't know if Jake is going to start next year but we need to draft a qb like Sanchez for maybe not now but the year after. I know Jake is loved in Carolina but I don't think he is a good qb most of his passes to Smith should have been deflected or intercepted. I think if we get a better quarterback we can be unstoppable.

The third thing we need to do is not be scared to fire some coordinators and coaches this year mostly the defensive coaches we have the players and potential to be like the Steelers and Ravens on defense but not with these coaches.

I know a lot you guys are going to disagree but that's what I think.

maybe wait a week or two so everything is not just a knee-jerk reaction. I hate Jake right now, but only b/c of an emotional last night.

Well if the drums in the organization were not already beating for at least thinking about making a change at QB, they sure are now.

In reality though I cannot put all of the blame on Jake...as much as I want to. The coaching staff poo the bed just as bad as Jake did. If we are making a change at QB, ill take a change at Defensive Coordinator and a starting CB. Hell, maybe Head Coach too......I dont really know about all that though.

Just don't try to find an instant winner in the FA or draft... it will only end in failure.

I would like to see some changes with the defensive staff and QB coach as well. We need someone who can teach the proper fundamentals of playing QB. I just don't believe our staff is very good at developing QB's. Matt Moore looked worse in preseason than he did last year.

    • In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.
    • Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
