I'm having a hard time understanding how people are listing us under 8-8 after we finished 8-8 last season with the 2nd worst starting quarterback in the league taking snaps for more than half the season..

like I get the whole small market team, and not getting any respect, but seriously? we lose one impact player and replace him with several good players and suddenly we're a sub .500 team?(with a lot of people rating us at 6-10 lol.)

Add our easier schedule into the mix and it doesn't make sense to me :out:. That article brought up some good points and you'd think they would have to assume our current QB situation is an upgrade. People are looking way too deep into Peppers' impact here. And hell, he's been replaced thus far!

    • That's likely going to tell the story. He'll have two weeks to prepare, so no excuses.
    • You don't rotate offensive linemen dude shown me one time thats happened for us that wasnt because of a player leaving due to injury or a jumbo package ill wait.
    • I didn't say I thought throwing it was a bad decision, I said I thought not running those 3-5 yard routes to pick up the 1st down wasn't a great call.  Yes the play worked out, but I didn't love the play call, it's like when a bad shooter is taking a 3 and you're yelling "no no no" as they're going up and then they make it so it worked out. That's still gambling on them to make the play and I take no issue with that. But I just went and watched the play again, we had T-Mac and XL running downfield crossing routes, Coker went in motion behind the LOS and then moved up a yard or two after the snap but not even past the LOS, Sanders chipped the DE and then ran a drag route right long the LOS. The play worked out, but I don't really like that particular play call and route tree with the game on the line on a 4th and 2.  If you want to send one route downfield as an option that's fine, but there were only 2 realistic target options with that route tree and they were both 15-20 yards downfield. This is just before Bryce is going to throw it.   You have 2 players off screen downfield, one player who ran a route that never had a chance to get open and didn't even get to the 1st down line, another player just at the line to gain but late in the route because of a chip (and the worst pass catcher of the 4). Do you really think that was a "good play call" in that situation?
