Somebody check under the helmet - I don't think Jake ever left. If only Fox had the BALLS to pull a poorly performing starting QB.

If you're willing to pull your starting Quarterback after a bad game in week 1, you'd make a horrible coach. You'd kill Moore's confidence, not get to see if he has the ability to rebound in the coming weeks, and throw a rookie to the wolves. Give it some time.

He pulled his starter in 03 after 1 bad half, then we went to the superbowl. I disagree.

Delhomme wasn't a rookie at the time. And he was able to gain some experience prior in NFL Europe. Fox was also trying to make his mark by putting in a new QB, which he did. Not to mention Peete wasn't playing his best football the year before. Moore played great last year. I think he deserves a fair chance.

is anyone watching the Packers/Eagles game? Look at Aaron Rodgers play. The guy has his eyes constantly shifting across the field checking every read. That's what makes him so good.

I liked Moore last year but he seems like a different player this year. I noticed it in the preseason(I also saw Clausen doing the same thing) that every play he stared down the receiver. I knew who he was going to throw it to the second the ball was snapped.

Everyone is entitled to have a bad day. But the repeated terrible decisions in the red zone is more than just a bad day. That's just piss-poor ball management, even in a game as sloppy as this one. By the way, getting sacked several times, fumbling away the ball, and getting a concussion after a 3 interception performance is not a confidence booster either.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
