Give a Hooker a chance

If he couldn't improve against the 1-8 Saints, I doubt we getting much improvement against the Rams, 49ers. Seahawks, Bucs teams coming up. 

While I do think the gameplan is to blame for some of the problems, for example you can’t expect Bryce to put up big yards when he is barely passing the ball 20 times. I also think we need to demote Legette and let Coker get his reps.

 

I do have a problem with giving up on a Qb after 3 years. Look at Alex smith for example, he was worse than Bryce but finally put it together in about 5 years. It takes some player’s time to develop. I say let Bryce play and then we decide what to do with him at the end of the season. We have no young QB to replace him we and can’t expect to sign one off the street and start.

No he's not, and there are reasons.

Hooker wasn't (isn't) an NFL quarterback.

He was fun to watch in college, but a pro career ain't happnin'

I do agree with you on that. To me, he was purely just brought in to run scout team. Otherwise there wouldn’t have been all the panic to sign White when they did.

There isn't one.

Well, I sort of get it.  Same principle as why Morgan went into the season with the situation looking like it did.  

I mean, there are tiers of bad QBs.  You put a PJ Walker type bad out there with the team and the entire org and players would see a bad QB doing stuff the starting bad QB can’t do

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
