Just sitting here watching Fua and McClain getting abused on NFL replay... we really need to consider making a move before the trade deadline. I'm not saying these guys won't develop into good players, but it's clear they're not ready.

I'm not even talking about finding a DT that can get penetration, I just want to find someone that can hold their ground - that would be an upgrade.

Wont happen. Development year

yep. Rivera is pretty much doing the same thing w/ them he is w/ Cam. Put a HUGE load on them and hope they grow up quick.

This season isn't about wins and losses.....just b/c Cam is surprising people doesn't mean what this season really is about changes.

Yeah, CatMan I've noticed it too, moreso Fua than McClain though. I've noticed we keep rotating Hardy and Johnson inside, whom are both great bullrushers and letting our deeper DE rotation get on the field-hate being forced to do that.

In fairness, New Orlean's interior OL is very good. Ron Fields has played well enough-he needs more time on the field.

Do fans get a refund for a throwaway season?

but is it really a throwaway season?

If this season helps guys get better quicker....is it really a waste? I mean, Cam's usage is a perfect example....probably could of squeaked out another win if we took some pressure of him in some key spots in the redzone, 3rd and 2nd situations, etc.....

Would you rather have that extra win or put it on a rookie to help him rapidly develop so that this team can get better quicker?

      I don't think anybody with a brain thought or thinks we are a legit super bowl contender this year.  I do LOVE the young core group that is forming. Part of the reason I defend Bryce Young is that if he is not good enough, we're going to waste a lot of this young talent we have anyway.  You don't go from 5-12 to super bowl contender in one offseason unless you get a major injury back or get an insane free agent haul. We currently can't hang with the best teams in the league.  We are also much closer than we were 365 days ago. Progress is good. There's still an outside shot at the playoffs, but I am really excited to see what Dan Morgan does with this offseason. Rico Dowdle a big decision. Jalen Coker, Brycen Tremaine, Cade Mays, Austin Corbett, Brady Christensen, Nick Scott and Christian Rozeboom are the guys we have to make decisions on. But this rebuild should be over next August. Or we have to do it again.  Improvements needed at pass rush and linebacker for sure.  Expecting us to win a super bowl this year is like expecting a kindergartener to do calculus. Is it possible? I guess so. but 99.9% shot it aint happening. We played like doo-doo against the bills, but that was definitely a penciled in loss from the day the schedule came out. Candidly though, if Bryce is ever going to be it, next year is the year we need to start being really good.

      Yeah he put us in too big of a hole in which we had to pass more.  3rd and long with a slow roll out and he tried to tuck in and run with a fumble in the redzone.  3rd and long with an INT on our side of the field.  Then we get to like the 10ish yard line with less that 30 second and no timeouts (even Greg said we have to try to quick throws here), what does Dalton do?  Take a sack allowing us to barely rush a FG out (which missed due to being rushed).  You absolutely can't take a sack there.  Throw in getting sacked 6 additional times with 2 additional turnovers.  He also missed TMac on a TD where Shaq was trying to cover him and missed an open JHJ on a big gain.  Box Score watching won't tell the story yet people are going to try to do it anyway.   Now it's pretty clear he isn't the upgrade that some were claiming he is, but they can spin it differently I'm sure.

      The combined record of teams we've beaten: 9-21. Some of y'all get fooled so easily.
