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?

      It was nothing. It was a nice run in an easy schedule that did nothing but lose us DJ Moore and a lot more. We were 2-15 in 2023. Based on your logic, that winning finish should have been a launching point. For as much as you want to say we shouldn’t have taken a risk, you still can’t admit that the plans we tankers laid out were proven correct. There’s no revisionist history. We said we should have traded Burns to the Rams. We said we should have sold off anything not bolted down like Brown and Horn and even Icky because they were in the 5 year plan. There is no disconnect, we tried to keep winning and draft a rookie QB and we lost about 4 1st round picks of value that could have been given to the guys you think might be the right crew.

      You’re assuming Fitt still gets fired at the same time. That’s the problem with all these hypothetical hindsight thoughts. If we had a fire sale so to speak I’m not sure the GM gets fired a year or two later due to a bad roster and bad record. Fitt went into win now mode, made it seem like we were only a QB away “we won’t drafting this high again” trading picks for vets etc and when he couldn’t show results he was fired. I’m sure this was all mentioned in his GM interviews. What’s his plan to turn us around and how quickly can he do it. Also you want last year’s CMC and Burns on our roster? At their price? Moving on from both was the right call, with Burns being the wrong time. If a team does a full roster strip down rebuild it can buy the GM more time as long as everyone is on the same page.
