Thielen was traded away right before our season started. Coker got hurt right before our season started. Renfrow, a player that hasn't played in a while went from cut to being thrust onto the field. Moore, the one vet we did keep, is currently out. Bad things seem to happen trying to throw to XL. Oh, and Tremble was out for a few weeks while Sanders is currently out himself. Simply starting the fact that we can't even keep a #2 on the field. You're hoping one of the many rookies pulls off a Coker and starts having consistent production.

Remember that this franchise was willing to give away the farm for Deshaun Watson. Massive red flag that we were less trying to build a team than believing that we just needed to hit on a lotto ticket with just one guy. That's not how it works. And no, we cannot make that same mistake again. I look at this staff and this roster and ask myself whether it's ready to support yet another high draft round QB who can win it all for us before we have to pay them that big contract. That's a no right now. Questionable coach, one potential playmaker with T-Mac, and questionable O-line with all the injuries equals almost feeling bad for the (potentially) next guy coming in.

I remember David Carr being in this position when he played for us way back in 2007 many times over.

You never count the Chiefs out, but not the best start.

Is that the game-winning tumble?

Guess they weren't good.

The changes in the k-ball rules for this year are apparently also having an impact.

Ah, the replay shows the refs giving the Chiefs a freebie. My mistake.

Trevor Lawrence reminds us he is Trevor Lawrence.

Did not see that pick six coming.

That was a pathetic showing by the Jacksonville D.

3rd and 2, spread it wide? Who let Canales make that playcall?

We could have our best overall game as a unit and we'd still lose because any long time fan knows how the refs tend to screw us over the most when it's the Cowchickens.

He still has an uphill climb, but a game like today helps.

Oh, my... I didn't realize there was a Cardinals player that did the dropping the ball short of the end zone too.

Well, that's a statement win for the Patriots. I'm hoping this doesn't mean the start of another dynasty, though.

Bills rivalries uniform may be the least ugliest of the group, and that is not a compliment.

Just saw it. So I assume the defender wasn't down by contact? Oh, boy. And the Cards just lost. Yikes. Cam Ward with his first W as a pro.

Darnold and Mayfield have better teams around them than they ever had here. I still remember the slander they both got. To be fair, I was rather harsh on Mayfield but had you seen his "play", it made sense. Herbert with a red zone interception. And they had it at the one too. Oof.

Injuries galore and no Jackson. Just realized Saints got their first win today. Gross.

Wait. We won? For once, we clawed our way out of the hole we dug ourselves into. I think this gif would be appropriate...

Not McVay's finest moment. At least put the game on Stafford's hands there.

Kyren Williams fumbling? Say it ain't so.

Both of these offenses are like many others in the league, so much dink and dunk. But they make it work somehow. Their guys can block. Their guys can get open. Even back to the Rhule era, our team can't even run a damn screen without having it blown up.

The thing I'm noticing with Canales is that he often doesn't actually follow through with what he says. If we can even get a 2nd and short, I fully expect some super long developing pass play with everyone going deep, a great idea when our pass protection is disintegrating every week.
