... What?

I don't start my new job until Monday so I have a ton of free time to kill at the moment

I can live with any of the current 4 winning the ship. Once the Bucs were eliminated it felt like I could just enjoy football for the first time since week 3.

I mean keep making alts, You were banned for legit reasons previously... multiple times.

Oh Jeez, I just looked up OP's IP. It all makes sense now.

Like it or not, Cam hasn't been the same since his shoulder injury. Ever since then, there's been an excuse/excuses for him: 2016 - Shoulder injury 2017 - Recovering from shoulder surgery 2018 - TJ Watt Reaggravating shoulder injury 2019 - That Bitch Liz Frank (cousin of Tommy Jone) 2020 - His teammates sucked 2021 - Came in too late Legitimate excuses? Maybe. Still doesn't change the fact that he hasn't had a full season of great QB since 2015. That's 6 years of below average QB play since his MVP season... Injuries derailed his career. It sucks, I love Cam but it's been too long since he was good, and let's be real, it's not like Rhule and Co will actually bring out the best of him. Let him go elsewhere and prove he's still good, if nothing else than for his own sake.

So I'm watching more tape on Howell and I'm seeing way more stuff I DON'T like about his game First and foremost: The ball pats and windup. Holy crap, I am not sure what his average time to throw is, but I'd wager it's one of the worst in the class thanks to the ball pat he has to do before he throws, and then his long, outfielder like windup to throw the ball. It is bad. Really bad. Generally speaking, throwing motion isn't something that can get coached out at this point (see Cam Newton and The Golden Calf of Bristol as examples). This is a problem not only for secondary guys getting a jump on him, but also D-Linemen being able to get sack fumble son him at the next level due to the eternity it takes to get rid of the ball. Secondly: He does not seem to process the field quickly. I don't know if that's the offense UNC runs, but he doesn't seem to move from his reads quickly. The more I see the less I like, especially at 6. Howell is sliding down my personal board.

Well those stats are completely disingenuous: Cam 2020 PASSING stats: 2,657 yards, 8 TDs 10 INTs across 15 games 177 yards/Game Jimmy G 2021 PASSING stats: 3810 yards, 20 TDs 12 INTs across 15 games 254 yards/game Cam is nothing more than a redzone threat these days. It is unfortunate, but it is the truth. Cam's first job as a QB is to throw the Football. He is not as good at that as he once was. Truth be told he hasn't been great at it since 2015. We are at that point in a relationship where we have broken up, gotten back together, know there is no future between us, but still love each other so much that we don't want to let go... Even though we both know it's not going to work. It's time to move on.

Nah, he's always had a screw loose, everything started coming out after the hit though.

Yeah I'm done as a fan if that happens.

I have a sneaking suspicion that we are taking a QB at 6.

Honestly, I know it's a "Down Year" for QB but I really would not be surprised to see a few of these guys pop off. Based on the limited tape I have seen, I like all of Pickett, Corral, Strong, and Howell and think they could succeed if they end up in the right situation... Meaning If none of them get drafted by us.

A few things though: a) I doubt he would actually waive his no trade clause for us b) We can't afford his contract c) If we somehow got him and afforded his contract, we wouldn't be able to field a competitive team with him d) He's an accused rapist who has not settled his legal disputes Nothing about trading for Watson makes sense.

Imagine if in baseball the visiting team hits a HR in the top of extras and the home team doesn't get a chance to bat. That's essentially NFL OT rules.

Moore would definitely start. Gilmore as well. CMC if he were healthy. That's about all I've got.

Watson would not fix the poo-ton of issues that Matt Rhule has created for this team. Paying 3 first round picks for him would only hurt us more. We aren't a QB away from being good. We're a QB, OL, and entire coaching staff away.

Well first of all, We have won only 3 division games the past two years, not 4, and none of those wins came against Brady or Brees, so I'd learn to count before you call someone else inbred. 1 win against Jameis and the Saint's second team thanks to covid this year 2 wins against the Falcons who we have split the series with the past two seasons and they are still overall better than us the past two years (11 wins to our 10). 0 Wins against Brees or Brady. Secondly, There are better examples than the Bengals, won't argue that, because we are going into year 3 and year 3 is when the Bengals finally made the post season (Cowboys, Eagles, Bills, Rams, Browns, Titans are all better more recent examples). But again, the Bengals were in better shape entering year 3 than we currently are.

They doubled their win total from year 1 to year 2 (with a tie as well) and lost their rookie franchise QB who showed tons of promise after he was injured in week 10. That's progress and the argument to stick with Taylor made sense because the progress was evident. Our progress is apparently there 1000%, we just can't see it.

Oh my god pleaaaaaaaaaaaase Davis. Please lure Harbaugh to LV. Please. Please? Pretty Please?

Nope

I don't agree with you in the slightest but I respect that you actually believe this and seem willing to die on this hill.

I have a week off next week (Taking a week off before I start my new job), I'll start throwing the thread together.

You are one patient dude. Considering the average NFL career is 3 years, you are potentially wasting numerous players entire careers by holding onto a coach after 2 consecutive years of losing.

I have done the deep dive, I can start a thread and show the evidence if need be. Since the year 2000, if a coach misses the playoffs in the first two years and does not improve their record from year one to year two, they do not become a successful coach. Two years is plenty of time to assess if a coach has what it takes to make it in the league as a HC.
