With Dalton.

He told the coaches he's got some new "special" gloves.

Jean Fridays, though...am I right? I don't know if the Big Cat is laughing at Tepper in the hereafter or rolling over in his grave for what David's done to his beloved team.

BUT WE HAVE TO GET OUR QB THIS DRAFT...NO MATTER WHAT!!!! Me:

He signed his contract, so yeah, he literally signed up for this. Also, #1 picks usually go to bad teams, so if this is somehow taking him by surprise...well, SURPRISE!

I've sworn off the Huddle twice before, one of those times approximately four years in duration. It has it's ebbs and flows. One instance where I quit posting was a time when the personal attacks went nearly unchecked by mods and another instance where a mod (long since gone) and I got into it. During good times this place isn't too bad, but times like this, it gets pretty intolerable. As long as mods doesn't pick favorites and keeps the personal attacks in check by poo flinging posters, I'll continue to linger around...for now. Enjoy your retirement Mr. Scot.

Under 50% isn't acceptable of a NFL QB, especially the #1 overall pick. I know he's a rookie, but he's got to do better.

4 of 9 for a TD and pick in the 10-20 yard range. You guys say it's Frank play calling, but Frank isn't the one who is lukewarm completing passes beyond 10 yards.

After taking a few more on the chin, maybe Bryce's ankle injury flares up again. It's frustrating to know that QB play is the difference in the 0-5 and 2-3 or 3-2.

Yep, It would have been better to have eased Bryce in, like after the bye week, then to start him right out of the gate and get abused. Nobody is going to take it easy on a rookie QB in the NFL. Now we are looking at 0-17 as a real possibility because the front office has already made the commitment to ride with him no matter what. At least if Bryce went winless after the bye, Dalton would have gotten us at least a few wins to make this season a little more tolerable.

Morale is a real thing. The entire team can go in a funk (already probably are) or hurt Bryce's ego with a mini-benching. If Bryce is as mentally strong as they claim, sitting him for a few games to get this thing back on track shouldn't scar him. He should embrace it honestly and learn from a veteran for a bit.

Yes.

Bryce does not see the whole field. Guys are open and he's not finding them.

The one shot he took long and outside the numbers was his most inaccurate throw of the day with a clean pocket.

We won't get a team's current #1, it has to be a guy that could be a #1 given the opportunity, snaps and experience.

Kupp can't stay healthy. The Nacua kid is killing it though.

I would try the Rams again for a 1st, 2nd and Puka Nacua for Brian Burns. We ain't getting no teams #1 WR, not short of a Kings ransom. Also it's too early in the season, everyone is still in playoff race yet in theory (even us).

37 points given up and 8 false starts. Dalton wasn't the problem that game.

Look, we need to sit him for a while before moral goes totally in the toilet. I'm not talking about a permanent benching, but at least a few games and let's get a win or two under our belts, then ease the rookie back in. I'm still pissed we missed that opprtunity last week versus a VERY beatable Vikings team. If Dalton starts that game, we got our first 'W' of the year.

I'm old enough to get that reference, lo!

But Andy had to ask for those plays!!!!!!! Yeah and Andy got them and executed them.

But the coaching staff is supposed to take all the heat for his play? Bryce is gonna get some people fired.

If you say so.

I want to know if any routes beyond 15 yards are being presented outside the the numbers.
