Ditching Steve Beuerlein for Jeff Lewis was Seifert's fatal error.

EVER, for me. Even the Pickles year, Fox lame duck year and yes, even 2001. Even the 2001 team was competitive with a less talented roster until the last two games where they packed it in. Heck, they even lost 2 OT games. We can't even get to OT with this squad under Rhule.

Now I can root for my team again!!!! Whoot!!!

OP must have waked and baked this morning.

Yep, I have. Have you seen the amount of first round QB busts that set back franchises several years? At least with a pick outside the top 10 (trade back obviously) if the dude busts we can move on more easily. Top 5 QB picks, especially #1, are pressured to save the franchise right off the rip and goes sour more times than not.

Not that it really matters, but I think we have a 7th too. IIRC, we traded it away, but got it back in another trade...Daley, I think. The 3rd rounder loss stings, those guys generally contribute even in their rookie season.

Not as top heavy, but I'm okay with that. I want to wait until later in the round or round 2 to nab our QB. This class is deep, it doesn't have a whole lot of hype outside of Young and Stroud. I'm cool with that because production wins games, not hype.

So when you score more points than the other team, you win the game? Fug, why didn't I think of that????

Trade him, get a pick because we need draft capital for the new coaching staff.

To be fair, I start to think about the draft this early every year. I am just digging a little deeper than usual this sesaon. So, we DO NOT want the #1 overall pick or #2 for that matter. I am not sold on Young or Stroud. We want to be behind the Commando-skins. They will DEFINITELY take one of those guys. The Lions, Falcons and Texans could be in the market.

Sam was a calculated risk at one year. The rest we all knew were JAGS. I mean Thomas is a poor mans JAG.

Fact check: False First loss wasn't until week 8.

Did anyone else see this, lol!!!!!!!!!!

You can always re-register, you will just lose your post count.

Man...that boiled cabbage, broccoli salad and deviled eggs combo was a bad choice.

We knew the 49ers had already hit their magic number, so now it's how bad do they want to embarrass us?

There you go fellas.

I predict all Panthers fan will be seeing red by the end of the game.

To give the fan base, especially PSL holders, some hope that the team doesn't actually suck, it was just the head coach. Take a look at Nebraska and Georgia Tech...much more competitive teams since they canned their respective HCs. I bet if you asked their season ticket holders if eating the buyout money was worth ditching their ineffective HCs early on rather than needlessly hanging onto them, I bet they would say absolutely!

Stop giving us false hope. Tepper is not willing to admit he's wrong, eat Rhule's remaining contract or part with his sloppy dressed brother from another mother.

Matter in terms of the playoffs? No, this season it already done. Matter in terms of this coaching staff hanging on by a thread or getting shown the door? That matters A LOT!

Hopefully a mud stomping by the 49ers. This is really, REALLY hard not to root for my favorite team, but I know we have to continue to suck before Rhule is fired. Even if we continue to suck the remaining games (however many that may be) after Rhule is canned, I can at least start pulling for us to actually win again.

Hurts was a 2nd and it took it him a bit longer to develop, but he was considered a project with potential that could be a franchise QB. A first rounder, especially top 5 IS a franchise QB and is expected to be the savior of the franchise right away. Had Hurts been a first rounder, he'd been considered a borderline bust up until this season.
