I'm definitely glad we went with developing our own young kicker instead of trying to sign another teams discarded guy again.

Agreed he is playing better and taking what the defense is giving him and I give him credit for that and the plays he made as I've said this afternoon already. As far as becoming a franchise QB to the point we don't need to consider the position a need going forward. That isn't going to happen for me with anything less than him taking over games throughout the season with his arm. Until I see that he is a game manager at best. And if that is what he remains and some people think that's enough to give him an extension I would say that is the worst case scenario of purgatory. Just me being honest.

Look. Jake after the surgery yeah no argument. Before though? Let's not get carried away. He's up there with Cam no doubt.

Someone should ask Evero about it. But the guys came ready to play.

This season.

For all the talk of a "dawg" mentality the last couple years. That is precisely it. You want players with the confidence to do this. Those are building blocks.

I mean if he could hit TMac in stride consistently downfield instead of him having to slow up for the ball we could be opening up a wider lead. While the receivers have had their laspses at times ball placement has been an issue too often than it should be this season. But I've got people trying to tell me our two best QB's in franchise history couldn't add points to the board with the historic rushing from Rico Dowdle. Amuses me.

Yeah that's one key aspect I'll give him specific credit for is he handled the pressure much better today. Minus the balls thrown into the dirt which if I'm being honest need to stop 35 games into his career.

I was under the impression we wanted to strike the rookie season from the record because he had no help

Steve had his best years with Jake and Cam. How did he do with Jimmy Clausen?

When was the last time you legitimately criticized him let alone called him "ass"?

The offense under Cam thrived with an opportunistic defense. That's what we currently have. We left points on the board today too let's keep it real.

You cannot just disregard the difference in the passing attack between the three in their prime. Their arm talent was different. All there is to it.

If the team had prime Cam or Jake we would have dropped 50 on the Cowboys.

And at the direct expense of the Cowboys in the win column and in their own loss to their roster.

After all that hand wringing over a 35 year old Adam Thielen lol

Seems odd to list the last 2 weeks while omitting the impact of the historic yardage from Dowdle.

It is nice to have offensive weapons that I've been told we didn't actually have. And our staff is actually developing them.

I'd say some credit is due to Joe Gilbert.

Hoping for a tie they can both get fuged.

It is not hyperbole to say that Rico Dowdle has been the catalyst to our offensive resurgence as a whole since the Patriots loss. He deserves all the game balls.

You are referring to the DL players only meeting about the lack of sacks? I mean regardless of Canales that's what you want to see. That's how you build a culture. Your players taking accountability on their own instead of needing to be told to.

That's what I've been saying. Specifically credit to our head coach who has taken a lot of heat of his own. He has had the team motivated and playing hard

So far this draft is really solid. Need to see how they finish the season but it's a damn nice sight to see.

They are doing the damn thing. And that's with key free agent acquisition Wharton out. Credit to them.
