If you were as bad at your job as Jake Delhomme is at his

As NFL QB is one of the toughest, most complex jobs out there it's kinda silly to compare.

If we had a suitable replacement, I'm sure it would have been done already. A few more stinkers and it will be done regardless.

I am a professional tree trimmer. If we make many mistakes and we may get the chance to live and tell about them. Hell the one wrong mistake and we will not live to tell. I dont wanna hear how freaking hard his job is! His job is PIE compared to mine.

That must be why there are so many people who can play QB in the NFL and so few tree trimmers.

Sorry but just because a job is more dangerous does not make it harder and certainly not more complex.

I'm sure you could take a good 20 healthy young people randomly and have well over half of them trimming trees with aplumb within a few weeks. I would bet huge sums of money not a one of them could play NFL QB even after a year.

I can prolly train any averger person to trim a plain apple tree. I have only seen very few i would have up in a 400 foot Redwood with me in the 21 years i been climbing because of the complex decisions, timing of them, and knowing how to keep your self safe in any given situation. The job is just as physical as NFL Football if you are doing more than just your neighbors cherry trees.

are you really, seriously, trying to say cutting twigs off some dumbass pine tree is harder than playing in the NFL?

    • I hope we're not going all in this year. We couldn't outright win our own division with a losing record. We had 2 anomalous wins. Typically you aren't going to win scoring 13 and have your opponent have an absolute train wreck offense.  Also, a team scoring 16 on 6 trips to the red zone is not normal either. I'm not trying to be a pessimist. We're not there. Bryce isn't there. Most of the year our offense legitimately struggled and the missing piece wasn't a TE. Keep building through the draft and reasonable FA. When we have a team that's on the edge of being able to make a legitimate SB run, then go all in. Otherwise, going all in right now feels like another Bryce situation. Sell out and pray. That's not how consistent winners are built. 
    • XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on.  I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here.  I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths.  At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie. 
    • I think we haven't praised Morgan/tilis enough. In this thread we have some huddles best and its hard to figure out what to do with the 19th pick, if you understand that. Im also posting what "I" believe they are doing and what I feel is best. Those FA signess send a clear signal- They are going all-in to win this coming season. If you factor that in, just believe it first, it 100% changes what going on with pick 19, cause 51st pick doesn't matter as the talent level drop is petty big between the two. So 19 is the biggest difference maker on the current plan of all-in for the 2026.  Then you factor in who will be there at, (I better hold off on my other strong thought here- I think trade up is the best help too, yes using that 3rd to do so too...) DT, ILB(Allen? he didn't run), OC, QB(ooo my I don't want to rage drool my hate again about how I feel here, plus F it draft TY simp not joking)....... those 4 groups don't have the "BPA" at 19. You can add ILB Hill in there, but I feel 19 just is too high, other disagree.  Slot or TE it is......Kenyon is the only TE worth a 1st and he's the classic draft dilemma- All sort of he's a top ten lock to he's a non-blocking one trick WR that's not even worth 2nd currency. Then there's he's the clear winner from the TE group, thus increases his value more no matter the opinion.  Honestly I see the Matt Millen outcome as the current odds favorite, I think the huddle would go bonkers for weeks as result......just the truth tho, WR had the highest odds to be the clear BPA and slot is a need...plus if we are talking about Walker being a one year deal, Coker is a one year too(he may have another controll yr, I got to confirm it tho). Plus God forbid Tmac gets hurt, the drop in talent from him or Coker to Moore is fuging scary, I'd say more than the recent OT stone fellow. It goes back back to adding talent no matter what, draft now help, and where are  the weak points are in the system you want to run....
