4-1 for a backup QB.

Was honestly wanting them to pull KA in case Cam goes down again. Didn’t need to see KA throw a third interception and have his confidence totally shot. Dude has a lot to offer

I agree. If there was a game that you wouldnt want to put cam back in, wouldve have been this game.

I feel like the coaching staff knew just how good this defence would be against them, and kept KA in as a sacrafice.

I'm not convinced we can go 11-5 or 10-6.

It's certainly not a given for sure.  But what else do we have to look forward to except to believe we can?

We absolutely got outclassed today, but we've been in every other game, and could have won the Rams and first Bucs game.

We also easily could have lost the Texans game.

We're going to have to win some games we're not going to be favored in.

The percentages aren't going to be favorable.  But until it's over, why not believe and hope?

exactly this.

there are to many unknowns for this team at this juncture. If cam comes back, and isnt what we would hope him to be, then we are done. butttt, if he comes back, as healthy as he has ever been, then we could def have a chance to keep contending.

It isnt ideal, but it is enough to no throw in the towel as a fan.

Because cheering for a team and evaluating them are two different things.

I mean I could certainly hope that Darryl Williams becomes an anchor on our offensive line. If I'm evaluating him right now though, he comes off more like an anchor that's chained to your feet when the mafia throws you in the East River because you saw something you shouldn't have.

People ask me if I'm an optimist or a pessimist. My answer these days is that I'm an analyst.

All things considered and the situation he was thrown into KA absolutely deserves praise for guiding the team to that record. Unfortunately I don't know how far this offense is going to be able to go toward the playoffs against stiffer competition with the state of this OL. Our staff isn't exactly doing us favors for that issue with some of these depth chart decisions either. It's clear we are still going to require investments in that group.

Whoever ends up starting at QB next week the coaches need to put them in a better position to succeed with the gameplan as well. If we know our line is getting overmatched you don't want your guy back there waiting on long developing plays and taking blindside hits. Get the ball out.

He’s done better than a lot of other backups would’ve done in that spot. He was a fourth string quarterback last year. He bounced around, and didn’t get signed by several teams during tryouts. They saw a few things they liked, he came in and made some good plays, but it’s time to start transitioning back to Newton. This is not a bad player to have as your back up long-term. I said all week, today would be a good litmus test as to his future is a starter in this league. He didn’t pass the test. You don’t throw them in the trash, but you do have a better sense of where to go from here.
