I get it, everyone is always looking for an excuse to blame Rhule.  The coaching staff saw where Corral was and knew he was going to need more time.  They knew it when they had him 4th on the depth chart.  They knew it when they let PJ get more reps to judge the rest of the offensive players on.  If anything this just shows maybe the coaching staff was right on where Corral was and the huddle was wrong.  Nah, I'm sure the huddle knows more and if he had gotten more reps he would be the starter by now.. Corral isnt ready.  It's going to take time.  Everyone who saw the offense he came from in college knew that and that's ok.  Stop trying to spin everything into the coach's fault because you dont like him.  Corral just isnt ready yet.  That's why they traded for Mayfield.

So are you saying the staff knew Willis and Howell were more ready to play then corral but if we develop MC he will be better then both?  Because thats kindof what it feels like you are saying in a round a bout way.  If thats the case then I am not sure why we are trading draft capital for someone like that when in hindsight it appears we simply could have waited and drafted him

I dont think its that easy to simply "coach up" and develop them.  Just like your last post says its incredibly rare a guy past the top 40 (not sure why you picked 40) to hit.  If developing a qb was a thing more teams would be doing it as good franchise qbs are the rarest things on earth

 

For the most part you either have it or you dont.  This is in no way degrading Corral just saying in general.   Scott was there when Wilson came in and literally just took the starting job so who knows, or at least I would hope he knows what it looks like and if MC has it he needs to be turning the screws on Rhule


In theory it’s possible, but it requires real playing time. No coach is going to risk his job hoping a third rounder gets better by December.

I agree with you completely for a change.  People want to scapegoat the performance entirely on coaching.  Some players could have all the reps and the best coaching staff in the league for development and most of your mid to late round draft picks still arent going to pan out.  Hopefully corral will but using this performance to hate on the coaches is a bit weird.  He needs time more than anything

jake led a second half comeback in his first appearance.  Dude showed moxie from the get go

There are so many moving parts to this response and I will preface this by saying when Jake showed up and we went to the Superbowl.....yeah good times I remember them well. All that said, leading a comeback with a stacked o-line, a hell of a running game, and good to great wide recievers being the number 1QB is a lot different than being the number 4 QB, with JAG's and on the road. IJS....I respect Jake and always will for what he did, but come on mannnnn.....at least I agreed with you in part but I see Jake is a sore spot for you so I won't challenge the other parts  I referred to earlier that showed up early in his career that could be put into this which ultimately made him into "Shaky Jake" all that said...give the new kid a break, wait and see before you judge.

For those of us who were stuck watching the Commanders' broadcast, I took a peek at one of their forums just to see what they were saying about Howell and couldn't help but notice that they were bagging on their over the top homer announcer just as much as we were. 😂

You KNOW it's bad when the hometown fans are annoyed by the level of homerism. 😂

No.  I think they believed Corral was better than Howell or they would have taken him instead.  I mostly believe they think he was better than willis as well but we will never know for sure since he went before.   I do think the coaching staff/gm can potentially miss on a pick but its impossible to tell one preseason game in.  It's weird how it was a fitterer pick after the draft when everyone loved it and now 1 preseason game in it was a Rhule pick though lol

thats where you are wrong.  Rhule had the contract and the goodwill to do something like this 3 years ago.  Instead the dumb motherfuger thought our roster was good enough to win and..........well you know the rest of the story.  Certain situations can be baked in for a guy to take his lumps but like you say they at least have to play to take said lumps. 

 

In short rhule had golden opportunity with his 7 year deal but like most things he totally fuged it up

it was a fitt pick but rhule is clearly mismanaging the situation.  I mean can anyone really debate that?

our 1s dominated?  You sure you watched the right game?  We gave up like 4 pressures in the first 13 plays.  Our backups had no pass rush

Wentz had to wait until we put in the 2nd and third string to move the ball at all.

Sorry you can shlt on the win all you like, but there was a lot of good stuff today.

    • Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.
    • Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on. 
    • Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
