Hurney and Fox still "have confidence in Jake."


Carl Spackler

Recommended Posts

"This move doesn't change anything about his future," said Hurney. "We feel the same about Jake as we did yesterday before we put him on I.R. We've made it clear we have confidence in Jake."

Hope to your ass fired along with Fox during the offseason

"You can go to a couple of games I threw the ball better than I did in many years," he said. "All in all, offensively, in my opinion, we didn't carry our end of the bargain, so to speak, especially the passing game."

Yes, only a couple games you threw well. The rest were poo and you cost us games. It may involved "we" some of the time, but it was mostly all just "you".

As for his 55.5 completion percentage, which is 4.2 percent below the career average he had coming into the season, Delhomme said:

"I think a lot of factors played into that, but ultimately when you throw the football, you're the last one who has it in your hands, so you've got to put the blame on the quarterback."

You're the one making the decision of where to throw it there genious.

I think this is just Fox and Hurney fluff. There will be riots if Jake is the starter again, and probably riots on the team. They can't be that stupid they really can't. Just because they have confidence in him doesn't mean he's still the unquestioned starter. They say they have confidence in any player on the team. So that's how I'm going to interpret it. There's just no way they can be that blind to see how much better the offense has been with Moore in there.

This is Fox and Hurney were talking about here...

Wow. No way you attract top FA talent (at WR on any other position) with Jake at the helm. You better draft them and hope they don't hold out. In fact if I were Beeson, Peppers, Williams, etc I would demand a trade to get out of this situation.

    • I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔
    • I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.
    • I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
