We should’ve just run it back with Wilks, Darnold, and DJ

Question, would we still have traded up for Bryce Young?  If so, nothing changes.

I actually think after what Wilks saw with Rosen in Arizona, he would’ve let Bryce sit a while. I could be wrong, but Wilks had experience with throwing a rookie to the wolves.

The hell with Wilks I'm not even sure if this guy was a upgrade over Rhule.lmao

 

Counting preseason we haven't won a single game since we hired him.

 

Like this dude is a walking L.

You mean Frank Reich, right? Wilks was a huge upgrade over Rhule.

Yeah, sitting the #1 overall pick would have not gone over well.  While I agree with sitting Young, 99% of the fan base would not.

Good point. If Wilks had the luxury of having a better QB in Arizona, he could very well still be coaching that team.

Sam Howell is looking like a pro bowl level QB and he's a glorified Darnold. 

 

Wilks would have us in a good spot right now. But we're here now. Welcome to obscurity, folks.

Wasn’t Howell available when we selected Corral? If so…big fuggin yikes.

I think that shows that something is wrong with our ability to properly evaluate college talent and/or put them in position to succeed in the NFL.

We moved up in the 3rd to get Corrall. Howell wasn't taken into the 4th round by Washington. The deals for Darnold, CJ Henderson were bad. We draft players who make no impact on the field. We need better performance from the GM. This team is going nowhere with Fitterer in charge.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
