Jake Delhomme

dumbass, half the passes thrown in the NFL would be interceptions if the defender was just a hair closer. it's the guys who can make the throw despite that who win the games, and delhomme does that. 'could have been intercepted' is a worthless stat unless you're deciding who to cut on defense.

Most QB's kow better thsan to throw where there are 3 defenders right near their player.

Also I am not a dumbass I am the resident Jake hater.

I'd rather have Delhomme than Garcia. Besides Jake has 18 4th quarter comebacks in his career. How many QBs have done that?

I found myself praying the run game was going to pickup so Duhlomme didnt have to try and throw the ball. horrible decision making with the ball. wish we had a jay cutler.

Realistically we all know Jake is a mid-upper level QB who is very exitable and will occasionally throw a clunker. Luckily he isn't the only player on the team. If he was we might be in serious trouble. There is no way he has the mobility to avoid 11 defenders on his own . .

Also, what are the odds of a team having two season highlight catches in the same game? The one handed touchdown grab and the second interception. Amazing plays by amazing athletes.

fox method is the reason jake has all those 4th quarter comebacks,his to's lead to 10 points.i just hope he can calm it down,he's playing like eli last year,hopefully he will play like money in the later games.

in all fairness,the bucs d lives off of off target passes.they tip any incomplete ball into the air and pick them off

Jay Cutler = Jake x 2

Gunslinger to the extreme.

The first interception Rosario should have came back for instead of falling back. Thats said, it was a hell of a play by Barber.

Second interception was luck.

neither were particularly Jake's fault.

All of his other passes were right on the money.

QFT That interception was pure, unadulterated, unmitigated, luck. It would happen once every one hundred times.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
