Might as well start rebuilding now..............

This is my first post, I have been checking the forum for awhile so I know that I will probably get blasted but......

Look at next years schedule, besides our own division, we play the NFC east and AFC east. This could be tough. With current coaching staff and QB, this will be really tough. I feel save in saying that if Fox doesn't have success next season, he will be out. I say get it over with now, deal with the growing pains, get them over with and look to the future. By no means am I trying to bash Fox, I believe he is one of the better coaches in the league, but his time is running out. We should go ahead without him and start rebuilding now. Let Delhomme go and please let Ken Lucas go regardless what else happens. Try and keep Peppers, if it is feasible, and definitely keep Gross. Bring in a FA QB and let him compete with Matt Moore for the job. Most of the core players are pretty good and quite possibly could excel with some fresh ideas.

forget the 12-4 record .look at the eagles,steelers, chargers ,baltimore, tennesse and be realistic . we look like crap after watching the other play off games. our record doesn't reflect the truth of the matter. a lot of these wins we pulled out of our ass thanks to smith and casey. this team wasn't even close to superbowl material. get rid of jake and fox . nothing is going to change unless we get a real qb and a coach who knows when to take out someone who is never going to take this team to its full potential. he is the weak link. get a qb who can throw with accuracy and run if he has to. this guy couldn't get drafted out of college. nobody wanted him.....

12-4 is inflated. This season we played the NFC North who collectively finished 25-39 and the AFC West who collectively finished 23-41. Not exactly the best of the best. Only division worse than those was the NFC west.

all we need is a defense..

do you guys think for a second that if we had the 03 defense the turnovers would have not mattered> I do.

Our defense CAN NOT STOP TEAMS FROM SCORING.

If you can force a 3 and out then we can turn the ball over all we want(not really but you get the point)

WE NEED A DEFENSE

    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
    • Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.
