Gettleman is the Honeybadger of GM's

Recommended Posts

We became a better football team over the last three days.

How do you know this? He's been GM for just a little bit, has never been GM at an old age, and most importantly the team has yet to play a snap and rookies have had no time to show anything. How do you come to this conclussion and that it is some how better than what any other teams have done?

People need to start accepting this might not work out, these moves might not make us better. It could get worse. Everyone said it would get better after Fox left too,well it hasn't been as of yet...these people over reacted. Why can't people on the huddle wait and see before celebrating?

I don't see how adding kwann and star don't make the team better. If you can't accept that then you are a straight up hater.

You're missing the point, you haven't seen them play yet. You don't know if they will work out and won't know if Gettle is a good GM until years from now. All teams have some good picks that will most likley help their team at the holes they had. They are no different than us, not that we absolutley know anyway. I just don't understand whyt he huddle over reacts so much.

You know how the huddle goes hot to cold all the time? People flipping out, then happy all of a sudden? Well, it's due to over reacting like this.

Forgive me years of losing have made me cynical.

    • 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.
