  1. Lol. What are you smoking dude? We are 4-7 for a reason. There is absolutely nothing that should make anyone believe we can win three straight games, let alone five. I think 3-2 over the next five is the best we can reasonably hope for, but I expect we'll go 2-3 down the stretch (wins over Jax and Miami).
  2. Guy is lucky to be alive. Jeez.
  3. D - Kyle Williams O - Hackett
  4. Rob Johnson and Trent Edwards had some decent games too. Not close to being sold on Manuel at this point.
  5. "He has no escape-ability with his feet and he will not make any plays in this aspect of the game in the NFL. Tuel does not feel pressure well and does not throw the ball well into the face of pressure." I don't know. I thought he looked solid in both of these respects yesterday. The one thing they nailed is that his ball does seem to float. I can see him becoming a Kelly Holcolmb level kind of backup QB. Not starter caliber, but certainly worth keeping on the roster. Also, just curious, but how would we be rating Tuel's performance today if the coaches had just taken the ball out of his hands on that goalline series and we had run the ball three times before kicking a FG to go up 13-3? Further, say TJ doesn't cough up the additional 7 and we win the game 16-9. I'm guessing we are talking about Tuel's potential and that he looked better than Thad.
  6. I don't understand all of the "cut Tuel" guys. It was his first NFL start and it happened to be against a 8-0 team with a good defense. He made a couple of terrible mistakes, but he otherwise played well. Showed good pocket presence and the ability to work through his progressions. I can see him being a quality backup in this league with a little more seasoning.
  7. exactly. team isn't going anywhere this season. i'll continue to take these competitive losses if it means better draft position.
  8. I took my 1 year old to an MLB game and he ended up getting run over by some drunk idiot and smashing his head on a concrete wall. I will never take little ones to a professional sporting event again until they are much older.
  9. If a guy truly had a scrub team around him and still put up good/great numbers I think it can be overlooked (see Peyton Manning). I think it's telling though how a guy performs if/when he reaches the biggest stage. Does he underachieve, overachieve or meet expectations when the lights shine brightest? That's why I'll never consider Jim Kelly one of the elite all-time greats. He had a ton of talent around him, but they collectively came up so small in those Super Bowls.
  10. I think it's more, "hey, Thad played a pretty good game compared to what we've seen from Manuel. Why not let him play a few more games to see if we've stumbled upon something special? If he regresses as most assume, then reinsert Manuel and move on from the Thad experiment."
  11. Health. If we have just a normal amount of injuries we are 4-2.
  12. Arizona last season. Won us the game.
  13. Was a hell of a catch on 4th and 15
  14. Nice sequence by the offense there. Lol
  15. Disagree. Mostly been scheme and overpursuit.
  16. Any idiot knows you take the points there. Especially after having been stuffed on three straight plays.
  17. Taking advantage of our aggressiveness. Still pissed we didnt kick the field goal. Changed the entire game.
  18. Should have taken the points. Marrone is a bonehead.
  19. Lol...we have no idea what this guy brings to the table. Let's watch him play a game first before we annoint him better than anybody. Something leads me to believe he's been released by three different teams for a reason.
  20. Too bad he got injured. He was so good in 2011. Probably the second best running back in the league behind AP at that time.
  21. Actually, there was another guy who ran the scout team for many years...his name was Steve Young.
