Because he just isn’t good enough. You aren’t going anywhere with Carr as your QB. I would have gotten rid of him a long time ago. He’s ok. He’s certainly not bad. But he’s not getting you where you want to go. I would have started Mariotta over him. At least that guy gives you something with his legs.

Every time I bring it up people want to cry but this defense needs to be better. I bet there is friction because of the way Fraizer calls the defense. We had wonderful stats this season…I fully understand that. We also played against a lot of really bad Offenses. It seems like every good QB carves us. It also seems like when we truly need a big stop, we rarely get it. Physical teams push us around and we can’t stop the run. We have elite talent in the backend of this defense. I think we could be an all time defense with the right DC. I bet McDermott feels like the stats don’t tell the tale here and that they are capable of being better. Probably causes friction

I don’t know why I feel like I’m in the minority on this here. It couldn’t be any simpler to me….play a 7 min overtime. Whatever the score it is, it is.

There has never been a time where STs has mattered less. It’s almost been completely phased out. That’s why the game day roster decisions are so frustrating. If you can ONLY play ST…unless you are a kicker/punter or LS, you don’t need to be on the team. STs just means almost nothing at this point. The plays are almost always either meaningless or penalties. Stop dressing guys that only play ST

Objectively I feel like we ran up stats on terrible offenses this year. Good QBs shred us, physical run games shred us and almost every drive or situation that we need a big stop, we don’t get it. We get bailed out because we have the best Safety tandem in football by a mile. Once they lose a step we are going to be in trouble. We are a good defense and nowhere near bad but we could be a great one. The stats showed us to be better then we actually were because we played a lot of inept quarterbacks. This is how I feel objectively. Believe me I’m not blinded to what I’m seeing. I know we are a good defense but I want to win this whole thing. I feel like there is a limit with what we can be with Fraizer unfortunately. I want more then good.

I’m not sure why everyone just assumes Mitch won’t be back. It’s not like he had a bunch of games where he showed teams he should be starting. He was a great feeling to have here as a backup but I think we are highly overstating his value across the league. He’s absolutely not getting a starting job somewhere next year. I don’t know why he wouldn’t want to come back here. If he wants to go somewhere to complete for a starting job, off hand there are probably less then 5 teams where that could even be a thought. Most teams have qb situations where they are either sewn up, or are looking to see what their young guys can do. I think the market for him is smaller then perceived. I expect Mitch back.

That high win pressure rate stuff is a little bit subjective if you ask me. We all probably have seen every snap of this team does anyone really think we are getting to the QB consistently? Does it feel the way it does watching the Rams? Or a team that sends guys? I’m not saying it never happens and I’m not saying we are terrible at it but I don’t feel like we are a top tier pressure team. I know what that stat says but a lot of that stuff is subjective borderline opinion based. I just think there are time where we sit back and hope a team doesn’t make a play, rather then just flat out stop someone. And physical run teams push us around. That happens. Just watch the games. I don’t like that. I liked Schwartz and even Pettines style more then Fraizer. I want my defense to make teams feel uncomfortable. Against bad QBs, we do that. But when a guy figures us out, there doesn’t seem to be a plan B. There’s no change up here once a guy figures out what we want to do. We have excellent players on this defense and I honestly think the scheme is holding us back. That last KC game was probably my breaking point with Fraizer. I want a new voice in there. One with some fire.

Pressure. Blitzing. Coverage. Overall scheme in general. The guy has always just been a soft shell passive aggressive, sit back and give a team things underneath but not make a team feel uncomfortable. We play a soft defense in my opinion. I want a defense that sets a physical tone and forces teams to feel uncomfortable. We are so set on not being beat over the top that we concede a lot. The good QBs that are willing to be patient can really gash us. A physical run game often bullies us. I think our personnel on defense is excellent. I couldn’t stand Frazier with Minnesota and for the most part, I don’t like him here. We certainly could be much worse I fully understand that. But I feel like there is meat left on the bone and I think what we are, is all we can be if Fraizer hangs around. Let’s see a new voice and try to get over that KC hump. Or just give the Defense to McDermott all together and see what we have.

Can we just find a way to get Frazier out? Go get a guy with a few new ideas and see if we can’t be even better on defense? I know the stats showed we were great but that was misleading. We have elite talent on that side of the ball IMO. I think the scheme is actually holding us back. I think a more aggressive DC could turn this group of players into an all time dominant defense. We are going through a lot of house cleaning here with the coaching staff…just go all the way and get Frazier out.

You are never winning anything with Carr as your QB. He’s barely more then just a guy. If I had nothing at QB, I could see giving Carr 40 min total for about 4 years. If the Raiders are dumb enough to pay him then they deserve what they get.

I actually like Dodson. I kind of wish he had gotten a little playing time over the last 2 seasons. I thought he played pretty well in Miami the year he was able to start. Always was hoping to see more of him.

He could potentially walk away now: Take a decade of stress off his life then come back while he’s still young and get a second act in coaching.

To get to number 1 using Rousseau, what picks are we sending? Our first from now through 2030?

Go get a RB with game breaking speed in the draft now to pair with Devin

Maybe Murray for Watson

They should just wear the pads and everything but just play a full contact game with flags. I bet they’d go full bore if there was no tackling. It becomes impossible to even understand when they are blowing plays dead as guys are getting touched. Put flags on them and play a real game.

I’m not here to say I hate the game. But I will say I hate something about it. NFL Football is about as close to being my favorite thing as possible. I watch every second I can because I know how fast the season goes. The pro bowl isn’t great. They are more or less screwing around and it’s football but barely. I get that. However, the best thing about the Pro Bowl (by far) was that it was after the super bowl. It was 1 more chance to see some before the long off-season and it gave you a little comfort knowing you still had 1 tiny thing left to look forward to football wise. I’d even rather it be 2 weeks after the super bowl to really give you that little extension. The off season is so long and now after the final gun of the super bowl there is just a strange sadness knowing it’s all over. Moving the pro bowl before the super bowl was the worst thing they could do for this game. Again, it’s nothing special. It’s not great but please put it back to where it was.

I absolutely love our current uniforms The blue on white and white on blue are as nice as any in the league. The white face masks made something excellent, even better. I’d just end it with all the 1 color combinations. The all white is ok but if you are going to continue the afl throwback, then we have way to many all whites and they look too similar to each other. Go to the afl throwback with the blue top or get rid of all white with the present day. I will say I also love the LATE 90s, puma (Rob Johnson era) uniforms. I love the red helmets and I love those uniforms. Specifically like 98-00 crispness of the colors. If we get a multi helmet rule I’d love to see a basic copy of what the giants do. A 1998, white road uniform with beautiful Flutie/Johnson era red helmet. I do not want a hideous version of our current uniform with a red helmet. I have seen images of that online a lot and I hate it. They are terrible. If that’s the plan, don’t bring the red helmet back. Go full blown 98’ uniform or don’t do it. The AFL throwbacks are also amazing. They are however, unfortunately pretty similar to what we wear regularly. If you are going to continue to do that, I’d much rather see a return of the iconic blue top afl. That’s a different color blue and it’s very clear to see they are different. You can look at them instantly and notice a difference. I’d be ok with both white and blue AFL like in 09 but if you are going to continue the white AFL, Id stop all white current.

God I hope so

Can we Wiki edit the lawsuit to throw in Fraiser being unhappy with McDermott? Maybe we can get him out of here after all

Why would you start this thread if your own answer was no lol? What was the point?

What a strange career path for this guy. Who has ever seen an old WR basically switch to RB? It’s like the total opposite of anything you’d imagine.

I think we need 1 fast DB to enter the food here for Tyreek Hill purposes. I love our secondary. It’s the back bone of the team IMO. I’d just say we need 1 guy that can flat out run and cover back there for specific matchups.

It’s the punter but that doesn’t make it the highest priority. It’s the biggest weakness and it needs to be addressed but it doesn’t mean it has to be the most important thing to do.

Mike Shula. The guy I have wanted this entire time. Give me that 2014/15 Panthers offense with Josh Allen over Cam Newton and we are winning the Super Bowl
