We take a lot more sacks in that TB game vs scrambling and getting rid of it so I'm not in agreeance with you and JJ went out super early. Allowed the D to attack the OL more vs having to double/cover JJ.

WAY too early for this post. Lets see how the next 2 games roll out.

I think KOC is a major issue. That is why I pray Teasley sees this and doesn't trade a player that he shouldn't.

KOC has had 9 QBs and a 46-25 record. Yeah no....

Well maybe it is time for him to get it right? I have backed KOC, but this Kyler shit may be it for me with him. Get the damn QB right. Got damn.

The Murray experiment gave us a 2 time probowler at almost ZERO cost. No brainer.

That 2 time probowler played 11 plays game 1 and in his 2nd game he lost the best WR in the NFL in the 1st quarter after already making 2 passes and 40+ yards with him. That allowed the Defense to attack the line more and leave everyone else in single coverage. Nobody on our roster replaces JJ. JA is good but he doesn't get anywhere the attention JJ does.

You're massively over reacting. JJ is back next week and I'll reserve some judgement for then and after that Im still giving him the next 2 game after before I'll start saying "Bust".

I'm saving this thread so in 2 weeks I can come back and list all the "The World is Ending" posters. Sorry.. You guys are acting more ridiculous than the kids on Reddit. And you're all old codgers in here (me included @ 51!)

I hope you are right. I was all in on Murray with all the hype. People got me excited and even bet on them. Disappointed right now is all. Not a big deal. Sucks to be wrong, but I think JJM will still have a good career.

My issue with Murray running is that he can't seem to protect himself. He slid the same exact way yesterday than he did on the play that got him a concussion.

My issueS with Murray are much more than that. But happy feet are never a good sign in a QB.

I agree, I was just stating the running connection of it.

What would his record be if he didn't have Flores on the coaching staff? Would it be above .500? I know that's a slightly hot take, but it's not that hot of a take.

KOC needs to thank his lucky stars that Flores sued the owners of the NFL. Not sure even the lawsuit can keep him here after the display he is showing this year.

Agreed and not particularly close. I would have put JJM second. I have no clue what the staff and GM see in Murray. Maybe if they retool the offense to his skill set he’ll be able to do something, but he’s definitely not a fit for what they put out there yesterday. To me, it looks like a case of believing they can pull off a Darnold 2.0, but Murray is a far different QB.

I think Brosmer is the only QB on the roster next year. A guy who is borderline to even be in the league. Insane.

They're trying to pull off Darnold, but so far we're getting McNabb 💀
