I'd trade him in the offseason if you can get decent value. He's too old to rely on and is unlikely to stay healthy for a full season going forward. How many 31+ yr old rbs do you remember making the probowl? Spiller is the future. If you can get a second or third for fred, ship him off to a contender. He'd be a great fit for someone like new england.

I had us at 5-11 or 6-10. I thought our linebackers, ends, and oline sucked too much to be any better. I even thought 4-12 was possible after trading evans. having said that, I'm not in the least bit pleased with the way we finished the season. After the 5-2 start, I thought there was no way (minus a fitz injury) that we should finish any worse than 9-7. Gailey is on the hot seat imo and needs to deliver 10 wins next season or he should be fired.

bipolar much?

he gets a minimum of one more year, provided that he fires edwards and replaces him with a real dc. Next year's expectations are 10 wins and no worse than 3-3 in the division. Anything short of those benchmarks and he should be fired.

This. It is why I will never jump ship. Life is suffering.

Get over it folks. This was a clear rebuilding year. There is no way in hell that Gailey is fired unless there is some type of player mutiny or something. I expect this team to win 10 games next year. Anything less and Gailey is on the hot seat and/or fired.

I like how some of these fools cite NE, GB and Indy as an example/template for why an "explosive" offense is the way to go. You do realize that those offenses are(were) so explosive for a certain reason, right? Maybe because they were led by three of the top five quarterbacks in NFL history.

Lol...this dude might have another year or two left in him at best. My guess is that this thing never heals properly and we never see him take another snap. Even if he heals enough to make it back on the field, I wouldn't trade more than a 2nd or 3rd rounder for him.

I've accepted the fact that Fitz will never be awesome - he's not athletic enough or accurate enough to be "elite." But he's smart, ballsy, and if surrounded with decent talent, he can get the job done. Get him a serviceable defense and a legitimate 1(2) wideout and I think he's a playoff quarterback.

I remember him as a basketball player at UofA. He was a big time prospect coming in but his skills were so raw and he never developed. Quit basketball to try his hand at football during his senior year and then I think he was signed by the Pats as an UDFA if I'm not mistaken. I think the hope was that he could turn into a poor man's Antonio Gates. I don't see it happening. Gates was a natural - a great college basketball player - before turning to football. Fendi always struck me as an athletic guy with no "feel" for sports.

Even with all of the injuries we are arguably three plays away from being 8-4 right now: - Stevie's "drop" against Cincy - Fitz's terrible underthrow vs. the giants - Stevie's legitimate drop vs. Jets I know, I know, it goes both ways and we could easily be worse than 5-7. Just saying...we are d@mn close to 8-4. If we can bring in some defensive upgrades and get that unit playing to just an average middle-of-the-road level, there's no reason we shouldn't be a real double digit win playoff contender next season. Edit: Lol...JohnnyGold...didn't see your post...sorry for just repeating what's already been covered.

need another entire draft devoted to the d and need to sign minimum of two impact fa's on that side of the ball.

our d is a friggin joke...sorry for stating the obvious

I've never understood the brady hate. He's a winner, an awesome QB, and by all accounts a good teammate. Deserves every accolade ever bestowed on him, imo. I guess the other reason I don't mind him is that we've never been even remotely close to good enough to compete with the pats during most of his reign. I'd probably hate him if he continually kept us out of the playoffs or super bowl with clutch plays in close games. But mostly, he's just beaten up on wretched bills teams.

Pac-12 is about to get even stronger. I have a friend who is an influential booster at UCLA, and he said that Chris Petersen (boise state) has agreed in principle to take the UCLA job, and that the deal willl be finalized and made public on monday or tuesday. there will be a ton of entertaining football played on the west coast in the next few years.

I'm disappointed that we completely felll apart during that three game stretch, but if we can finish the season strong and finish 9-7 or 8-8, I'll consider it a successful season and step in the right direction. If the team lays down and finishes 5-11 or 6-10, I will harbor serious doubts about gailey's ability to eventually get them to the playoffs.

well, at least they provided 3 hrs of entertainment thhis weak. Tough loss but can't question te effort.

crap!

damn...fitz had stevie wide open

fitz is the man...laying the wood on that poor db

why so serious?

if only we had tebow...lol

pick is coming up right here

depressing loss

our pass rush is laughable
