I have the same amount of influence as you do. I have no idea where he will be playing. If we don't get someone better before the draft, I hope it's here though I'll tell you that much. I'm digging this winning thing and want it to continue. I have ZERO interest is going on some fishing expedition for the next starter and losing games. That's drought thinking. We're now in post drought era, it's about winning now. Fitz was a gun slinger too. Being a gun slinger is fine as long as he can complete some of your passes to your own team. Which int he threw was due to being a "gun slinger"? They all looked like routine passes to me. Throwing an 8 yard out route is gun slinging?

It took EJ 8 games to throw as many picks as Nasty Nate. let that sink in a little...

EJ?

If you say so LOL

How did that work for the Seahawks? Actually I'm mad at KB for interfering.

Technically he made the right decision based on the play. KB was single covered. Throw him the football. Better yet, just call a power dive right in the huddle and run that. If that doesn't work, run it again.

I understand the frustration with Hotrod I really do. But it's taken us 17 years to find a QB better than Flutie which we had to dump so our future guy, rob Johnson could get in and win us all those Lombardi's. I'll gladly flat out dump Hotrod IF and WHEN we find someone better. I don't want to make the same mistake we did in 2004. That team went 9-7 had a lot of mojo rolling into the off season winning 6 out of the last 8 I think it was. Then we decided to dump our QB and go with a 1st round draft pick we just had to get in there. We didn't sniff the playoffs again for 10 years.

I was told by BeginnersMind that we didn't have good enough WRs and TE for a passing QB like Alex. What I want is for us to do what the Seahawks did. Bring back the incumbent starter (Tarvaris Jackson), sign one of the better FAs (Matt Flynn), and draft somebody (Russell Wilson). Then let 'em duke it out in PS. Best man plays, whoever that is. It's time to win!

I disagree. I think he is an excellent QB. Better than anyone we've had since Flutie was runout of town, including Kyle Orton As far as the game Saturday, it was a really nice play by Alex to deflect that pass right back to Marcus. Also, Alex should have told that backup TE to catch the football. If we're not going to vastly improve our WRs and switch to a more passing offense, we might as well juzt keep Hotrod.

Who would be your first choice? If we MUST dump Hotrod, Alex is the guy I want over all other FAs/trades. I want a BETTER QB,not another QB.

We aren't getting hiM then. QB is the most important position in football. Trying to cheap Charlie it is how you end up with guys like Fitz and Tuel Time and Nasty Nate. You get what you pay for. Trade a 1st to KC if that's what it takes. Then we get real QB play while continuing to look. We aren't getting hiM then. QB is the most important position in football.

EJ?

Points is points.

I say give it to them.

Top 7 in s scoring until Lynn benched him for the last game.

Its the bigs man. If you can't run with the big dogs,stay on the porch.

I love this .

It makes some sense. Amen. Enough of this building/long term nonsense. Strike while the iron is hot. Build around McCoy and Benjamin and Hotrod or someone that beats him out. Improve the D. Get a pass rush. Get a legit one two punch backup for McCoy.We're 6th best team in AFC this year. The other 10 are chasing us. This is a retool off season. Not a rebuild IMHO.

EJ? Could have taken Mahomes.

56 yards

56 yards

Nate looks like text book pocket passer franchise QB. He's tall. He drops back well. He gets rid of it fast. Looks great til the football leaves his hand.

I didn't say it was the only reason . Are you saying a squad of Benjamin, Thompson and Drop Zone is as good as Watkins, Woods, and Kupp and has ZERO impact on a QB's effectiveness?

I'm all for playing the best player at every position.

How so?
