    The WRs were open plenty and were completely missed...


    Maybe they thought it was pointless to try after realizing you need a QB to throw the ball to you?

    Whiz coddling Jake isn't surprising. He knows what he has/doesn't have in Jake... has to be very careful not to rattle him even more.


    Jake isn't stupid. Jake is very aware that he sucks. You can see it in his body language. He doesn't have the demeanor of a leader/good QB.

    I honestly understand Whiz not ripping into Locker since he's currently our starter. But to throw the receivers under the bus is laughable. None of those receivers played more poorly than Locker. Not surprised that some are in support of Jake being coddled after his worst game ever than being held accountable for his play.

    Its not so much that I think that Mett is the guy, its that I am pretty confident saying that Locker isn't.

    Mett could suck for all we know. Id like to find out before next years draft so hopefully we get to see sometime this season.

    You have already hitched your wagon to Locker. You have no choice but to ride the season out.


    Thats the beauty of being objective. You can just call it like you see it. You dont have to be loud one week saying "see", then silent the next week saying "Locker was bad but so was everyone else so its ok"

    I directed this comment at the people (Mostly at another forum) who are convinced Mett is a future HoF QB.

    The thing is they're probably convinced that Mett is the future not because he'll be a pro bowler but because Jake has shown himself to not be the future. If Jake gets hurt or benched at some point this season, Whitehurst might be the next man up but I don't think anyone considers him so future so that leaves Mett. There's also the fact that Mett is better than Jake and all that jazz.

    you had me until that 'mett us better than jake' comment. jake being bad does not make the sixth round rookie is better.

    I think Mettenberger is more accurate than Jake. Whether he can put it all together on the field and become an overall better QB, who knows. But if Jake continues down this path I'd like like to find out what we have in Mett so we'll know whether we need to blow another first round pick on a QB in next year's draft.

    I'm not going to dismiss a guy due to his draft position. I trust what I see and what I see in Mett is better than what I've seen in 4 years of Locker. Do you think Locker has lived up to his 1st round status? Damn near every QB prospect taken this year had a better college career and was more polished than Jake. In a re-draft where do you think he goes? Certainly not in the 1st 3 rounds right?Why are people acting as though outplaying or being better than Jake Locker is a tall order?

    When your QB is stinkin' up the joint all game, it's hard for your receivers to get in a rhythm. Locker was terrible all game except 2 drives. He's a former top 10 pick and has had more than enough experience to prove his worth, if he doesn't perform like a franchise QB this year, it's time to move in a different direction. No more excuses.
