    I like what you say but if we draft a QB anywhere what does that do to Metts confidence?

    my problem with your suggestion is that you can't just blow up a roster and start over. Contracts and money will get in the way of that. Free agents do not want to come to a team that is awful and there is clearly bad player coach relationships. Good coaches do the best with what they have..Arians, Petitte, Marrone, etc. Good franchise draft good teams....Packers, Pats, Ravens. We have neither.

    You miss 7-9? Honestly, being 2-13 sucks, I get that. But are you making the playoffs at 7-9? Nope! so the end result is the same, but wait, it's not actually.

    So we've already established you're not making the playoffs with either record, so the season is over at the end of December. So the question I ask you is, which draft pick would you prefer, #2 or #11? And yes, I understand that good players can be had later, however having a larger pool of players to pick from is always better. It also gives the opportunity to swap that #2 for say, a #5 or #6 and pick up some extra picks. This is important to a team with as many holes as we have. Imagine having extra picks to draft some promising D and OL guys...

    To those saying fire Whiz: I get that too. I haven't like his choices on player personnel or play calling. WTF is Leon Washington on this team, let alone playing a bunch of snaps. Get the rookie some looks, it'll only help going forward. That said, what did you expect? He implemented a new system and didn't have the guys for it. He's in the best shape possible, high pick that he can use to rebuild his roster. If it's the same thing next year, then I'll be calling for his head.

    Depends on when we draft the QB and for what purpose. If we draft a guy late to be a back-up then I don't see it being a problem. If we draft a guy in the first three rounds or so as competition then I could see it being a problem.

    Personally, I think a lot of what caused Hoyer's eventual downfall was the Manziel hype breathing down his neck, so I do think your concern is a valid one.



    As for calling for Whiz's job, I agree in the sense that I can almost guarantee he'll never lead us to a SB victory, so might as well get it over with. But, more realistically, he might as well waste another year of our lives.

    yeah, I would go the other way on the QB. If the decision is made to stick with Mett, which I'm okay with I guess, Then I would draft a QB at all. CBJ is a viable back up with experience. We need players almost everywhere so I would draft as many oline, dline, LB and secondary as I could. Plus there are many back up qbs in FA.

    Yup. Too many holes, high picks provide a great opportunity to repair the roster. Trade back and pick up some extra picks, or second will be like a late first, and stock up on D and OL. Plus we've got some cap space don't we, can pick up some guys in FA as well.

    Again: WHAT IS THIS FRIGGIN "SYSTEM" WHIZ HAS?? Apparently it involves lots of lousy clock management, scrub play time, questionable challenge skills and running back confusion. Can someone tell me how his is supposed to work? Please...explain like I'm five.

    Also, enough with the Mariota talk. He hasn't even announced eligibility yet. He's a junior playing against lame defenses in a lame athletic division.

    I have to keep reminding myself that Mett is about a year removed from ACL surgery. Granted he is not a running back or anything but still...the fact he has been ready to play for a while now is impressive. Guess we will find out.
