It's just baffling that the Gnats were firing on all cylinders against us and look like dogshit against everyone else. It happens, I guess. As bad as the Haguars are they've had two games where they kept the opponent out of the end zone, one of them being the Viqueens.
Ironic comparing Goff and Stafford right now. At the time of the trade it was assumed the Lions were giving but but now Goff is the QB on the best team in Football. I really hope that the Lions make the SB which will make the M's never making the WS look even worse. That would leave them at the bottom of the outhouse along with the Browns and Clippers.Donn Beach wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2024 4:53 pmSure, if they had a better QB they could have had more wins. But isn't it also true that a better offensive line would have generated more wins? How much of it is entirely on Geno and how much is the synergy of the entire team? What just happened, the team in general played well, particularly the offensive line and Geno had zero turnovers.Michael K. wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2024 4:10 pmWhen he cost us though, it was big. That Rams loss is looming very large right now. As well as having no clue how to play football when the Giants came to town.
2 picks in the loss to the Niners, which looks far less excusable now than it used to, and 3 picks in an OT loss to the Rams? You can't turn it over five times as a QB in any two games, but two games in Division? We could have put this division away with better QB play. Imagine being undefeated in the Division right now, owning a 2 or 3 game lead on the Rams, and having 10 or 11 Wins?
For me it's the cost involved, and the risk. Is finding another QB the primary issue to deal with now? Whats it going to cost and what are the odds of it working? Look at the 49ers, they have purdy as a gift from God, after wasting how much drafting that stiff? And how about the Broncos, wasn't that the thinking that drove them to trade for RW? Geno is a top third QB isn't he? What are you willing to gamble trying to improve on that?
They've won four in a row off the Bye and are in first in the Division. I'd say it's hard to argue that Geno is the man on this team right now. Not sure he will be next year, or if they will be willing to pay what someone is willing to pay him.
And that's the conundrum... trying to get all the tangibles in one guy. Nearly impossible. We've all seen it... the guy who can throw bombs but can't avoid the turnovers. The guy who can scramble but can't throw. The guy with mad skills but can't read a defense. The guy who makes things happen all on his own, and the 'system' guy who needs all the pieces around him.Pharmabro wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2024 3:58 amBased on the accuracy and the fact he is pretty fast when he runs I would rank him around 10th best QB in football.
I think he unfortunately has a large degree of anti-clutch. Kinda, the reverse Mahomes gene. If you could combine the physical body of Gino with the pocket sense of Russ you would have a top 5 QB.
