Wow, did Bagent piss in your cereal? imDo he showed he is at least a competent backup and perhaps could be developed with the right coach/coordinator. Do I think he's our franchise guy? Of course not, but he showed confidence and moxy for how he came into the league.

I know it, that's why this offseason is going to be very interesting.

Probably rain in Tampa. And yes, ifs and buts....

??

I would like that.

I agree that Poles now needs to keep his foot on the gas. Right now I'm leaning to trading the pick, stick with Fields and be set for several drafts to come. But only after they've checked out all the QB candidates and concluded there's not one that is a must have. And yep, I guess right now I want my cake and eat it too. LOL

And I am praying that Flus never forgets those FUBARS and corrects it. And Poles idea of "consistency" might not be something to desire with Flus.

So I should grab some of these bonds to "support the team"? LOL

He probably mumbles something about we've turned it around, we won the last game, now we're 1 and 4. LOL

Got it.

Washington didn't take him. He's now on to the Chargers for an interview.

Agree 100%. And I thought those questions about Stroud were useless. Hindsight is something no one has. Poles, and Warren, kept coming back to stability and the plan. I am trusting him on this. Of course, they made it clear next year needs to show much more, so I see that as Flus has got to coach or hit the road.

Spot on. Sad, but ver accurate analysis.

imDo, Flus was the benefactor of a healthy D roster and of Poles getting Sweat when he did. I am NOT happy with Flus' record in the division, and his record with fouth quarter leads, for those reasons alone he should be released. The record and eye test say he's never leading us to the Super Bowl he is just not a good game time coach.

Stop it, please. It's been 3 years and Fields is not going to "ball out." He doesn't see the field, can't make quick reads or throws. He's an athlete plugged in to QB position. Maybe keep him this year, but for God's sake quit the ifs and buts on Fields and draft a QB for the future. And yes, I still want Poles to trade that first pick for a franchise-changing haul as well.

As do I. Poles is going to get this right.

I'm still trending on trade that no. 1 overall for a boat load of picks now and in the future. Hey, we could still get a QB at 9.

Nah, how can you jinx a team that hasn't beat the Pucker since forever? Today is the day we take it to 'em!

Didn't hear that, but not surprised.

Agreed. Williams is a prima donna and I want us to get a king's ransom for the no. 1. There are other QBs in this draft that can sit behind Fields while Poles builds a balanced, deep team.

I think we lost that game.

Agreed. He's a good coach, but not elite.

I may vomit 'cause I want the Panthers to lose.

Saw that too. And I agree with you that Fields is a good runner, but teams have figured out he does not read Ds and he holds the ball too long. If, as Sanchez said, we can't have him and a rookie QB too, then I guess Fields has to go. I feel that Fields wouldn't be such a distraction.

I get your point Alaska, but do you think Justin will ever take us to the Super Bowl? I don't and he hasn't shown the HE has IT to beat teams. Hell, he was spotted a ten point lead yesterday and did nothing in the second half to convince me he's a winner. Talented, yes he has talent. QB talent? Nope. I think the smartest thing for us is to keep Fields, trade the No. 1 pick for more picks (another no. 1 for next year) and then draft a QB latter in the draft. And Harbaugh is not going to be an option here because Warren was his enemy when he ran the Big Ten.
