Was he part of the challenges we had back then, and now we upgraded with Jeff Ireland?

Way too early to throw in the towel on Fields. He needs proper coaching and Nagy is & has been an awful play-caller. Justin simply isn't ready yet. It happens. Steve Young, Aikman & Manning had horrible rookie seasons.

At this level, it takes time to develop a QB.

The same goes for Book.

I don't know if Pace is on the hot seat, however, it should be warm. If the Bears don't figure it out this season, both Ryan and Nagy could be gone.

Yesterday they simply looked like they had no business playing football. Overmatched & overwhelmed.

Romo and Nantz did all they could to keep us engaged but I checked out early.

Robby Anderson and Sam Darnold were both temporarily knocked out of the game against the Failcants.

Darnold head hit the turf as he was tackled. Don't see him returning today.

Look at what MR. RIGHT WAY said a few years back......... but I'm not sold that Lions' QB Matthew Stafford is a winner...

After seven games with the Rams, Stafford ranks in the top five in several categories. He has passed for 19 touchdowns, second behind Tampa Bay’s Tom Brady’s 21. Stafford’s 2,172 yards passing ranks third behind Brady and Las Vegas’ Derek Carr.

Stafford has led the Rams to a 6-1 record heading into Sunday’s road game against the Houston Texans (1-6) at NRG Stadium.

So you're saying we should go after Philip Rivers?

Sam threw 2 more ints (1 pick 6) against the Pats yesterday.

Darnold is currently tied (11) for the league in interceptions.

Even without our coaches, we shouldn't have lost to the Panthers.

They did and all the Could'a Would'a Should'a and What If isn't going to change that L to a W. A gallon of gas "Should't" be what it is either. Pay it or don't drive.

Well... it was before and during preseason. We're just tracking his progress and also being satisfied that the trigger was not pulled for him.
