Now if he's injured and needs to get healthy, have a seat. Dalton is more than capable vs Carolina.

We all just want to win.

Yes. We all just want to win. Probably no more than does the coaches and players.

This is the same type of injury that Tony Romo played with a few years ago and other players have, as well. In other words, we really can't blame the injury itself on Winston's performance. The padding, maybe, but not the actual injury.

Ok AG
that's cool to see the actual place of damage in the picture, but can we really say that it can't be blamed on that ?
Certain people have different tolerances and thresholds when it comes to pain I'm pretty sure..

I googled that fracture and it's saying it's a 4-6 week healing process with rest.

I don't think it's Jameis' main issue right now but it certainly cannot help the matter any imo.
The padding added I could also see that contributing too and being valid.

In between the guys critiquing his film and his drs, they just need to get this straight and quickly if you ask me so there's no more excuses to possibly lean on.

Get healthy and bring the goods or have a seat, or have a seat until ready like other members here have mentioned.

There's a few statistics I'm starting to see with pocket awareness/presence not being a strong suit of his at the moment.

Again, many things are having to be factored in..

Everyone's rightfully losing patience.

I’ve been a Winston supporter and admire the hell out of his toughness, leadership, and attitude but I hope DA doesn’t wait until it’s too late to make a switch if it comes to that. I think Dalton could have a good year with us .

They did get their timing right on the last pass and Olave fumbled the ball hitting the ground. This was lack of playing together in preseason. Game speed and practice speed are 2 completely different speeds. I just don't think we need to throw this 6 times a game.
