This team is a disaster right now. Im finding something else to do next Sunday.

Also, there is a lot of Rex revision history going on here. Bowles has sucked this year, but I would still take him over Rex (not saying much).

A good idea would be to draft a RB.....like every other team.

There was that one play that he was trying to bust outside, and had at least ten yards but couldnt beat the one edge setter.

A good idea would be to draft a RB.....like every other team. Just seems to be the philosophy of this team, regardless of who the GM is: Thomas Jones, Ladainian Tomlinson, Chris Johnson, Matt Forte. We just keep bringing in these formerly great playesr who are past their prime and hope they find the fountain of youth. RB is a young man's position. I am pretty sure we are the only team in the NFL that has not drafted a RB in the last 5 drafts (not counting Tommy Bohanon who is a fullback). With the depth in this year's draft, we have to dip into that pool. Also, signing Forte likely cost us a comp pick for losing Ivory. Never liked the move at the time -- still don't. Not many effective 30+ year old RBs in this league.

There was that one play that he was trying to bust outside, and had at least ten yards but couldnt beat the one edge setter. When you watch his tape from Chicago last year you could see how slow he was. His stats backed that up with his long runs and average per carry. The koolaid drinkers loved the signing and even Chicago didn't want him back for the meager salary we inked him to. That's all on Mac.

The worst part of Bowles to me is the lack of in game adjustments. It's like we have a game plan and regardless of how the game is going he sticks to that plan. The great ones adjust on the fly and he has proven to be unable to do that. The defense has shown no fire or passion all season, similar to his boring and bland personality. We can stop the run but we cannot stop the pass for the life of us. We have way too much talent on defense to be so average on that side of the ball. Also how do you not pull Fitz last week with 6 interceptions. Punting on fourth and 2 today, and the drive before that he also should have went for it when it was fourth and inches. Bowles will be a goner if he sticks with Fitz past the bye week. Fitz is a fucking bum and if he can't see that I have no faith in him as the head coach of my team. If Maccagnan has half a brain this offseason he will trade up to the number 1 pick (I dont give a fuck what it costs) and take the franchise qb we have been lacking for 50 years. there isn't a real qb on this roster that we can build around. Hackenburg screams bust to me, Fitz and geno both suck horse dick. Petty is probably the best qb on this roster and he is nothing more than a below average backup at best.

A GM who can't figure out his team's Quarterback situation, and a coach who can't coach our Defense.
Bring on Hackenberg.
