[quote=GusFrerotte;646772]WE will find out soon enough if those guys can be developed.Thomas and Kelly do show some promise, but not sure if they are going to be the real threats that we hoped them to be.[/quote]

I hope we will be supprised. But....it goes back to what I said earlier....I wonder who Shanahan will bring in for the scouting department cause we will only be as good as that team. Our scouting department has sucked for many of years. It was said Thomas was going to be a work in progress. kelly was supposed to be the real deal. I hope Shanahan can get someone to make them better. Mitchell I think is coming along and hope he continues to improve.

ARE needs to go. Moss is servicable for the slot for a few more years but I'd almost prefer to just part ways with all the primadona's and old regime. Moss was the one on the bench laughing and smiling and joking during this fiasco of a game. It pissed me off.

I sold my ticket to a Cowboys fan. I got triple my money back. I'll not be buying any more tickets, gear, etc. I could care less about the SD game. When it's over, they can't fire these bums fast enough.

Some have said that our scouts are fine, but they'd be overruled. Like Cerrato said we had DeSean Jackson ranked as the most NFL ready, but loved the upside of Thomas. To me, not having been there, I'd say that means our scouts liked Jackson, maybe our personnel directors, but maybe not Snyder and Vinny. Who knows though?

ARE is the biggest fiasco of the last decade, behind that of Taylor Jacobs. Moss tries to make things happen and can do damage still if we had an intact O line. JC might bolt IMHO. He didn't look too thrilled after Zorn punted on that 4th down with like 6 minutes or less to go. ANd he looked pissed after the MNF disaster. IF he gets a decent offer I bet he will be very tempted to bolt. A lot of crappy teams need a true decent QB.

Re: Boys v. Skins Gameday Thread (Round 2)
 

JC is a good guy and a tough player, he's worth keeping but not as the starter...

I am from Michigan obviously and follow both the Wolverines and Spartans. One thing I can tell you is that with the exception of Lorenzo White, and a couple others, very few Spartans have really panned out in the NFL since the 80s. Not taking Jackson was moronic.

He might be worth starting status still, but he doesn't have a line, and to be honest a WR corp, not one that is a threat anyway.

I would agree with you but Jason has never been a consistent winner in his career, and WTF was Zorn thinking????? (4-13) Thank you Bruce Allen for letting that idiot go!

True, I think Gus Frerotte has a better winning percentage as a starter than JC does. Don't quote me on that, but I think that is the case.

Lol I would hope not but he may, JC is a good guy and a competitor he just isn't a Franchise QB.. I have been saying this for a long time on this board.

Re: Boys v. Skins Gameday Thread (Round 2)
 

did he also say ," We're gonna take this long trip, and IF we take it, we're gonna go down there to San Diego and try to win"......

So there is a chance they dont take the trip?

I gotta admit, I've never been so excited for the end of a season to watch the team rebuild as I am this season.

Re: Boys v. Skins Gameday Thread (Round 2)

Yep. It's gotten pretty painful. The only thing left is hope for next year with a whole new staff and GM.
