I think Quinn coached well tonight. The defense is a vast improvement from Whitt running it.

100% agree - hard to do better with our 3 best pass rushers out, 2 starting CBs out, and our LBs playing with their feet in concrete. The Denver running game was no real threat and with no meaningful pressure on Nix, he's good enough to do what he did. We also put up over 400 yards of offense on that D (and had more yards than Denver did), and the team played with intensity throughout. I also liked going for 2 -- why in the world not -- and the playcall was solid (bad throw but McNichol was open).

I actually think we're going to win a few more games this season (Vikes, maybe one of the Eagles games, and Giants) -- won't help with draft position but I just cannot bring myself to hope for them to lose.

Going for 2 was the only logical option; giving Denver the ball back with 3 ins. means losing or a tie at best, and with a losing record it's got to be win or bust. And i don't blame Mariota for that miss, they were in his face virtually from the snap, if he'd lobbed the ball over Bonitto, it likely wouldn't reach McNichols anyway. Good play call, bad execution; they had 6 blockers on the other 4 rushers and let Bonitto run free.

I will always argue, you're not a real fan if you want your team to lose, regardless of the scenario.

Guys are still fighting and playing hard for him. Don’t really understand what some fans want from him given the shitty circumstances of this season.

yea i don't get the fans . seems a lot folks sell there tickets so visiting teams can flood our home ? I guess the Snyder years and name change did so much damage that it will take a long time to get that back .. we got fans already wanting Terry gone and some hating on JD .. I get it but this team really doesn't gave much of a fan base to speak of .. I've been a FAN since 1969 .. i've been through it all, I do appreciate sites like this and we all are true fans on here ! Rock on
