Agreed.
Turpin is the fastest man in the NFL, the best and most dangerous return guy in the NFL, and not a bad WR when used in space correctly. There is nothing “second rate” about him. Dowdell is probably a second tier guy but pushing higher, Rush is bottom tier, and so is Tolbert.
Planning to fail for an imaginary scenario...is bad for "the team".
The team has talent and we have a good head coach. The problem is the owner/GM refuses to supplement the roster through free agency and pay for top notch assistant coaches. The Eagles, Detroit, and San Francisco make those sacrifices.
When I say second rate I mean probably not an ideal starter on most teams. I agree that Turpin is a weapon but before this season he was barely playing outside of returns. Agreed about Dowdle he’s a good rotation back imo
Normally I'd be seething over these meaningless wins but the bolded is why I decided not to torture myself over it -- it doesn't matter. This team is screwed for the next half-decade at the very least and they're going to waste the pick on a plug anyway, this franchise with Jerry and his inbred family in charge is a lost cause and not worth my anger.
What a change at qb can do for your teams mentallity.
We really didn't keep Houston close. They were never in danger.
id guess they are looking at Kellen Moore.I believe the remaining games will determine the fate of the team that remains. If the results fail to impress this FO happily, it seems likely that the organization will undergo change. Of course, the extent of it depends upon whatever the FO deems necessary. Anything can happen, of course. The organization will still be run by the same folks that have led this team into its current state. Be mindful of that, for reality to remain intact.
