    I get the part that this is a team sport. But we don't pay kickers and others $50M not to goof. And they goofed on ONE play, not 10 or so. No QB is going to be perfect, but that display yesterday was downright pathetic.

    glad we dont pay him $50M (yet anyways)

    I wont argue much on this one, enough went right as went wrong, and we were in position to win it, but we didnt. But again thats on multiple guys, not just the QB

    If you go to a game, pretend like youre there. I dont expect the seats to fill until we win more. That I agree with.

    I was at the Browns game watching the stadium start to pile out in the 4th quarter so they could save 30 minutes worth of traffic.

    We have a loyal core. TJ, Laserjock, GoT, and Titanium to name a few that Ive met.

    But we do have a weak fanbase. We were at home, fighting to break that losing streak, and fans were walking out.

    Ive always been the one who said "win and fans will show up." But when you see fans walking out, not caring about the last 6-8 minutes of the game, it makes me wonder why the hell even bother showing up in the first place.

    A large portion of the fans at that game were pathetic. Idk if thats a normal thing or not but I have no problem with those type of fans being called out.

    You keep posting $50M....MM didn't sign for that. Just so you know he signed for a little over $24 m...all guaranteed.

    Noted. I never looked it up. Just throwing big numbers out there for arguments sake. But in the old days, $50M would be about $24 guaranteed. That was about what VY got.

    Young, the No. 3 overall pick out of Texas, agreed to a
    five-year deal, with an option for a sixth, with $25.7 million
    guaranteed
    and an overall value that could reach $58 million with
    option and roster bonuses and salary.

    Don't mistake my feelings Cody, overall I am content with the season. October 24 and we have already matched last years win total. Double that and we have more wins than the last two years combined. I'd say that is a pretty good improvement.

    Sure I want more, but hey at least we are doing better.

    we're only better because of Murrays efforts, which is fine, little disappointed in Mariota TBH, hes still having the same problems giving up the ball

    but we are better, so Im pushing on, clinging to the good

    no sense in being bitter, my actions cant change things, and I do see these coaches adjusting week to week, which like I said before is shocking to me since I thought we all knew exactly what we had with these coaches, turns out theyre a little better than we want to admit

    Fear is creeping into their minds and its hard to blame them.

    He converted two 3rd and 15+ at the game. Hes streaky but has a chance to be what we hope he can be.

    He also has a chance to become an average QB. He still gets all od next year before we know what we truly have


    That fumble though....... :wall:
