    Because nothing says you are confident in your QB then running out and trading for another starter....Lol. Jrob and Vrabel could give two craps about him. They want to win a super bowl and they know damn well they can’t do it with Mariota alone. They didn’t hand select him, so it’s do or die. He better toss more than 11-13 TD’s this year.......

    That actually doesn’t make any sense. But seeing that it’s you, that doesn’t surprise me.

    Marcus is mediocrity personified. The only argument to be made is sub mediocre. You certainly cant argue good, let alone great.

    The front office clearly agrees, or he would have been renewed already.

    I could argue both. And he’ll prove it.

    To claim a winning QB, on this **** team is mediocre is just unfounded and he’s done a lot multiple times to push our team to victory.

    Last season was a dumpster fire and we were a game from playoffs boded we’ll that Mariota the edge that makes us competitive.

    The team around him hasn't been good? This same team had a winning record despite Marcus having arguably his worst year as a starter, went 2-1 with Blaine Gabbert as a starter, had a top 10 defensive ranking in most statistical categories, and our most successful offensive production was at the end of the season when the team handed the reigns to Derrick Henry.

    It's not a crap team. The team is good. The team is quite possibly damn good. It's held back by Marcus not being able to be healthy and when he's on the field, he fails to provide consistent production. There's a reason the team turned to Henry and the OL at the end of the year and not Marcus. Because that worked and Marcus didn't.

    He’s had a top 5 TE during his career here, two first round OT and a high priced free agent C, a first round WR, a high pick at running back and a free agent running back.

    He’s certainly had people around him.

    Yep, been saying it. He had Walker, a healthy Conk, Matthews, and others 2 years ago and tossed a lame 13 TD’s....They have surrounded him fine. The top isn’t sold on him by any means, nor did they select him. You don’t run out and get a starting caliber QB when you are sold on your QB, unless they are at the end of their career. They know damn well Marcus will likely get injured and or not get us over the hump.

    I guess if you word it the way you did you can push anything.

    When he's had a top 3 TE he had no WR's. Davis wasn't here and Matthews was our #1.

    Conklin didn't play last season, and our O-line sucked. So to just say because we drafted people doesn't mean they actually performed at an efficient level.

    When Corey Davis has not been a rookie he's had to deal with all Mariota has. Poor o-line play, no supporting cast, pressure as one of the few offensive weapons.

    When Derrick Henry got hot (I should call out the posters who wanted to trade him mid season, remember???????????????????????????????????) Mariota was playing at a high level winning us games.



    To say that Mariota has been loaded up while he's been here is disingenuous. When Mariota got here we were the 2nd worst team in football. Don't forget that.
