The coaching staff's preparations for and adjustments with Huntley thrown in were embarrassing and that's about it. Huntley played up more or less to his talent - He's not starter material and he was kept in check by a good defense, and had a couple bad throws picked off. Coaching staff started out super tentative running the ball constantly instead of keeping up a balanced offensive attack, then Minnesota decided to dare them to throw. Will be interesting to see how he performs with a full week of practice with the first team and the game plan centered around him.

So what you are saying is that you know they would have lost anyway but you object to the point spread? 😕

A loss is a loss. Close losses don't get bonus points. Blowout games don't deduct wins.

Unless the defense, which had a lot of their own injury issues, put the ball into the endzone 3 times themselves, this was going to be a loss no matter what.

However, my overall thesis that it's the training staff that has kept us out of the SB moreso than any factor, is definitely being validated. I mean, look at all these hamstring issues.

In general, I think he's got the physical tools to do what Mike requires of QBs in his QB oriented system. I know it's popular to have a tantrum over losing Aaron, but I think his other guy can play. May take him a few weeks to get calibrated, bit I think we'll be ok. It's not over. Maybe if we're lucky he'll be fundamentally sound and thus able to move the chains in classic WCO style.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
