I guess it was meant to be Henne and Blackmon connection.


Blackmon and the other Receiver did everything. Henne was bad, even though his stats looked good. Over half of Henne's yards came from 2 passes that were only about 10-20 yards, the receivers finally made some plays and didn't drop every other pass. Henne is still the choke master. He showed his true self towards the end, when it mattered, by not doing jack shit in the 4th quarter or OT.

Would you still take Gabbert over Henne?

Easy. We've all seen what Henne can do. He isn't good. There's a reason why Gabbert beat him out during training camp. There's still time for Gabbert. He needs the rest of this year and 1 more year in my opinion. He has definitely improved from last season, all while learning a new Offense all over again. There's no reasons why he can't, and shouldn't improve in year 3. If he doesn't continue to show improvements, then you try and look else where.

all while having his Receivers lead the league in drops.

The QB position isn't the sole reason this team is struggling. A lack of play makers period, is the reason (and some dumb ass penalties/mistakes at costly times). We don't have any real play makers on this team. Certainly not on Defense. Daryl Smith would probably be the closest, but he hasn't played all year and it's showed. We have some very good players, but the good teams always have that 1 or 2 guys that push them over the edge. We lack those guys.

isnt that why they drafted blackmon, to be that playmaker?

all in all imo the offense would be fine if blackmon played like he did yesterday for the first 9 weeks of the year and mjd didnt act like a sour little bitch
they have the talent, underrated WR core but then u mention drops so how underrated are they, but i think they asre solid with a solid Te, 2 solid rbs to lean on....

fix the line add some playmakers on the defensive side of the ball u got yourself possibly a wildcard contender honestly.

This team is better then the 1-9 record shows.

Shorts is showing that he could turn out to be a play maker, as could Blackmon. Shorts is in his 2nd year and Blackmon a rookie. Both are still young. Shorts looked completely lost last year, after coming from a Div III Mount Union team. He looks like a completely different player this year. Rookie WRs usually struggle and Blackmon has looked worlds ahead of Shorts last year, as he should. I wasn't expecting a whole lot out of Blackmon this first year. Now that it's past the half way point, maybe the game is starting to slow down for him now. We still need a burner at WR. Somebody who can fly and stretch the field deep. Some legit 4.3 speed.

Lewis is solid at TE, could be the best blocking TE in the league, average pass catcher. He's a mismatch due to his size, but he has stone hands at times.

The OL was really banged up for the first 1/3 of the season. They had a lot of injuries and were moving guys around daily. The 5 guys have been set now for a decent stretch. They have improved. We still need some depth though.

Defense is really where we lack play makers. I think drafting Jarvis Jones would be the best move this team could make right now. We need a play maker at that position. Daryl Smith is also a FA after this season and he could very well go to a different team. Need somebody to replace him at SLB if he leaves and we need a WLB period. Session may never play again due to concussions. Poz is good at MLB.

Derek Cox is easily our best CB. Too many injuries have nagged on him though. Ross gets beat daily. Mathis is 32, lost a step and came off ACL surgery. He's been dealing with a hamstring as of late and hasn't played. Hate to say it, because he's one of my favorite players, but his time may be up. Middleton is a solid back up who can play any of the CB spots when needed and a great STer, Harris has been alright his rookie year so far. We should go after a CB at the top of the 2nd round. Should still be some pretty good ones left up there.
