You can blame Geno all you want but this defense is absolute trash. We aren't going anywhere with any QB unless Pete fixes the tackling and block shedding on this horrific defense.

News flash: This IS NOT a playoff team and we shoud not be in the playoffs(along with many others).

I just want the draft to get here like NOW.

Didn't blame him, just my opinion that we might be further away than we think.

It doesn't matter if we are a playoff team but you cannot lose to a bad rams team with atleast a chance to make the playoffs

Russell had a much better defense and team to work with before we could no longer afford to pay for other areas. I think we can win a superbowl with Geno if we field a similar defense to what Russell Wilson had. Geno does well when given enough time. We have 2 promising rookies on the O-line that I think will do much better next year. However, this defense has been absolute garbage all year when it comes to block shedding and tackling. Pete needs to fix the defense first and give Geno another 1 or 2 years.

You also can't throw 3 picks in a high pressure game
If we fielded a better defense and run game then Geno wouldn't be pressured to force plays. His O-line is playing pretty bad as well. I don't think Geno is the best QB but I think he is above average and good enough to have a shot at winning the superbowl. He is probably in the Kirk Cousin type QB.

Do you think it can be fixed in 2-3 years? Even if so, we have a 35 year old Geno

Geno's O-line is giving him absolutely nothing and the run game is trash. Geno is trying to win.
He's been holding onto the ball for a long time... He's pulling a Russ right now, sometimes you just have to live to play another down. He's partially responsible for this.

Look at the amount of time to throw that Baker is getting compared to Geno. Look at the run game as well.

Im saying give Geno a year or two to do something while we fix the rest of the team. I am not opposed to getting a promising QB to develop and replace him if he can't get it done in 2 - 3 years.

How are we possibly blaming the defense in this game, they're keeping us in it with gifted interceptions the QB is throwing?? I don't understand
