So Drew Brees gave the Saints every reason to lose as well last Sunday,right? After all he threw two interceptions. Not almost interceptions like you keep saying about Bruce. But actual interceptions.

Even though he drove the team into scoring range at the end just like Bruce did. Evan though N.O’s kicker missed the game winner from point blank range, just like ours did.

But the blame for the Saints loss should go on Brees and not their kicker because of the two picks that he threw, right? The Saints released the wrong guy right?

If you say, no then you’re being a hypocrite.

Damn TJ. This is “best post of the day material”.

Pocket presence????? The guy has no pocket presence. How do you explain the strip-sack fumble that could have ended the game? Shouldn’t he have “felt” the guy coming? Lol!

The bond has the strength of ten bears.
It is easy to be a fan of a winning team. It takes perseverance, willpower and tenacity to get it up ever week for a team that has been in a losing streak and we will turn this around which will make every win that much sweeter.

Its tough staying on top and no team does it. They dont usually have the terrible run we have had but they all spend time in the celler.

7 years of losing bigtime has only made my Raider blood run faster .
The bond between Al, the Oakland Raiders and I is like three chains woven as one.

Excellent point! I could not have said it better. Every fall it is the same thing.

Grads taking chances is both good and bad. He pushes the ball down the field and that netted us some PIs in the last game. He needs to be a bit more careful, though, for sure. We all saw the dropped picks. There’s no denying them. Fact remains, with him at QB, our offense can move the ball. He’s a leader and he involves the WRs. JC plays scared and doesn’t know what to do in the face of pressure.

Bottom Line: Grads is our best option right now.
======================================================

This is only partially true, grads my be the best option now, the coaches said as much. I have no argument against that. However it doesnt matter how careful he is with the football, or how good the decisions he makes are, he doesnt have the accuracy needed to be a quality starter. He will turn the ball over, a quick bit of research will tell you that. He has always had an issue with accuracy in the nfl. You can learn how to make good decisions, you cant learn accuracy, bruce doesnt have it.

Let’s see how he does this Sunday if we score I couldn’t care less about the yardage. I want him to stick the ball in the ENDZONE………..period

That’s what wins football games not yardage and stats, TD’s win games. The rest is for losers. We struggled to beat the Rams and lost a game that was easily winnable. Due to the fact that he missed wide open recievers. Now Janikowski bailed him out with that miss and takes the pressure off Grads in the eyes of the fans. But in the eyes of the coaches he didn’t deliver when he had the chance.
