Not going to continue to support this slow burn of a disappointment of a golden opportunity handed to this franchise four years ago. We're turning this kid into Andrew Luck 2.0, just with worse support across the roster and organization.

Any team worth a [BLEEP] would have taken this kid by now and turned him into a force to be reckoned with. We're hindering him and hammering him into the ground now. And to think, he has a no trade clause in his contract.

I hope Shad is ready for the monumental blowback from the fans if it isn't a clean sweep. Baalke just has to go. His decisions in the offseason have not helped the team in anyway. BTJ has been good but that's it. The FA pickups have been bad and we still look very weak at Dline. If Doug had gone Parcells and complained 'he should be able to pick the ingredients' then some fans may have given him a pass but the way he's handled himself this season  means he's got to go to.

And your absolutely right. This is what is so frustrating watching Trevor. He clearly has talent and has so many of those qualities you want in a QB but we are constantly expecting him to lift and overcome all the obstacles we put in his way rather than just going out and playing. We've seen what he can do when they have a system that schemes downfield passes open and the D can get stops and turnovers. 

Fans will drag themselves through the next 5 games but we need something after Black Monday to build optimism through the offseason or it could get very bad.

Man. He really sucks.

I give up with Doug. Has he got plans for Christmas and is trying to get fired before then? His press conferences are just getting ridiculous. 

Or are we too stupid to understand again? Or was it one of those secret changes no one could know?
