Amazing achievement considering neither WR played all 17 games ....... and considering the lack of quarterback accuracy, consistency and drive.

whats the difference between Drayton and Bisaccia, Besides the ethnic background? talent, Nixon, obviously it's more then just that, but a few personal additions really stood out.
Sure Nixon helped the return game. Under Drayton watch the 49ers found a way to block FGs and for the entire length of the season Draytons stupid ass couldn’t figure out how to fix his operation. Punt protection was also a disaster. These are relatively simple operations and he was a clueless bum.Yoop wrote: ↑08 Feb 2023 20:30whats the difference between Drayton and Bisaccia, Besides the ethnic background? talent, Nixon, obviously it's more then just that, but a few personal additions really stood out.
To be fair, we had plenty of blocked punts, blocked FGs and fumbled returns this year.lupedafiasco wrote: ↑08 Feb 2023 21:18Sure Nixon helped the return game.

I'm saying if Love isn't good right out the gate, you know there will be a significant portion of the fanbase, the same ones who held Favre's departure against Rodgers, clamoring for Heinicke and/or calling for heads to roll. Love may take some time to get into a groove. If someone like Heinicke is there waiting in the wings, it could complicate things and he may not get that time.BF004 wrote: ↑10 Feb 2023 07:06I think he’s exactly the level of quality you’d want.
More than good enough to win you a few games over a stretch. And zero threat to a guy like Jordan.
Who are we even referencing that he overtook?
Dwayne Haskins or Carson Wentz? Both?
If Jordan Love isn’t better than either of those guys, we have much much bigger problems.
I don't hate any of them. A time comes when it's time to move on from everyone. As much as I am of the opinion that it's time to move on from Rodgers, I'm very appreciative of all of the moments and memories he provided.
If Love can't be great, or at least better then Rodgers was last year we'll know why Lafleur didn't sit Rodgers with his thumb, and if Love stumbles and bumbles, then we probably should have kept Rodgers and traded Love.APB wrote: ↑10 Feb 2023 10:05I'm saying if Love isn't good right out the gate, you know there will be a significant portion of the fanbase, the same ones who held Favre's departure against Rodgers, clamoring for Heinicke and/or calling for heads to roll.

And it was embarrassing the way some fans treated Rodgers in 2008. Favre was the one who instigated his departure. Had he not tearfully "retired" he would have been our starter in 2008 - unless of course if Rodgers beat him out in TC. I wonder if Brett could see the improvement in Rodgers and wanted no part in being his understudy and that was the real reason for that crazy offseason? Is Aaron feeling the same about Love? I will say from all reports Rodgers never treated Love like Brett did towards Aaron the first coupe of years. IMO this says a lot about the character of Rodgers and why I hold him in high esteem even if he is a little eccentric.APB wrote: ↑10 Feb 2023 10:05I'm saying if Love isn't good right out the gate, you know there will be a significant portion of the fanbase, the same ones who held Favre's departure against Rodgers, clamoring for Heinicke and/or calling for heads to roll.

We don't need another HOF QB to be successful. A better than average QB can get the job done. The question is is Love average or better? Only the staff and his teammates have an idea. We will all find out in a few weeks if Rodgers is traded or not. If AR returns Love isn't ready yet and/or may never be.Yoop wrote: ↑10 Feb 2023 23:39If Love can't be great, or at least better then Rodgers was last year we'll know why Lafleur didn't sit Rodgers with his thumb, and if Love stumbles and bumbles, then we probably should have kept Rodgers and traded Love.APB wrote: ↑10 Feb 2023 10:05I'm saying if Love isn't good right out the gate, you know there will be a significant portion of the fanbase, the same ones who held Favre's departure against Rodgers, clamoring for Heinicke and/or calling for heads to roll.

there are a portion of fans who still think Rodgers is the best QB for 2023, just like there was a portion of fans that thought Favre was the best choice in 08, and he was, my main concern is winning next season, just as it was in 08.
odds that LOve is anything close to a HOF QB got to be huge, we struck gold with Rodgers, only us and the niners ever had 2 first ballot HOFamers back to back, I wont hold my breath for a triple repeat.
I actually think Heinicke would be a decent choice for a back-up QB. Experience, some moxie, can come in and get you out of a game, if needed. I would not pay him a "compete for starter" contract, but if it's a cheap deal for true back-up, we could do a lot worse.
