McCoys conservative play calling could put a dead man to sleep!!! Lol

It’s time, let the Rosen era begin. I promise you he will play better than Checkdown Sammy & inspire some confidence in these offensive players.

I think against the Bears it will be made clear to Sam and Josh that if Sam can't make something happen by the first half that Rosen is coming in. I doubt Josh gets the start, but I will be surprised if he doesn't see the field at half time if the offense has no life for a total of 10 quarters of football.

NO reason to wait another half. :deadhorse2:

Who's Rosen going to it throw to guys? Seriously?

He's going to get intercepted about 50 times, or decapitated, if you throw him out there with this awful oline and joke of a WR core.

So, save Rosen for later in the season.

The season is lost.

What's the cap benefit going forward for cutting Bradford before he gets on the plane and starting Glennon.

the on the field results can't possibly be worse.

I wonder how many people in Arizona googled "Sam Bradford contract" this afternoon.

The offensive line isn’t that bad and he can throw to Fitz, Kirk and Seals-Jones. But yes, he would be intercepted alot

I actually think the line has been okay.

It seems like Bradford's first read is to the flat or the checkdown. It's hard to blame receivers for the QB throwing to the underneath routes every play and it's hard to think it's by design when Bradford has been doing it his entire career.

I’m not buying that! It’s my opinion but Bradford is constantly throwing 4-5 yards passes, locking onto receivers staring them down & never really letting anyone get open.

We shall see, soon the Rosen era is sooner than later. I’m not letting McCoy get a pass either, but I think the game plan will slightly change given Checkdown Sammy’s injury history once Rosen takes over. Bradford isn’t helping our WRs either with pitiful throws & that’s fact

I don't think the OL is that bad, we don't seem to run block well but it's not like the Rams were all over Sam today. The offense is all short passes anyways, and sam always picks the shortest one.

Rosen isn't going to turn the season around but at least he can get live game experience, and give the fans something to look forward to.

We need better WR's and a better OL and a better defense yet, but Sam has been pathetic. There was one play where we did a delayed draw to DJ and for a veteran QB the fake by Sam was so bad the Rams were just sitting there waiting for him to hand the ball to DJ. not a single Ram player believed he was going to throw the ball.

Putting Rosen out there would be a total panic move. Dooming him forever.

Bradford's contract gives him 312k per week he's active.

I think I'd cut him tomorrow. Even if it means starting Glennon. I think I'd risk the increase in turnovers as opposed to nothing but 3 and outs.

Barring injury I wouldn't start him till after week 4 at best. If we continue to struggle offensively it will be due to online play and the worst thing you could due is get Rosen hammered for a season . I guess it all just depends on how they lose

David Carr. Learn the lesson from that fiasco of putting in a rookie behind a leaky OL.

I'd start Glennon if we had to. Bradford is useless.

I also don't think Rosen going out there changes his trajectory. Guys can handle adversity or they can't, there is only one way to find out.

I like the idea of starting Glennon
