Over the last eight games, Kyler Murray threw 7 touchdowns, threw seven interceptions and fumbled the ball seven times
Man the more you dive into numbers for the end of the season the uglier kyler and kliff look.

Our head coach was supposed to be an offensive genius. Our offense and especially our play calling stinks.

There isn’t one person on this site that didn’t know the Rams would pressure Kyler. That has become the M.O. in stopping us.
Did we move Kyler of the snap? Did we call any plays early to get some positive yards? Did we attempt to get the ball out of Kyler’s hands in 2.5 seconds?
No.
Instead we run Kyler to the right for a 2 yard loss. Then we throw 30 yards on 3 td down. I also wonder how much we worked on that trick play? You know. The one where Blockhead Kirk throws the 2nd pass forward. That was the first sign of “ we can’t match up with you guys”.

Terrible plan. Terrible play calling added up to terrible Qb play.

I’d also like to see a stat of how many times Kyler threw to the wrong receiver EVEN WHEN HE WAS SUCCESSFUL.
It has to be a staggering amount.
It all starts with Kliff.

Well that sucked but it was not unexpected. It was more of everything we have we have seen for the past several weeks.

The biggest frauds are Kliff and Kyler.

In a crucial playoff game with both their safeties out Kyler averaged 4 yards per attempt, completed on 55% and passed for 137 yards. In a game we were behind the whole game that's pathetic. Embarrassing actually.

This is what happens when your QB thinks they are gods gift. EZ pick 6. Another INT and should have had a 3rd.

Complete trash from Kyler and piss poor game plan from Kliff and Vance.

Watson is untouchable. If he gets cleared then yeah kick the tires but you can't trade for a guy who may spend years in jail until you know more about that.

Deshaun Watson isn't going to spend years in jail considering he's only facing a civil suit and it's been over 9 months.

Kyler Murray QBR - 7.6
Stafford QBR - 82.6

Kyler passer rating - 40.9
Stafford passer - 154.5

Theres a lot of blame going around. The more I think about it I think it should all go on Kyler. He was complete dog ****.

Green and Wesley didn't touch the ball once and only had 5 targets between them. Ertz only had 3 catches on 4 targets (Rams are one of the worst in the league between the numbers). He only ran twice for 6 yards.

He was 7/17 for 28 yards passing playing from behind in the first half.

No point blaming anyone else. When your QB is that astronomically bad you have no chance.

We'll come back from this guys. KK isn't going anywhere, although I'm not completely confident in Vance coming back.
There's no coming back from this as a team. If we don't clean house, tell Kyler he's getting no deal until he wakes the F up and decides to put in the work, we're set for mediocrity at best for the next 3-5 years.

Lindley didn’t have this bad of an olinemen. Admidly Kyler has made some bad throws and also held on to the ball for too long. Never found his rhythm….but man 2 secs and a free defender in the back of the end zone isn’t helping either
Admittedly? You just watched the worst playoff performance from a QB--a supposed (lmfao) talented QB--and tried to shift almost all the blame on the OL. And KM had about 5 seconds in the end zone but held the ball FOREVER. That play was 100 percent KM's fault. The kid sucked out loud, played like dog crap, and should say nothing but that he sucked and won't even think about an extension until he proves he can get better.

Kyler blamed the OL?

Progress? In the end, this is a failure of epic proportions. This was a 10-2 team! Kliff once again shows why he's the 4th best coach in the division, falling backwards into the playoffs, and then getting completely destroyed. Why would the finish be any different this year than last?

I don't even know where you start with this team. Two FA RB's, 1 good WR, no idea at TE, an OL full of holes, and a D that probably requires a complete rebuild. We get routinely owned in the trenches, and have a QB who folds whenever he's the least bit dinged up/losing.

Bringing back Keim/KK to fail again would be insanity.
No, it would be completely Bidwillian.

The grand jury is wrapping up this month. Apparently only 2 misdemeanors are on the table and that's without a plea deal. He can settle tge civil suits, serve his suspension and be back.

Do you have a link all I can find is they were expecting to go to the grand jury this month and that his lawyer and he said they were super confident but their entire defense seems to be if you know Watson he's a great guy, they didn't seem to explain why so many women suddenly all decided to do this if it's not true?

There's a grand jury on him right now. Grand juries decide what to charge someoen with. If he did nothing wrong yes he won't face jail time, if he did something wrong he'll face jail time. There are 22 women involved, Watson's attorney says all 22 are lying. Last report I can find said at least 10 of the women have filed police reports/complaints against Watson.

It sounds dumb but it's simple, if 22 women decided to lie about this then he's probably in the clear, if any of them are telling the truth he's going to be in trouble. The NFL would suspend him, the grand jury will try him etc.
