I have no problem putting Rosen in the game. It was a no lose situation for him. My problem is taking the ball out of his hands and not even having Johnson on the field in 3rd and 2. THAT is inexcusable
Wilks better sack up and give Rosen 1st team reps and name him the starter.

If he waffles I'm going to lose it.

Given the clamor to see Josh Rosen, I would have found it hard to imagine a way the coaching staff could have put him into the game, and do so in a way to make the staff look bad

They did it


down 34 with nothing to lose? Nope
down 1 trying to win a game with 4 mins left? perfect

the only thing that topped that decision was the one to put the ball into Chase Edmonds hands on 3rd down good grief


I agree with you.


I know Bradford had turned it over three times already, but my point is that at the point in the game, he gave us the best chance to win.

Of those other 0-3 teams, which one do you think we win against? That should give you your answer of how bad we are.
Seriously? I think we can beat any of them. We almost beat the bears if Bradford wasn’t completely incompetent today we would have.

Well we lost to Washington (2-1), LAR(3-0) and Bears(2-1) while the Texans lost to the winless giants and grabbert led titans. I didn’t say we were the best, I just don’t think we’re the worst.

You realise we have given each of those teams one of their wins?

And therein lies the problem. This team will continue to find ways to lose. They had complete control of this game for 1 quarter then the same old Cards for the rest of the way on both sides of the ball.

Ok Washington beat the packers today, who are considered a playoff contender. The rams haven’t even been challenged in their 3 games including beating LAC, who some believe could be the class of the AFC this year. And the bears who were one long pass from Rodgers to Cobb from being 3-0 so yes I know we gave them all a win.

I posted this earlier in the game day thread that we had 34 total yards besides our scoring drives. If Rosen is our qb going forward we are not the worst team in the nfl.

I don't know if you can say we "almost" beat them. We played one half of football. We gave up 16 unanswered points in the second half.
We were 7 yards out of FG position and Bradford fumbles the ball inside the 25 which is FG position so yes we almost won.

We ain't playing horseshoes here. Almost doesn't feed the bulldog. We almost won the Super Bowl too but they don't credit you with almost.

I never said it did. It’s not like we got blown out like the previous 2 weeks. We were in this game and if it wasn’t for Bradford playing like a rookie and not protection the football, I believe we win this game. The whole argument was you said were the worst team in the nfl and I stated I think we can beat some, like we SHOULD have today. hopefully going forward our rookie plays and I’ll understand the rookie mistakes a little more.

This! An rpo was the call to make there. Play action with D.J. and give the kid a chance. Instead we set him up with 4th and 5 against bears D. Even an incomplete pass would not have lost yards. Stupid call.
