It's madness.

I tried. I tried as this offseason progressed to take the medium optimistic approach. Nothing wild, just give Fisher and his staff the benefit of the doubt. Make a case for myself and others that they can be better this year.

And I just can't believe it myself anymore and certainly don't feel like convincing anyone else.

You've just pointed out some serious futility, max.

Does anyone else see a possible connection between the way JF refused to bring in competing QB talent for so long, and the way he refused to bring in an experienced OC to challenge their current offensive approach?

Sunday's win was a triumph of defensive will against an arch rival. But even in a win, the offense continued to extend it's streak of pathetic ineptitude.

Yeah, I think Gurley is frustrated. And it's stifling his natural RB creativity.

I think Boras is at least as not ready as Goff is.

And I think Keenum is at his ceiling. He's a try hard, good guy, but he's just not an NFL starter, and maybe an emergency backup at best.

And it's crazy that Snead makes a statement like he did about making the playoffs the last two years if only Keenum was their QB. That's crazy talk.

Somewhere, somehow, this entire staff and GM have become unmoored from the rest of the NFL world's concept of offense.
Offensive strategy, offensive schemes, offensive variety, offensive personnel, offensive competence. Just. Not. There.

And they can't admit to themselves, that THEY are the problem. So they keep trying to cajole the players that they've stuck themselves with, and they keep trying to fend off the media, and they keep saying things like "we need to work harder", when they're just screwing it into the ground harder and harder.

How can Kroenke even consider rewarding this with an extension? How, I ask you?
