    Move on 2 what??? Some mythological Qb. Some of You want different just for it 2 be different. You forget all the Qbs we went through before Him. That was with Noll, and Cowher....Now add this will be under Mike T.
    Don't want different just for different

    Ben is close to 40 years old, and Tom Brady he is not. You still seen to think he can play forever. I don't. It's over. Move on. As much as you think Ben still has gas in the tank, I think he's running on fumes, and will be coasting to a stop very soon.

    You do know if You don’t have the time 2 set up for a short throw...You don't have time for play action??? You...
    Never mind. Some of You just want Him gone.
    A Qb Tenth in Yards, eleventh in Tds, and twenty second in Ints....With this line, this defense, and the most veteran Weapon is DJ, but changing the Qb will fix everything. LoL

    Wrong . He makes himself a non starter. He has been sign 3 years 2 be a starter. Not my fault He losses his job. Check facts before you comment.

    It doesn't matter who it is. You can't keep pinning your hopes on an almost 40 year old QB that isn't Tom Brady. For example, the Ravens moved on from Joe Flacco because they knew it was over. The Chargers moved on from Philip Rivers because they knew it was over. Drew Brees walked away because it was over. We need to take a step towards the future, not keep trying to relive past glory.

    Yes and Rivers was sign 2 Colts , Flacco was never that good, and I know some Ravens fan that want him back, Drew was forced out, bet they wish they didn't do that. :shrug:
    I would totally understand if Ben was having a P. Manning 9 Td- 17 ints year , but He's not. Everyone that watches football knows how bad our o line is....and Young our weapons are Hell DJ is the most experience with 3 whole years.....Yet He (Ben)still is 10th in Yards, 11 in Tds, and 22nd in turnovers.

    Nobody ever said changing the qb will fix everything. Ben routinely misses on deep throws. Like seriously short on the majority of his deep passes. His timing and accuracy on short passes is generally terrible as well. Of course he puts up a decent quarter or half and you come along and praise him. Expecting everyone else to forget his garbage play for the prior three quarters. Ben had been playing for 17 years. He’s seen everything. He should know where the blitz is coming from and who the open receiver will be. At least that’s what a great quarterback does. Look at Brady. Blitz him and he will eat you alive. Ben stands there like a statue and tries to pump fake. The Vikings stacked the box in the first half. Dared Ben to beat them and he couldn’t do it. It wasNt all on him Thursday, but he definitely owns part of it. I bet you said similar things about ward and Troy. They were clearly done and the team did the right thing. The same should have been done with Ben.

    Wait, I’m confused, you believe in stats now? I thought wins and loses was all that mattered :smiley1:

    Yeah he did that's what the whole yelling at the Wr coach on the sidelines was about. Can't throw 2 a guy not looking. Yeah . He got sacked 3 times in under 2 seconds. 2 seconds. Half our guy don't even get off the line that quick. Think instead of just posting.
    I know You just want Him gone, but don't give me He has one , or 2 throws a game. He's 10th in Yards, 11th in Tds, and 22 in turnovers.with one of the worse olines in the league, and a bunch of kids as weapons...and that's having 2 come back in most games because the D is so bad.

    No just using what all of you Do. Stats. You didn't even have 2 comment ....it doesn't matter what the record, or the stats say....You want him gone. Can't wait till he is, and watch everything you magically blame on Him be magically moved 2 something else. He could win a SB ,and You would say it was everything, but him that attributed 2 it.

    He was traded to KC because San Francisco already had Steve Young starting.

    Considering his age, one more season isn't gonna matter. I'm willing to live with what we move onto, good or bad.

    So you’re saying the 9ers saw Joe getting long in the tooth and had a back up plan? Hmmm.

    Not I. I still remember all those other Qbs, and that was with a great defense, not the defense we have.

    Want him gone because he’s playing bad. I was a Ben homer once upon a time too, used to defend him when people were saying he was washed up 5 years ago but I’m not going to deny what he is now, which is a shell of himself.

    If Ben left here and lit it up, I’d be the first to admit I was wrong. If he went to another team and was dead last in every statistical category, you’d still defend him.

    But you're not winning a championship with Ben. Call it more than a hunch. So it's irrelevant.

    That's where we are different....because NO I wouldn't, but He's not .

    Hell You are the person who defended Lamar. LoL. With less Tds passing, and rushing put together, less yards, and 6 more turnovers. That was the Guy You just said You would take over every Qb in the league wasn't it, or should I dig up the post. LoL
