Hello fellow finfans. This is my first post, I have been a fin fan for 15 years and have been through the good times and the bad times. As far as the season is going we have all been both disappointed at times and happy at times.
I dont know if at this point we should start sage or not but what i do know is Gus has the 3rd lowest passer rating in the league at 66.5. Im not now nor am I ever ready to call any one of our seasons a wash. I too am sick and tired of watching ***** overthrows to our wide open recievers. I have sunday ticket and watch every game each week and see first hand these throws. I mean this definatley has to be one of the most disappointing games i have seen from frerotte not because he single handedly lost the game for us by throwing the pick at the end, but because he wasnt hurried, rushed, or sacked at all during the game and he only still only completed 13 of 22 for 103. Week in and week out our recievers are getting really open and Gus's accuaracy is nowhere where it needs to be, especially for someone who has played in the league for so many years (but then again, i guess thats why he has been a career back up). The o-line is improving greatly in terms of sacks allowed. The pre snap penalties are extremely bad but there have been a few games this season where our o-line hasnt given up any sacks which is a vast improvement over last year. Because of this it just puts more blame on Gus. He has the arm strength and the decision making to be good for us because he finds the open reciever, then I find myself screaming at the TV and yelling Gus sucks becuase he either overthrows or underthrows the reciever.
On another note, I've been hanging around this site checking out posts for about 2 years and I can't believe some of the negativity I have read from posters ripping our beloved team and saying how we should throw in the towel. I bet the players in the locker room are never ready to throw in the towel (Even ricky looks like he loves playing again whether we are winning or losing). True fans stand behind their team whether they are winning or losing, through the thick and thin, through the good and the bad. Last year was the worst season I have ever endured, but every week I was in front of the TV supporting our team, before each game I would always say how we were gonna beat whoever we were playing. No matter who dropped s**t on our team i supported them.
And yes i know there are a hundred threads about Gus, but its my first post so give me some love
One thing is for sure, you will never read any posts from me saying lets throw in the towel or our season is done, or our team sucks. Oh well, Im done B*****g about this.
Finkle is einhorn, einhorn is finkle, finkle einorn, einhorn finkle.
