Is it Mendoza time???

[pfish57]

We are on a 4 game losing skid, and I think it's time to put KC out to pasture...with that said all this talk of Mendoza getting destroyed is ridiculous...hell KC has somehow come out unscathed after 7 games what makes people think a mobile QB will fare worse...we aren't going anywhere with KC! It's time to get the kid some real game time experience & see what life with Mendoza entails!

Cousins is on a 1-year deal. We arent resigning him no matter what. The only reason to continue playing Cousins is if you think we can make the playoffs. We would presumably need a 10-7 record for that. Where do you see 7 more wins? Ill spot you CLE,TEN, SD, NYJ and ARZ. That makes 8 wins if we were to sweep those 5 games, which is no small feat in and of itself. Best case scenario is that still leaves us needing 2 more wins from DENx2, KC, SF and SEA. Playoffs arent a realistic possibility after the loss to the Rams. Time to face the facts. Facing up aint easy when youre whole world is black.

Maybe then some will fade away and not have to face the facts

I would say we aren't beating Cleveland at this point.... or Arizona.

The Raiders have a 63.2% completion percentage overall this season. Against man coverage, that drops to 48.6%, fourth worst in the NFL.

When the box is stacked Cousins ain't getting it done...Start Mendoza for better or worse...He needs reps and we don't need to handle another QB with kid gloves...personally I think they're afraid to possibly create a QB controvercy or maybe they told Cousins he would start all year or most of it barring injury "behind closed doors".

Whatever Kubiaks plan was stick to it. Fans wants are irrelevant.

100% but as fans it is worthy of discussion/opinion.

Honestly I think it gets under appreciated what Kirk’s been able to do. He’s leading the league in passing TDs and 3rd in yards. And that’s with maybe the worst receiving core in the league and the 31st ranked ground game. Our offence is 6th in points per game.

Once our season is officially dead… I think Mendo comes in. But prior to that, it’s hard to argue that Mendoza gives us a better chance to salvage the season. Not definitively, but generally Kirk’s been almost unfathomably productive given how weak the overall offensive personnel is.
