    Why do we even Josh Johnson?

    I thought the whole point of getting him was to run the plays we were running with deshaun.

    Instead we are running obriens garbage getting our wrs killed and tes concussed

    We got him bc McNair thought it was a creative way to save face and not look like a cockish slave owner. But it actually just made him look worse when Obrien threw the move under the bus.

    Here's a semi-random thought I have been having a lot lately;

    I just find it humorous that we fans and the media talk about backup QBs like they are scum on the bottom of an old shoe, when most of these guys are highly intelligent elite athlete millionaires who can easily pull 9s and 10s.




    That being said, Tom Savage is dumpster juice unfit to QB for a high school team.

    Point? I’m a highly intelligent HR pro who can easily pull 9s and 10s. Doesn’t mean that I’m not scum.

    Can't even get to the top of his drop.

    Nice OL.

    It was to dodge the Kaep pressure. Johnson will never actually be on the field game day with a texans jersey on.

    Some of it is, some of it isn't. When you combine a terrible OL with possibly the slowest dropback in NFL history, refuse to run the shotgun regularly, and hold the ball too long too often, bad things will result.

    How many ****ing fumbles does this guy have to have before BOB yanks his ass and cuts him from the team??

    Dude has more fumbles lost than TDs hell hes has more fumbles lost than games played! And I guarantee if he goes back out there he will lose another one this game!!

    Todays win keeps Savage as the starting QB the rest of the season Cards are just as bad and they made him look like a top 10 QB S M H. Next game is a Monday night game the rest of the country get to see how bad Savage when we get blown out. With Savage as QB final record will be 5 - 11.

    Ravens offense sucks too so unless they’re defense is scoring all the points, won’t be a blowout

    My prediction for next weeks game:

    Tom Savage comes out guns blazing. 4 TDs in the first half. Leading a 2minute drive for another score, meteor falls out of the sky and kills him right there on the field. And nick mArtin too. But not xsf.
