  1. They should just inject Joe’s toe with some of the most illegal shit imaginable so he’s good to go next week

  3. People wanted to believe that Joe made the line worse, but the reality is that it is a terrible offensive line. Jake is not a good nfl quarterback, and people hoped his play from a few years ago would hold up. He is a worse player behind an even worse line, and Zac Taylor is not an adequate play caller. It’s going to be a long season.

  6. Jake is still Jake. We had a complete crap the bed game. The good news is that it only counts as 1 loss. Burn the tape and move along

  9. He was bad but nobody’s winning with 5 fumbles 3 of them occuring in four plays. Every QB in the league is going to lose when their getting help like they.

  10. Stick with him. That game was a team failure we can bounce back as a team. I dont see how going into a qb carousel is going to make things any better.

  12. It’s just one game… albeit the worst game in franchise history, only one direction from here. ⬆️ have some faith Who Dey bros. Not going to panic… yet. Haha

  15. We need to channel all our hate into Zac.

    Nothing will get better as long as Zac is our coach. He’s a loser.

  17. I like Browning, but he is what he is – a 29 year old career backup Quarterback in the NFL. He can be competent, but he’s not going to bring something miraculous to the team.

  18. How long do you guys think it would take for my toe to be delivered to Cincinnati? I’ll be sending it from Brazil.

    Jake’s story is cool, but there’s a reason he’s a backup. Unless something changes, our season ended with Joe’s injury. The real question is… do we even want something to change this season? Or are we better off just tanking? (and maybe having an opportunity to get a new coach in the offseason).

    As an outsider, I don’t think I can fully grasp how the community and people around the team feel about giving up this early, but I just don’t see this team competing even if we went out and got someone like Cousins. Maybe we’d be able to sneak into the playoffs, but nothing more than a wildcard win or loss.

  19. It’s one fucking game! Can we not overreact to one bad game by Browning? Every QB in the league has one bad game that they can throw away and bounce back.

  20. When the bengals beat us. Everyone was on the train. Now they are quick to jump off. Fans really do fan

  21. He is who he’s always been. A backup QB on a bad team with a bad coach. We have *not* had a contending roster since January 2023 and it’s well past time people realized that. We have glaring holes in our offense that Joe has had to spend every ounce of energy trying to mask.

    There is no salvaging this season without Joe. The only reason our offense looks competent is because we have a generationally talented QB with lightning fast processing and accuracy. That’s it.

    Jake isn’t the only reason we lost, but this game needs to wake up the fan base. We have one of the absolute lowest floors of any team in the NFL. We’re not the 2022-2024 49ers who were built to win and could plug and play backup QBs effectively. Our roster is genuinely awful aside from a select few. Our offensive line is a fucking *joke*. Our run game is literally nonexistent. Our offensive scheme is wildly outdated. Our defense is below average and that’s probably overstating things.

    Downvote me all you want but this team’s only chance to contend again is by losing as many games this year as possible. We should probably trade Trey before the deadline.

    We need to rebuild through the draft and hopefully clean out the coaching staff and front office. Even if we don’t lose the coaches and GM, a premium draft pick is much harder to fuck up than the 17th-22nd pick you might get after a useless 9-8 season. We have to take our lumps now and try rebuilding.

  23. I had an idea while I was working today.. what if we actually paid our O-Line, like really paid them, but in their contract there is a hefty fine each time they miss a blocking assignment, and if they miss a blocking assignment and it ends up in an injury to our QB1, it’s an automatic $2M fine… (haven’t finished sorting out the fine details, but you get the gist). I bet they would figure out a way to freaking block if it was hurting their pocketbook.

  24. My thoughts are that he can still produce. I have faith, nobody can just make it to the nfl. You have to have some skill. I believe in Jake Browning. I just do not believe in Zac Taylor who is the most predictable coach in the NFL.

    Every play is the most cookie cutter highschool playbook ass play of all time. Toss play for -1 yd. Screen pass for + 3 yds. Medium range throw on 3rd and 8 for either a first down or incomplete pass. If incomplete punt, if not then we basically do the same thing except you could potentially sub in another run during the spot of the screen pass. Or if it is 4th down and less than 5 yds to go, we throw a medium ball to tee or chase.

    And it doesn’t help when the rest of the team just looks dead inside, no excitement, no will to win, it just looks like a bunch of dudes showing up so they don’t get fined.

  26. The game ended when Noah Fant fumbled the ball & their defense scored their own 2nd touchdown of the half. It sunk our ship. It’s that simple. There was no coming back from that. Football is a game of momentum & when the pendulum swings so far one way, it will not come back.

  27. Jake looked off to me, like his arm hurts. He was throwing really low velocity passes, and a lot of lofting the ball to players that weren’t very far away, it was odd. I’m letting this one go, because it was a really weird weekend across the board for college and NFL football, and it looks like only the sport’s books actually won.
