Fisher hate turnovers. So I can see why he's not changing to Keenum. But apparently he hates scoring too.

Come to think of it, the only plays I seem to remember him making are either comebacks, Play action Go and Post routes or WR Screens. I can't remember even a ten yard or 15 yard dig hit in stride.

Because he can't do it. His arm strength is lacking he can't drive the ball, he can only float the ball
- Dead last in passing yards among starting QBs (ok...not really. Big Ben and Mariota are behind him.....but they've actually missed games.....and are only about 200 behind. That's awful)
- 28th in Completion %. Only an injured Luck, a rookie Winston, an all offense goes thru him Newton, and Bortles are worse. And all out outperforming in virtually every other stat.
- 24th yards/attempt
- 28th in passing TDs.
- 27th in passer rating
- He's actually taken some of the fewest sacks amongst NFL QBs.....
All while stinking up the joint. He's dreadful. And he's not the worst.....he's barely keeping his head above water.
Its actually more of a HEAD thing (INCLUDING EYES) even more than his very problematic arm. He is a ONE READ QB that limits the play calling and almost a Book has been written about how he refuses to LOOK over the middle.
We have so many recievers running free and he is TOO TALL to be missing all of it. If Nick could read defenses he would never have been let go by Chip Kelley, along with his refusal to throw or look over the middle. We have a major head case on our hands.
I do know that Dieter Brock at least saw an NFC Championship game against the 85 Bears and Fishers "D" he played on. Brock also own the highest comp. % for a RAM QB ever. He sucked with his short throws but he was consistent at least. Our QB is too slow and lacks the ability to read defenses and know when we have a free running WR. Too often to not notice. The wind should not have effected a giant QB like Foles as much as he let it.

This is the part a lot of people here don't seem to understand.
Why? Why don't we have other options?
Blaine Freaking Gabbert is making plays in place of Colin Sackorpick right now.

Davis looked good for a few weeks too. We have options but neither Keenum nor Mannion offers more. Maybe they have a good game or two...but eventually, they get figured out and we're stuck in the same situation.
Maybe we can sign a running QB off the street and just run the read option. I hear Tebow is available?

No, that's far from true. Davis was horrible down the stretch. The might Shaun Hill took his job at mid season. Seriously.

I do know that I'll take two games of good play before "they get figured out."
He's not that far from the worst in the nfl.... But he's here for a while so let's hope for the best
I believe that Keenum would offer us some functional mobility. I also think Keenum would pull the trigger on wide open, primary receivers.
If we are going to shitcan the season with a player that is not helping us, I'd sure rather, we take a look at what else we have. I'll say this about any player that is not performing, or improving.
I was having arguments with myself about some of our last drives. I was saying, "Pass it, pass it". Then I was saying, "Fuck it, don't pass it, because you'll fuck it up". If I was coaching this game, would I have trusted Foles with the ball... and if we can't trust him, then why the hell is he in there?
I'm so fucking confused.
