Don’t you dare blame Jameis

I’ve been watching bad offense all season (regardless of who was under center).

Exactly

Like I said, you’re making excuses. Again, Jameis has been our backup longer than he’s been our QB1. Those systems you keep trying to act like drastically changed were pretty much the same since he’s been on the team.

You act like Payton and Carmichael didn’t design the offense together. Pete isn’t some new hire. The terminology wasn’t dramatically switched out when Carmichael became the OC. If that were true, you’d have heard more from skills players who’ve been on the team the same amount of time as Jameis, how different the new calls/terminology were from years past.

I never said all the blame is on Jameis. I don’t think most of the blame should be on him. But he does‘t get a pass like he’s some rookie with no feel for the skills players on the team or the system he’s called to execute. If he’s still having issues playing w/in the system, then he is of no use to us.

What excuse did I make? You said that he has been in the system 4 years and I corrected that incorrect statement. And if you don't know that these systems are different, I don't know what to tell you. We were sitting here talking about the return of motion and Kamara at receiver when we saw that heavy when the offense opened up in 2021. The 2021 offense was not like what we ran with Drew because we had to accommodate for the lack of Drew's arm strength. You call those excuses (for whatever reason) and anyone looking at the game can see that this is reality. Nothing about the offense that Pete Carmichael, Jr. ran out there last season and this season is anything like we have seen with Sean Payton. Terminology will probably be there but that doesn't make the offense the same.

To give you your credit, you've been building up the pre-excuses for any Jameis failure since the first game of this year. All the references to 'since 2021' haven't exactly been hard to spot 🤣

It's real devotion to the cause on your part.

Nope, I've been talking about why this offense will fail. Some of us actually look at what's happening on the field instead of putting all of our energy into nitpicking what the QB does. The play calling has been trash since the beginning of last season, the O-line and run game has been bad since 2021. I'm on record saying these thing while others were blaming the QBs..lol
