I don't think saying Fitz sucks and is painful to watch is saying I give up and want the season to tank like last year. I'll even go so far as saying I'd rather watch a .400 team of young potential than a .600 team knowing it'll never achieve anything but mediocrity.
We have 3 W's. All three against crappy teams and two of which were because of good D and in spite of our offense. In our two losses, save for one half of Foster-of-yore running game, the O was again pathetic - especially the QB and passing game play. I'm wanting more. Can Mallett give us more? I don't know, but I'd certainly be excited in watching and finding out. Maybe he's not ready yet. But when he is, which will hopefully be before or after the bye, we traded for him so let's see what he's got. I can't imagine he'd be any worse than .500 or more boring to watch than Fitz. I'll have to admit, watching Fitz is a little less boring than watching the David Carr era after Year 1. Worst case is Mallett sucks and we go back to Fitz knowing for sure we need a new QB next year.
Foster, AJ, Meyers are a little different, IMO, because I can envision a scenario where they're still here next year if we can get some decent QB play or have hope at QB. No way Fitz is here next year, so let's move on with the QB progression. Next man up!
