I think the disagreement guys are having now is that Freeman isnt the guy who could do that or is he. I personally think he can with the right team around him. So if you have that, why would you just start over and risk the chance of not finding a guy who can win you a SB? Why dont you just build around that guy? Its like we need to have the right QB to win it all. Freeman is good enough, I think he just needs a solid team around him. Right now I wouldnt call this a solid team around him. Id call it less than mediocre with that defense. Put a solid team around the big man, and see if it he can win you the big one.

If you have a good defense, Josh Freeman can get you to a superbowl.
In my opinion, Briscoe was a better fit than him.)
I don't want to sign him now. I just want to see him with a better team around him. I agree he has sucked lately.
What most of us are saying is that we want to see how he does next year with a healthy team and a pass defense that doesn't get picked apart by rookie QB's. If he doesn't do well with that, then I think pretty much everyone will agree we should move on from him.

If he doesn't do well with that, then I think pretty much everyone will agree we should move on from him. why not just tell him flat out that we dont trust him, we dont think he's the longterm answer, but we are willing to give him one more chance to prove he is? bet that works out nicely.
Why would we tell him we don't trust him? Do you know what Schiano thinks of him? From what I can tell, it seems like Schiano trusts and likes the kid a lot.
Actually the problem isnt that Freeman stinks. He is average. He puts up good numbers just often enough to make you think he is better than he is. Bad and great are convincing. But mediocre makes you live with the delusion for too many years. He is just good enough to waste our time and not good enough to get us where we want to go.
