Clearly what I’m saying has gone over your head. Whether equating “immediate pressure up the middle” to simply “pressure”, or thinking I was making any sort of comment about the Car/Hou game as a whole, or continuing to think about Bryce existing only in the context of this offense directly after I said it is moronic to do so. This is the problem, we can’t have a normal discussion because of idiotic takes like he doesn’t have talent, he can’t throw the ball 20yds, Stroud would look just as good in this offense, we would be happy with Richardson who may never throw right again, etc. Keep telling people to “cope” instead of having an actual conversation. And the complete lack of awareness to sit there on a high horse and try to talk about people who just want to be right. Pot meet kettle.

Ah yes, Bryce is whiffing blocks and running slow and bad routes. Last game, when Bryce put the ball in Mingo’s hands on second down, it was Bryce who dropped the pass for him because Mingo didn’t feel “unlocked” enough to catch that pass. And it was obviously Bryce who made the OL whiff on their blocking assignments and the RB run backwards on first down to lose yards. Then it was Bryce’s fault the OL false started on the subsequent 3rd down. So clearly when Bryce is forced into a 3rd and 18 behind an OL that can’t pass protect with slow WRs that can’t separate, he should be a miracle worker as a rookie QB. And he should do that over and over again every game just to salvage some semblance of an average offense. This is all very realistic.

Ah yes, Bryce has about 5% of plays per game where absolutely everything isn’t falling apart around him and he isn’t throwing TDs on every one of those plays. Super realistic expectations. It is mind numbingly stupid to pretend you of all people can properly evaluate a QB in this offense. Keep ignoring the many professionals who are saying the same as me. Like Feely just the other day talking about how lack of confidence in your OL (deserved lack of confidence as well) can lead to not climbing the pocket even when it’s clean and every play being a scramble drill. Professionals who have forgotten more about football than you’ll ever know have been pointing it out all season. I’m just hoping this season doesn’t ruin him for the rest of his career. We talk about David Carr as a “who knows whether he would have become a good QB if he wasn’t surrounded by incompetence to start his career”. We don’t say “well he clearly wasn’t talented.” The talent is clearly there and to continue to pretend like it’s a talent issue is just dumb. Sorry if I don’t adhere to your arm chair gm evaluation of a QB you are determined to hate. “Cope” indeed what a cringe argument.

I’ve only watched one Stroud game, Panthers vs Texans, and he looked just as terrible as Bryce the few times he had immediate pressure like Bryce has had to deal with on what feels like damn near every drop back all season. Richardson has the same injury that ended Cam’s arm. Imagining that either would be some panacea to this atrocious offense is absolutely ridiculous. If we drafted Stroud you would be talking about him as a bust in this offense.

Cam had 1 year 20 mil left.

Pushing Jordan Gross into early retirement so we could start Byron Bell…

Who was the RB in 2017 or was that a typo? Also don’t forget Evan Mathis. But this current cluster all goes back to Matt Rhule. Bridgewater should have never been here. We had Cam in the final year of his contract, all we had to do was keep him and see if he was still our guy. Then if he leaves and signs somewhere in FA he gets factored into the comp pick formula. Also, Hurney wanted to trade up for Justin Herbert but Rhule didn’t.

Did you watch the game? There were definitely some good runs and some times when the run was working really well, but there were also drives killed by negative yardage runs on first and second down. I remember one it was first down run for like negative 2 or 3 yards. 2nd and 13 Mingo drops a pass. False start on OL. Then all of a sudden we’re 3rd and 18 with an OL that can’t pass protect. Or the field goal in the first half we were driving but then we had a first down run that lost like 4 or 5 yards and that was the end of that drive this offense can’t recover from that. poo like that happens way too much. Then the D keeps giving Dallas free first downs with bonehead penalties, and before you know it we’re going into the half down 17-3 and pretty much in panic mode because scoring 14 points while not allowing any on D is pretty much impossible for this team.

I think the winning lotto numbers are 1,2,3,4,5 Go buy your tickets now.

I said last season that we would be dealing with the fallout from Rhule and his shitty program for years. Part of the complete ineptitude of these players is the years spent with Rhule. I don’t think Reich has done a good job here so far by any means, but he’s had more success on every level as a coach than Rhule can dream of. Saying Rhule is a better coach is just sensationalism. Reich is failing partly because many of these players were “developed” by Rhule and came up in the Rhule culture. They are football dumb and look lost.

Wtf happened with the most recent stuff with violating probation, throwing rocks at the car, etc.? Was that all bs? Seemed like possible jail time and at the very least more discipline from the NBA but it’s been crickets.

Yeah let’s not talk about how Mingo made no effort to catch the ball that was placed right in front of him.

It’s crazy. Nothing in any of these coaches history points to this level of incompetence. The playbook is trash, the play calling is trash, and the players are trash. I think it is clear the players cannot execute this playbook. But that has been clear since week 1. Yeah maybe you give them a few weeks and see if it clicks, but I just don’t get how at this point the coaches have made zero changes.

The defense has been bad on the year not just tonight.

Tyson Bagent 5 interceptions the past 2 games, zero tonight. Not impressed at all with No Show Evero.

Trash D. Trash O. Trash team.

Knew we were fuged as soon as we took the timeout.

Not even close

We’re fuged now should have stayed no huddle.

Great effort by Mingo there.

The untouched rusher Panthers special.

The balls to throw to anybody but Thielen on 4th with the game on the line lol.

My dude bobbled that get him out.

Damn they brought Hurst back in for Tremble. Not good.
