It's all bad. He's just the little guy on the top of this wedding cake of misery.

Ever said something you knew you'd eventually regret? Ever been too stupid or naive to realize you said it? Ever watched future self just kiss millions and millions of dollars goodbye? Dude. Really.

It's both column A and column B. Bryce ain't going to make it as an NFL starting QB. At least not here and probably not ever, the physical limitations just can't seem to be overcome consistently. And that's a shame because, well, he's a good kid and I wish it had worked out for him and us. But also, this ain't working out here as a team. We're poorly built from bottom to top. There's no consistency in coaching, there's no team identity, there's no grit, no depth and seemingly little plan or resistance to market influences that get us to buy high and sell low. We have a few guys we call star players that would, well, be starters on other teams, and a crap ton of starters that would be back-ups, bench sitters or free agents outside of this organization. No QB is going to come here and have much success. Much like Rodgers with the Jets, we just don't have fug all for a team. The QB, no matter the pedigree, can't pull us out of the mudhole we have created for ourselves as we've wallowed over the last seven years. No matter how high we draft a QB here, we'd just be planting a seed on rocky soil. It wouldn't survive. Look at Mac Jones and how he has played over three games in San Fran. He was supposed to be a total career washout, another 'Bama Bust. Guy looks like he can handle the game, because he has a well coached, professional team around him. One that has a lot of injured stars, but still fights to win. And you can look at Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold, two guys who washed up on our deserted desert island and floundered mightily here. But man, put them on solid teams and they both are living up to their original draft status. To be perfectly honest, this poo won't change until we, as an organization, change down deep. There has to be a total sea change here. We can't make the owners go away, but we can pressure for them to blow this thing completely up and hire in a handful of consultants, perhaps retired GMs and HCs with winning programs in the N-fuging-FL. Then remake it all. Management, coaching, team, trainers, scouts, even equipment folks. Sorry, I'm tired of this pile of horseshit we call a team. It has just eaten alive the careers of many young athletes and all of us fans since the change in ownership.

Oh poo.

It's not an apples and oranges comparison honestly. It's something terribly disappointing versus something incredibly disappointing. See, not the same thing at all. It just seems that way because, we the fans, keep seeing the same outcome again and again and again.

Never ever go after what the Browns wanted or took. Did we not learn anything from the Deshaun Watson affair? And yes, Baker Mayfield... didn't work out here. And Derek Brown... rode the pine like a king, worked a tiny bit of magic. Sanders is still sitting on the bench in QB Hell because there's a reason that a coach on the hotseat and a front office that is in shambles and a fanbase that is (once again) up in arms... And what that reason is, we aren't really sure of. Let's not frikkin' find out. We have our own set of problems and taking one off the Browns' hands isn't going to help us at all.

I'd admire Canales' coaching if the rest of the team, ANY of the rest of the team, appeared prepared and ready to play in games. We look like a bunch of people who didn't do their homework being called to the chalk board to explain a math problem. Was trying to figure out if we had any players left on the team today who were part of a winning season for the Panthers. Only one guy left I believe -- JJ Jansen. It has been a long time.

I think they need to bring Hendon Hooker up from the practice squad. Not saying start now, but they need to get him ready and maybe light a fire under Bryce. Bryce needs to know how thin his margin is right now.

All things aside, I still wish the young man better days ahead.

And the latest one. This time it takes place a bit closer to home, in Wythe County, VA. Let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions on how we can make these better, let me know.

House of cards finally collapsing. Once it is done, we can start to rebuild. Didn't know how good we had it back in the day. We were hating on Rivera and Hurney, Fox and Hurney. Stupid MFers didn't know what we had.

These might be the two softest coaches in the league. Their teams show it. It's going to be like a pillow fight.

If the contest requires that you physically impose your will on the opponent, you can't win if you are afraid of ruffling their feathers. This is the most wussified I have ever seen this team. There's no fight, no grit and it's even worse now than it was under Rhule.

That's why we need to scour the scouting department of the whole lot of them along with Mushy-head Morgan.

Sadly, you're probably right. Clausen comes to mind. I can still here him screaming like a little girl as the d-linemen chased him around.

Sure, keep him as the starter, but activate Hooker off the practice squad. Couldn't get much worse.

Here's the thing. It ain't just Bryce. Sure, he's not going to make it as starting QB in the NFL, but there's a whole team out there. And that's what we saw on display, again. Those guys, outside of the originally scripted first 10 plays, couldn't do anything. They were unprepared to play, they were badly coached in the moment and reverted to bad efforts in all three phases of the game. It was just bad. And that's on the coaches. And management. It's time to go ahead and blow this whole thing up. Let Morgan go first, get a new GM. Then get a new coaching and scouting staff. As much crap as Fox, Rivera and Hurney got, they were never, ever as embarrassingly bad as we have been for years now. This is the softest team in the league, most poorly built and least capable of finding their cojones. It's time this was done and over with. Yes, seven coaches in seven years would become eight. Sad as that is, we have no choice but to continue fishing until we suddenly catch something. Maybe we'll get lucky and Tomlin will be freed at the end of the year and Tepper will back a truck up to the man's bank account and just avalanche the dollars at him until he signs.

Hey, I wish the guy the best. He was nothing but a great player here. No hard feelings, hope he and his family are happy to be back home. But, we move on. Got some young guys on the squad that are going to get more field time now that he has moved on. Hopefully it's a win/win for everyone.

In honor of the Patriots, this week's feasting on the foes entree` is: Cheet-ohs. Nothing fits the bill (Belichick) better. And I know it's Vrabel coaching them now, but he's just Bill part 2.

Let him ride the pine for a couple more games. Turn him back over to practice and see if he's found it in himself again. If not, put him out there for trade bait. If we can't get it out of him, maybe someone else can. Chalk it up as a learning experience however it turns out.

I like that guy! He's been really good in the limited time on the field. We might have something there. Let's see him have another solid day against New England.

We've got to keep traditions alive. They'll see us through. Hopefully the original host of it will come back and take care of it next week!

Egg salad man. Egg frikkin salad. Who woulda thunk it? Feast on your foes. Patriots next week. Dunkin donuts and baked beans?

I certainly wasn't expecting that game. Wow. We've got a lot of work to do still, but that was a nice and welcome refresher. Let's do it again to the next team!

So very sorry to hear that. App guy here. Rest in Peace coach.
