Yeah, I don't want to keep dragging this nonsensical racial element into it but most of the league's biggest QB stars are black QB's. This isn't the 80's/90's or even 2000's. The bulk of NFL fans TODAY just want a MFer who is good at their job and can play at a high level. Now college football.....that poo still has a LOT of what he was talking about. Especially in SEC land. Heard it personally even in recent times.

Jax has a platoon of very capable pass rushers and Dallas does not. I think that played the biggest role in that difference you saw in Niman. Make no mistake, he will get carved up by top end pass rushers. But, someone has to start so give him some help the best way you can and roll on.

His happy feet are reminiscent of David Carr.

So XL shouldn't have expectations but McConkey didn't seem to struggle with that. How is TMac doing versus expectations? How about Ricky Pearsall? Keon Coleman? Xavier Worthy? How about there are 15 rookies from the 2025 draft that have out produced XL in 2025? How do you explain a year under his belt getting less production that 15 fuging rookie WR's. But, no....tell us about how we just need to be patient. Because that really worked out well for Mingo and TMJ, after all.

This thread is turning into bizarro world. Most of the anti-Bryce crowd was heavily pro CJ Stroud so I am confused how that ties into any racial element. Not saying we still don't have some of that crowd in here but it's not like the Prime Cam years where this place was rife with those types. The anti-Bryce sentiment SEEMS to MOSTLY be rooted in his underwhelming physical stature/abilities and/or his underwhelming overall career to date. All this being amplified by the massive trade haul we gave away for him. So, technically we have missed the opportunity to draft Jaden Daniels AND passed on CJ Stroud. Fairly or not, Bryce hasn't measured up to those type of players at all.

That's an interesting theory. He did come back REALLY quickly from that AC joint sprain. He did also have medicals with us and other teams so I guess if that was the case, no obvious long term damage was found.

It's always the biggest crybabies that are threatening to take their ball and go home too. Well....go then, MFer. This place will still exist.

While being tied for 3rd on the team in targets. WHILE missing games. The one thing the XL stans better not say is that we "didn't give him a chance." That dude is getting more targets through 20 career games(104 targets, 5.2/GM) than Mingo(4.7/GM in 24 games) and TMJ(3.1/GM in 36 games) ever did. All this while barely out producing them.

He is the president of the Huddle TMac fan club so he is a bit oversensitized to something that isn't even remotely offensive in the slightest. I don't really like when people call me by my last name but in various work settings, it happens all the time. I don't get my panties in a bunch over it.

It's hard to say. He comes off as an elite CB/WR ish diva on occasion. But it is hard to say if that extends to his interactions with teammates. Personally he just comes off as the weird goth kid to me.

Not a chance. The Tet Offensive will still be in my game day vocabulary.

For all the LaFail years we experienced here, he actually had a surprisingly long and productive NFL career.

Lol. WTF. This is a fitting and insane end to this thread.

Dalton has a stronger arm than Bryce. He always has. I mean, Will Grier also had a cannon for an arm. So does Anthony Richardson. Doesn't necessarily mean they are more suited to play than Bryce.

He will try to hold them hostage for a govt. bailout. Typical billionaire BS.

Not sure I would say lacking him specifically cost us games. Those losses were very much a team effort. The AT impact would be more so along the lines of not dropping the passes that TMac has or just generally being a more reliable panic outlet for Bryce. Ultimately Bryce has to get some chemistry with non-AT players. That is starting to happen and that's a positive thing overall.

He has a lot to work on for sure but he has been a huge boost to the offense. It's nice to finally have an elite WR.

Corbett at OG I am 100% fine with. Corbett at Center was a fuging disaster.

I think it is because of the crap we have endured that players don't get the benefit of the doubt. Too frequently that has failed us in the past decade. I haven't seen much in the way of progress yet. He is starting to regain some of the form he had in the last few games of 2024 after being quite bad early in 2025. It's not all his fault, to be sure. But it's too often his fault is the ultimate problem. Hopefully he just eventually gets to be even remotely consistent over the course of 2025. As a former Bryce stan, I just don't have much faith left, unfortunately.

He was our best YAC guy in 2023 and 4th in 2024(behind Hubbard, Sanders, Coker). He was a great and productive WR for us because he knows how to play the game, he had a connection with Bryce specifically and our other options have largely been atrocious.

Well, we did try that for several years unsuccessfully, so I do think that may be impacting Tepper's decision making.

TBD. That was what the team has said but then you had all the reporters in TC talking about how great he looked conditioning wise. Either he showed up to OTA's in sad shape or there is some messaging going on. Either way, he isn't going to be able to not be in good or great condition and have a lengthy career. He better learn that lesson early. It's something Nacua was public about battling.

Well, you really have to be an elite running unit for that to work....most of the time. You still need some level of creativity in the offense. Ask the post-Kellen Moore Eagles.
