You are talking about purely last possession? That would be an extremely small amount and likely almost be exclusively GW FG drives. Outside the EXTREMELY rare walk off TD, most of these scenarios involve the other team getting the ball back in some fashion(kickoff, last couple of plays, etc).

It's lazy, retarded AI nonsense. "Works."

Game 1(Jags): Trailed in 4th, comeback victory. Game 2(Tampa): Never trailed. Game 3(Atlanta): Never trailed. Game 4(New Orleans): Never trailed. Game 5(Indy): Led in the 4th, allowed them to tie and we won in OT. Game 6(Tennessee): Trailed entire game. Lost. Game 7(New Orleans): Trailed entering 4th, took lead, allowed them to tie to send to OT. Won in OT. Comeback victory. Game 8(Houston): Led entering 4th quarter. Gave up 4th quarter TD to lose. Game 9(Tampa Bay): Led 20-7 entering 4th. Gave up 17 straight points in 4th. Rallied for a GW FG. Comeback victory. Game 10(Washington): Tie at 10 entering 4th. Scored to go up 13-10, allowed a Redskins TD to go down 17-13. Scored the next drive. Comeback victory. Game 11(Dallas): Trailed entire game. Lost. Game 12(Philadelphia): Trailed after first drive. Lost. Game 13(Atlanta): Led in 4th quarter, gave up tying TD. Lost in OT. Game 14(Arizona): Trailed entering 4th, scored to take lead, allowed tying score and then drove for GW FG. Game 15(Detroit): Never trailed. Game 16(New York Giants): Never trailed. So in 9 total games were we ever behind in the 4th quarter. Of those: Entered 4th Leading: 2 Games(1-1) Entered 4th Trailing: 6 Games(3-3) 4th Tied: 1 Game(1-0)

GWD -- Game-winning drives led by quarterback. Must be an offensive scoring drive in the 4th quarter or overtime that puts the winning team ahead for the last time.

Huh? He "only" had 5 4th Quarter Comebacks in 2003. Where are you getting this "trailed in the 4th quarter 12 out of 16 games?" We only ENTERED the 4th quarter trailing 6 total times and we went 3-3 in those games.

3 TO's and 17 penalties.

Their fuging numbers aren't even right. Dimestore meme.

It's extremely bad AI if you pay attention to the details.

The fact he keeps getting abused makes me think something might be up. I am not buying he just suddenly is in this funk.

I am not a PFF subscriber so I can't look at the game by game. IIRC, he has been on a bad streak of either "in a row" or "X out of the last Y." I know it has dragged down his season PFF rating quite a bit.

I think it's 3-4.

This has been what, 3-4 straight games of playing poorly? Something ain't right.

I refuse to pet Adam Schefter.

Pretty sure he means the 5th year option. If he balls out the rest of the way and we win a few more, I am fine extending him to that 5th year option. That's with the caveat that we have multiple options available at the position going into TC. That is a begrudgingly acceptable result.

The amount of Brissett and the Joneses are getting should make us take a hard look at Dalton this offseason. Ask yourselves if you wouldn't pay literally double what Brissett and Mac Jones are getting paid just to have a reliable backup option.

Yeah, that's what I mean. Weinke would probably have to be removed. Him stinking it up as a 4th rounder isn't really particularly abnormal.

I mean, I am not in the heads of every one of his teammates but I would wager the ability to play through an injury does inspire confidence but probably not as much as the ability to put up the performance he did yesterday. If he would do that more, injured or healthy, I am pretty sure his teammates would definitely have a ton of faith in him. Which, for all we know they always have. We aren't intimately familiar with the general thoughts of his teammates nor probably will we ever be. This is just one of those speculative things that I don't tend to argue to vehemently about or even put much stock in simply because the unknowns are massive and the knowns are very small. There is anecdotal evidence in the way of public comments or teammate body language(which is very interpretive anyway) but aside from that the public is almost always very shielded from the true thoughts on specific players. Winning and playing well seems to cure all the ails. Hopefully that just continues and this isn't really a debate at all.

On his career(not including yesterday), Bryce is about 55-60% of his total attempts being less than 10 yards from the LOS. I can get the exact percentage, if you want.

I believe for his career his lowest efficiency area targeted is 10-20 yards. Not by a ton but I do believe it is his worst area of the field. Not great for a game managery style QB. You are correct, this is the area he must improve dramatically.

On what planet do you think this one game will net Bryce a lengthy contract extension? We still haven't even decided on his 5th year option yet. I would hope we have an at least basic level of competency in our Front Office(debatable, I know) that we wouldn't have a Huddle-esque knee jerk reaction that translated into immediate contract extension. If you see us pick up his 5th year option this week and/or sign him to a contract extension in the next week or two, then you may be correct that we are that stupid. The far more likely scenario is that we let the rest of the season play out and then make the next decision necessary on his future here.

That depends on the factors involved. Quite a few of the shorter passes that we do throw the "check down" is one of the first 1-2 reads. One could argue that could be because of Bryce but that's really almost impossible for us to know without Dave Canales essentially telling us that directly.

I don't think there was anything particularly that he did that made him better as a leader than just play very well. He has played very well before. In terms of leading by "example" or "play" than I suppose this was one of his best performances. In terms of playing through injuries or getting banged up....he has also done that before too. It's the play and/or results that were outside the norm, not really any of the other aspects. He's been a leader, he's been a cheerleader(for his teammates), he's come back from in game injuries, etc. He didn't do anything particularly new other than execute well. That's basically all he has ever really been lacking.

I don't really think he nor the DC offense is going to be a consistent 20+ yard targeting offense. We just don't run that kind of offense. In fact, Bryce has never really been in an offense that strayed too far from basic West Coast principles in his NFL career. So, the lack of deep targets can't really be placed completely on his shoulders. It's easy to individually blame him for missing reads deep, which he has over and over. But, I would wager that if you really broke down those "missed reads" in detail that the deep target misses wouldn't stand out statistically. Just a hunch, I have no details on that at all.

Massively so. He had a 136.46 QB Rating in the 10-20 area on Sunday. That has been his least efficient area of passing on the season with a 59.8 QB Rating prior to yesterday. It's been even less efficient than his 20+ yard attempts.

He isn't perfect but I had him as my #1 WR in that class for a reason.
