  1. IMO and IME that type of vibe stems from guys who are bitter about them perceiving a poor performer as not being willing to work to improve. Athletes, at least in the NFL, don't tend to be negative about each other publicly unless they feel like they're being slighted by a guy behaving poorly and/or actively not doing the things to get better. Can anyone recall/find if the team ever dumped on Clausen? I reference that because he was awful on the field and of course guys got frustrated with that, but he was still around for another 3 years even after the regime changes. That speaks volumes to his attitude, accountability, and behind the scenes work and relationship with his teammates. Bryce is human and I feel for him on that level. However, at some.point dude has to buck up and recognize his role in this situation.
  2. Ah, sure enough. Maybe they're done with the 2-night thing. I'm too lazy to look it up.
  3. Get Bryce out there and let him start learning defenses from the inside.
  4. This Metallica tour is 'no repeat' across 2 nights, meaning there will be a show Friday night and another Sunday night, each with different openers and with Metallica playing entirely different sets each night. We went to the show in St. Louis last year and it was a good time. That said, Tepper sucks.
  5. I suspect their thinking was that he and Thibodeaux would synergize and help elevate each other for the remaining years of Kayvon's rookie contract. Because that's exactly what you want, to drop $30MM on a guy that can't deliver results without potentially having a star on the other side of him. Lolz. Hope the Giants are enjoying it.
  6. Bryce does not have Brees' build or early-career arm and sure doesn't have his mental game of competitive fire at this point. Unless he turns something around within himself, Bryce seemingly has no redeeming qualities at this point that are worth trying to build around. Dude seems Charmin soft.
  7. I love it. My hope back in 2020 when it was apparent that Cam wasn't in the equation was that they'd bring in Jameis and let him wing it all over the place. If the team is gonna suck, at least keep it interesting and dynamic. The football that's been played this past year, as in 2020, has been soul-crushing.
  8. This whole thing has been interesting. We don't know what all was said behind closed doors, so it's possible that Bryce was told Sunday night he was still the guy and then told the opposite on Monday, but other than that scenario why would he think such terrible play wouldn't run the risk of being replaced? Assuming reports of him/his circle being 'shocked' at his benching, assuming this being 'pissed' is true, and assuming the rug wasn't pulled as I describe above (lot of assumptions here), signs could point to a sense of entitlement and perception of zero challenge/competition.
  9. I'll help you. Check out the bolded part above where I acknowledge that there were still a lot of sacks that weren't necessarily his own fault.
  10. Tepper is all about being in front of the camera when he thinks he's pulling something over on the league. Remember how visible he was in 2020, particularly at the end when he and Rhule were badmouthing Teddy? That might be true for other owners as well, but it is striking how he disappears from view when things go wrong. And the 'point guard' soundbite... my god. What a cringe moment as soon as it happened.
  11. Eh, with all of the preseason reps he got I would think he is prepared to at least run the offense. I would think the whole point of benching him, unless the scenario I described, would be to keep him off the field as much as possible. He has been simply atrocious.
  12. Well that's a terrible call IMO unless Canales truly believes that being sat is the only kickstart Bryce needs.
  13. Did they say Bryce would be the backup? If so, I haven't seen that. My assumption is 3rd string/full inactive with Plummer as #2.
  14. A large number of those were his own fault. Still a high number even with those taken out, but that total was a notable symptom of Bryce's poor individual performance.
  15. Duh. At no point last year except for the 2nd half of the GB game did Bryce look like a QB near, or especially not above, the Mendoza line (Dalton line...). Him showing up and playing markedly WORSE this year just drove that point home.
  16. It was always going to be an uphill battle with him no matter what due to the inferior physical tools. Was a bad pick at that spot from the start that looks even worse now.
  17. Jesse Bates - week 1 Kenny Moore - week 9 DaRon Bland - week 11 Antoine Winfield - week 13 Antoine Winfield - week 18 All secondary players.
  18. He means that Dalton hasn't had a winning record in a season as a starter since 2015, which is true. However, several seasons were at .500 or just below it, so still notably better than anything Carolina has put on the field in years.
  19. This is absolutely pathetic. Whether Canales, Bryce, or whatever combo thereof, my son's 8th grade QB was throwing the ball 40 air yards this week. Just insane to AGAIN be seeing this out of Bryce and this offense.
