That is what I was thinking it will be. Maybe even the regular backup with the other guys we have being pretty poor options. If he did have to play you could still use White or Hooker if his ankle was not happy about it. But I don’t see the point in risking a setback.

We were so blessed with Luke. He was stellar, like the ultimate blend of intellect and football player.

Even if we stand pat on Bryce in the near term there needs to be some new blood and some real competition to push this thing higher.

I think the Alex Smith to Mahomes transition might debunk that. They dropped in a better QB and it transformed them.

If his arm isn’t shot we give up some mobility. But we gain an arm and the will to stand in and step into pressure to make a throw. We surely gain better play action performance and more options off of it. Deeper routes can be in play. A little expansion of the effective target area. That is money with a good running game.

You need a good sense of humor to call that funny. But I was lamenting that the other day. We are winning some games with that approach. Took us two and a half years to get back to where we started from.

We pretty much spent a fortune on the OL to buy time in the pocket, which okay right now they are out. But normally we should not be incapable of protecting long enough for a guy to take a drop and step up and send the ball down the field. We aren’t talking about Hail Mary stuff here. Just deeper than red zone depth. Right now we don’t have the guy for that. Ours is slow to get back and when he does he needs time to turn his hips and get his feet set before he steps into the throw. or he has to bail out and concede one side of the field so he can get a run up to launch the ball down the half he left himself to work with. Seems like that is where most of the issue is with having that in the playbook. And trends. One thing thing about football trends is going too far with that leaves you open to be exploited somewhere else. As we always see eventually. Someone bucks the trend and it works. Now you have a new trend.

This is a quick reference that refreshes the memory bank. https://sogsports.com/greatest-nfl-tight-ends-of-all-time/ It doesn’t list their draft position or I didn’t see that but you bet some of these guys were not 1st round picks.

Open up the field to motivate the other side to defend more of it. We are so constrained without the threat of a quick strike.

I don’t know why that would happen when the team around Bryce has been showing progress. But with the Tepper factor guess it is on the table.

If he has already forgotten how Wilks went run heavy in 2022 to become more competitive, and the hubris that spawned, we may as well just figuratively shoot ourselves. edit: my hope would be if we do beat them with Andy playing it will be a different kind of reaction.

I can’t see how it would be wise to risk making the injury worse, so unless you had zero other options, you don’t put him on the field.

Too much to ask picking in the middle of the third round. Unless you are historically lucky. Hell you need luck in the 1st to get that. The devaluation of the position is hard for me to understand when I look at the difference great MLBs have made to defenses over the years. Defense needs a good QB too. MLB is the QB of the defense.

Even though Bryce does creep into nearly every discussion at some point, there is other stuff to engage with. If he was doing that I missed it.

Well you know, that ain’t my list but argument’s sake, wasn’t Daniel Jones a scout team player last season at one point? Wasn’t Baker that here at one point? Surely there will be some kind of path out of this, if ‘we’ decide want out.

The constant competition is something most positions go through but it seems like the QB is coddled . Like you, I prefer players prove it every day. Competition is like some kind of growth serum.

Lol. Our Dan and Dave could have written a better ending.

Good times.

If he is replacement level but you can’t find a replacement.. so you just pay him? I am surely hesitant I actually do like him as a person and the best thing would be a magical transformation. 10 games left for that.

That would definitely be a change. If the team manages to be competitive throughout the schedule then there is more interest in their product. Nobody cares about any of those feel good articles when are winning 4 games a year.

Bored. WTH. Let’s get on the same page, and understand the gravity of the charge: AI Overview A heinous person is someone who has committed acts that are shockingly evil, wicked, and morally reprehensible. This term is most often used to describe people who have committed extremely cruel or inhumane crimes, such as murder. The word "heinous" is formal and implies that the person or their actions deserve to be hated or met with contempt. Meaning: Extremely evil or wicked Examples: A person who commits a heinous crime is one who commits a horrific or monstrous act.

That or maybe he needs a round ball.

They can bounce pass. Maybe that is what Bryce is thinking sometimes.

Abs you can bet he and his ex teammates will discuss off the record too.

Cool. That 1st section on what the C does is why I felt like they did take the C in round 2 of 2024. They didn’t want a rookie with Young. I hope we get one. And we need to keep taking shots at guards so maybe we can avoid the extreme contracts for them down the line.
