I don’t dispute that but there also word about Fitterer from the year before at an event maybe the Supuer Bowl don’t remember. Kw I won’t rule out that he was just kissing Tepper’s ass with the Bryce support. It is all so weird and hard to understand. I mean how anyone could think he was worth that trade and the 1st overall, was something I couldn’t understand.

I misread that as this year. Thanks.

Never heard about the teammates thing but later I read him saying JR or Fox was having him monitored, followed around town something like that and he got pretty upset about it.

I think he is. I just don’t like discussing him as such.

Afraid so. The word in the question was excel wasn’t it? I guess I could say his passing charts are some of the most consistent in the league.

Like everyone else is probably fair but not in h the way I think you mean it. Because I for sure enjoyed the Dallas game more than any game in years. It was a great game. The winning record is pretty cool despite my belief that it is only a temporary situation. Being a game out of 1st in the division is also cool. But let’s be a little careful about counting our chickens and that definitely goes for Bryce Young too. Also watching the young guys contribute is satisfying. Lots of stuff. There is a saying ‘don’t let the good times fool you.’ I am not gonna get fooled.

Uh you can cut that down to 6 quarters. His first half against Miami was not too good.

It seems to be on par with using players as step stools to jump up and. block a kick and that sort of contrived bs.

I don’t know if I am. But I have read some good review s this year. I haven’t watched him close myself.this year. It is on my to do list. Last year I watched him closely like rewinding plays and stuff for three or four games and he was just not good. I couldn’t see what Dan must have seen in him at all. He has graded out high and people praise him so I figured he was gojng to be serviceable at least.

It used to be illegal. Should still be illegal. Not American football.

Yeah I was too lazy to go back and dig it all up but there was also some OL shuffling I think. .

Okay. Agree Obvious Measuring stick games should be included. Like going to Seattle and proving we could beat them there. Good enough. This isn’t any of that though.

Or, 43% of his starts he has put the team in a big hole to start the game. File under ‘I can make stats seem to prove almost anything’.

I would say that qualifies a player for an exhibit in the hall more than enshrinement. Like maybe the guy that threw the first forward pass or something. The first soccer style place kicker. Deserves credit for advancing the game. How he did playing his position is kind of linked but should count for more than he was the first to do something. IMO

Low bar. He will keep it and we know why. Anyway it is prove it time. He should be playing unless he is hurt.

They ought to be. If Dalton is playing without a cane he will probably smoke Bryce. He did in both week three games (when he was fresh).

I guess I am reaching but 7 games. would him playing against a couple of shitty tackles skew those numbers at least some? Some of these OTs need help regardless of who is across from them. I am sorry I am naturally skeptical about stats without real context

They already have it. Those injuries linger all year remember? He is in the playing hurt club now.

There haven’t been any big games. Is this like big time throws? I would argue strongly that there are no big time throws without big games. The definition of whatever they are quantifying is fuged. Even if it is his biggest game (why?) there isn’t anything big time about it. Elimination games in season. Clinching games in season. Post season playoff games. That is it as far as what big games are. I suppose a division showdown game could be considered big but that will likely fall into the elimination or clinching regular season bin. IMHO.

Yes. If Wallace was like the sidekick and not the star we wouldn’t be in that bad a shape. We need a clear upgrade over him. Next to him.

Given your handle maybe you would agree but I would take Smitty over Fitzgerald 7 days a week. Without looking at his numbers.

Twist the knife Joe. Gonna deny us our annual Andy game. Honestly I think it would be reckless to put him out there on a bum ankle. I haven’t seen Andy to be really confident (even though I correctly was just last year), but it also goes to who gives us the best chance to win question. I mean, since we are all about winning now.

We are the only people scared of him.

Yeah I am not passionate about this. And yea longevity counts for sure. Plenty of guys get left off because they didn’t sustain their level of play for enough years.

Good post. I am pretty much with Dallas being his ceiling. Consistent 4 quarter performance. He could produce more numbers in different scenarios but I don’t think he can play much better. If that makes any sense. He got an away lot of help though. I struggle to visualize that level of play overcoming a really good defense that shuts down the run game and puts it in his hands. Was hoping for more evidence on that this year.
