I know after yesterday… but I have a feeling we beat the Saints at their place. Somehow. Maybe even beat SF. They are hurting. But it is hard to look at this QB and feel any confidence, so maybe we lose out.

And I bet he would make him better.

Pretty epic. Someone gave me a pie back about a third of the way through this morning and I didn’t realize even what thread it was for a couple of pages; ended up reading most of it again for the hell of it.

That doesn’t sound insane, they severely neglected the defense the better part of three years. I think you have to go back to Horn to find an investment over the 3rd round until last year. It was pillaged for two solid years and I am not complaining about Tet but we could have traded down and invested in that defense this last draft but it went to offense.

Thanks yeah they explained the punt block ruling pretty well on radio, except I missed the part that you filled in about the who and where of the block and touching.

Why can’t you get it through your head that Bryce does not possess the ability or attributes of the two people you try to compare him to? I am pretty sure there are no brownie points bro. I am not playing to anyone, my views were very unpopular but have not changed since 2023 pre draft. It is what it is. Also please explain how I twisted your words.

I said top five but to me he is easily the number one most obvious fail, before being drafted. You could make cases for most of the other guys that come to mind. Not him, in my book. There was no reason to believe.

Remember the Twilight Zone episode where Wally Cox played the scientist that fell in love with his computer? Bingo. But Wally Cox was much nicer and didn’t belittle people making counter claims.

I am down for that too. Mainly because I place a super high value on continuity and want to exhaust every option before turning a staff over again. It stunts the young player development, makes guys not fit the new regime’s standard, all that stuff.

The excuses, keep on coming. None of it is related to his diminutive size and the suspect arm that requires attention to the mechanics and footwork to operate at a competitive level. I hope one day he proves all of us wrong so you can look better but right now you just look like a guy in denial.

I have seen where people say he makes great throws in practice. But then he has always looked good in shorts and with no contact. It is a different thing when he is worried about being hit. Just a little bit more challenging.

Mayfield and Darnold should be exempt from Bryce comparisons. They have the tools and physical measurables that he lacks. It is apples to oranges. Bryce has no comps really, if he is to succeed he will be the first of his line to do it. The closest comp I have been able to find is Flutie who was practically identical in height and weight, but with a much stronger arm and I am pretty sure more mobility also, but different era. The arm advantage can’t really be argued, so the comp breaks down. I don’t know how saying that is hate. It is just reality. Not that you specifically said it was hate but the general theme is if you don’t believe in his abilities and say so, it is hate. I will tell you, I have hated 90% of the last three seasons with him at QB but if he did well, and could sustain that, I don’t think I would snipe at him.

That was me. Overall it has tightened up. Kickoffs are good. FGs are good normally. Punting game is good. PR isn’t bad. I didn’t see what happened on the block, who let the guy through. I knew we were putting a couple of new guys out there but thought they we gunner types. Chisena.

He dooms us to probably a losing record. Haven’t we had enough of that? Take a chance. Houston’s backup killed it yesterday. There are other backups around the league better than Bryce. They couldn’t be that expensive to acquire. Jake was a backup put on a good team.

Lol on an offense with Corbett, XL, Sanders. I know we are past the 1.1 expectations. But he is supposed to make guys better; he maybe did that with a washed AT and that’s it.

No sooner than the ball was put in his hands to do something with, it went south. Aside from trying to get wide in the run game, I don’t know what Canales could have done. The game was 3 points, and the main goal was to keep it there at that point and the way that was done was not put it on Bryce. Just keep pounding the line and hope something breaks, hope the defense makes a play, etc. All better than trusting BY9 to make something happen. Now I am no OC/XO guy that is just the layman’s perspective. And I was watching on radio. So, blind. Luke did say they need to get out wide and see if they could make the corner

He played well for the whole game. It wasn’t any of the suck for three quarters and do just enough to win. The worst or almost worst defense in tne league. You get into the middle rankings, nope.

I thought that we would see that a good bit and on downfield routes.

Yeah I was complaining about that too in the latest round of Bryce debates last week. He isn’t doing anyone any favors.

None so blind as those who will not see. They don’t want to see. Is it a ‘safe space thing? Who knows…. Dallas was his ceiling, and he has not been able to raise his floor.

None so blind as

Nothing could be much worse than yesterday. Canales hid him as long as he could. As soon as he asked him to do something the floodgates opened. I was thinking just hold auditions every week.

Yeah this was predictable too. It likely won’t change much until we get a different QB.

The situation with the quarterback muddies the waters. I am sort of where I was on Bryce which is remove the excuses and let him show what he is. I hate to say I think we know but thinking and knowing can be a little different.

I don’t think I’d want him if he were cheap but with that contract? Hell no.
