I think it was really obvious that Frank was not allowed to bench Bryce, and that Tepper believed he was ready to come in and start right away and wasn’t hearing any push back from Frank. The flap about the footwork that we heard about, was late in the game but it felt like there was a running feud over stuff like that. Tepper should have listened to Frank.

Can’t say I am looking forward to it

Free country bro. I don’t like the word. I don’t like a couple of other words. I get that they put themselves out there and make all the money and they need some thick skin. Just certain words, I don’t like when people casually drop them on someone, Like I said, say they suck, say any number of things, just certain words I feel are so demeaning they shouldn’t be used in the context of someone’s sports ability. If you steal rob rape murder, okay you can be called trash and a lot worse but if you can’t make a jump shot, I don’t like hearing it.

He was definitely the consolation prize for missing out on Milton Williams. I think he is here mostly because of Tillis’ KC history.

I guess not. Do we have enough guys to play?

I think those that got sucked back in weren’t ever really out. Anyhow, it is hard to downgrade a franchise record passing day. You just acknowledge it and look forward. I had a feeling the plan was pass against them because they are weakest in pass defense. I wasn’t sure what that would look like but I didn’t picture it being that bad. I didn’t picture 3 Ints and being bad enough to negate them. It was stupefying. For people touting his clutchness… and I thought he had some, he took the field knowing that a win puts his team in first place in the division. And completely folded.

Who the hell ever gets a 94? Damn Jaycee. Rico got like 77 for putting up well over 200 yards rushing.

That’s been going on a long time. Trash, especially. I always hate seeing people called trash. I never understood why white trash didn’t cause more outrage as far as that goes. But just trash about anyone because of how they play always really bothered me. Say they suck, I am fine with it.

“Stay with me, stay with me”

And that is a good point about the high balls. He has to angle them up so much and there is only so much real estate for ‘re-entry’. It doesn’t get back down quick enough. Unless you really float it and then you let defenders back into the play. edit this might be the scenario Gettleman dreamt of, with the really tall WRs.

I think yes absolutely that was the mandate. He wasn’t hiring someone like Frank that said they couldn’t fix him. I am gonna parse it the way I would discuss it with him, and that would be hey you know this is a tall order. I know what I am doing and will do my best and if he listens and does the work I can help him. But I can’t promise miracles and if he turns out to be a lost cause don’t blame me for it.

Said it before, I avoided his articles, interviews, pressers, all of it for a long time because I don’t want it personalized. I mean I knew nothing about him when I ‘scouted’ him and came to the ‘aw hell no’ conclusion in less than an hour. But you can’t avoid it forever, and I came to learn that he has great character afa I can tell, is a really good kid, and if he could play I would absolutely be a huge fan. God gave him everything but that NFL player gift. Sorry Bryce I can’t do it.

It is brutal alright. I hope we won’t argue over degrees of GTFO.

I would be more generous than that, and have never wanted anything to do with him. Poison pill that he is. I probably give maybe 4 actual good games and about the same number of okay, not his usual lose the game for us games. Out of 40.

this is true but like Bryce, a little mediocrity seems like a huge win. We could have and probably, no definitely, would have lost a couple of those ugly game in recent seasons. Apart from the specifics of the offense and the QB dysfunction, the team won those games. That is progress.

Get a guy that can run play action and has an arm. We’ll be ahead of where we are now week one.

Yeah, we are finding our level though. I would be surprised if we get 8 wins.

I thought Bryce did his job in the Dallas game for 4 quarters. He was not asked to do much but he did what he was asked. Then the Atlanta game where he was very good. I refused to crucify him for the Green Bay game despite his sub par ness not because we won, but primarily because of the horrible conditions. Canales was rightfully conservative I thought, when taking the ball out of his hands. I don’t have much else positive to say for him, he ain’t it.

If we needed to, usually an appeal allows him to play this week. might be better if the other guys are gonna be out.

I find the idea that Canales is the best we could do, valid. A lot of the reason for that is Bryce. You have to be desperate to accept that situation. Remove Bryce and dangle the opportunity to bring your own QB in, I think the candidate field expands.

So absent support for that, you decide we can’t upgrade from Bryce next year because no one else is going be better? If I mischaracterized what you just posted, apologies. But I find that unacceptable. To me this is ‘make a move even if it’s wrong’ time. We have have to do something different.

If a single one of them talks about Bryce staying with another coach, they are as wrong as wrong gets.

Me too. It was horrible and really is what is behind my nasty attitude and resentment towards the stans. Cancel culture nastiness from them on any questioning of the kid, or their SEC, Alabama, processor, point guard arm strength, mechanics, narratives. It didn’t matter what you had to show them. Didn’t want to hear it. No Negativity allowed. Go find another team to root for lol. idiot. Hater. Racist even. Despite wanting CJ lol.

It was already full retard the minute they decided to give all those picks up. It became criminal when you trade the WR that could help your young QB away. On a good contract too. WTF are you doing?
