I missed it. Yes, please. Someone that has this DVR'd clip it. Just post a damn video off your phone. I want to see this. I just wonder if it's actually sinking in or if they're still in the blame everyone else stage? How long can that stage possibly last?

We'll probably trade him for a mid-round pick and watch him turn into a perennial All-Pro elsewhere. Face it, folks. We've just become a farm team for the rest of the league. They pick off our decent players via FA or below market trade value and leave us with the scraps of the roster for them to continue evaluating. Thanks David Tepper.

And just like that D'Andre Swift gets absolutely baptized and he's down. What are the Eagles doing? This game is over but you're still 10-2. Wave the white flag and live to fight another day.

It's dumb that the Eagles still have their offensive starters in. The Niners have pulled a lot of their defensive starters.

Damn. This is a straight up blowout. 42-19

If he's not ready it's because he's never gonna be ready. It's not like he was some raw talent upside pick. His draft value was based on being a plug and play super processor while the knock on him was that he might already be at his physical ceiling based on his talent. I just don't understand how folks can see it elsewhere, but ignore it at Bama. Guys like Stetson Bennett and Jake Fromm are seen for what they are - really good college QBs who probably won't translate to the NFL and are largely products of the surrounding talent and systems. Yet with Bryce folks convinced themselves that this 5'10" noodle arm was making chicken salad out of chicken poo at Alabama like he was playing at ECU or something. GTFO of here. This dude fooled everyone. Well, he didn't fool me. I took a lot of heat last off-season for warning that this guy has marginal NFL physical talent.

Well... fug.

Alright Bryce, here's your chance. Let's see it. Prove me wrong. fug, PLEASE prove me wrong.

Nah. They've been living off of lucky breaks and eeking out close wins. Eventually the horseshoe has to fall out of their ass. It's not sustainable.

That's the best play Bryce has made all year.

How is Matt Rhule's wife's pick our best offensive player?

The receivers usually had 3-4 yards of separation and the OL gave him time. People talk about Bama being "down" his final year, but a down Bama is still a top 10 college roster. This narrative that Bryce was making chicken salad out of chicken poo at ALA-fuging-BAMA was always absurd.

Oh Jesus. Why they showing Methany on the TV?

Looks like Burns is gonna go ahead and bow out.

Damn. That was a baller ass TD by Evans

The Niners are kicking the Eagles ass.

All I'm saying is that if I'm interviewing for a HC gig I don't want to be tied to someone else's QB who looks to have marginal NFL talent. We'll give it a go next year but if it doesn't go well we need to have a serious conversation about the future at QB.

But is Tepper gonna fire you for failing to fix his QB?

Fromm had 8000+ yards with a 78:18 TD:INT ratio. Stetson Bennett had 8000+ yards with a 66:21 INT:TD ratio. No one tried to argue they were much as NFL prospects but it's just absurd revisionist history to try to act like they weren't good college QBs. They were top 10 college QBs during their careers. I mean, if you're getting drafted you're a good college QB. The vast majority aren't getting drafted. Hell, there's good college QBs that don't get drafted every year.

Oh good grief, this is a horrific take. Stetson Bennett and Jake Fromm weren't great NFL prospects but those guys were damn good college QBs.

If it wasn't for the check I honestly doubt they'd go. I'll be surprised if they have any draftable draft eligible guys suit up. NFL evaluators don't care what you did against Liberty. They wanna see what you did against Washington, against Utah, against Oregon State. They wanna see you up against guys who are at least going to be in NFL training camps.

If I'm interviewing for this gig I'm not taking it if I'm married to Bryce. Like look, I get it based on the investment already made and lack of immediate draft resources we need to try to put the best team we can around Bryce and give it a go next year. But it absolutely needs to be an evaluation year on whether or not we need to be back in the QB market again in '25. If Tepper balks at that or seems at all hesitant I'm out.

Sounds like a likely Gator Bowl bid for UNC. Probably vs. Tennessee. Mack Brown will brag about how good 8-4 and a Gator Bowl appearance is for this program while ignoring that all of his teams have face planted in the second half of the season. It's not okay to be a better team at the beginning of the season than you are at the end of the season year after year after year. It's gonna happen occasionally but it can't be the norm. Drake Maye needs to be done. He's done enough for this program turning down mid-seven figure NIL deals from blue blood powerhouses to come back to Chapel Hill for this poo.

Yeah, it's not gonna be a fair fight. No one at Oregon gives a fug about playing Liberty but for Liberty this is a game they'll be telling their grandkids about. This bowl draw is a massive letdown for Oregon after being a playoff contender with a Heisman hopeful QB.

This. We're all in on Bryce for at least another year and that's going to significantly impact our head coaching search.
