  1. I still have my doubts on the Green Bay touchdown. You can clearly see his momentum stopped well short of the ball breaking the goal line and actually goes backwards; then somehow he's able to advance the ball with both hands up in the air and at least two players on top of his lower back. Unless he's levitating, that leverage had to come from somewhere between his upper chest and his feet. I would say a knee (or two) is a good candidate.
  2. While I was aware that Horn does not shadow WR1 I learned something interesting in the game from one of the announcers ... Horn ALWAYS plays the short side of the field. As in, he will switch sides when the ball moves from one hash tag to the other. It seems intuitive that short side of field equals easier route coverage (correct me if I'm wrong) and expanding further I wonder if Mike Jackson was put into that role would his stats improve? If Horn is such a shut down corner, why isn't he just following the biggest WR threat around the field? Is there something inherently harder about covering the short side of the field? Why make life easier for your best CB?
  3. Sorry, I just don't accept that as true. Putting your best foot forward is way different than trying to cheat.
  4. I think he is saying that Bryce materially misrepresented himself during the draft process so, in fact, he is at least partly to blame for be over drafted. IOW. Bryce gamed the system like a con man and should be held accountable for it.
  5. Chubba got paid. Rico is going to get paid. Don't pay a running back.
  6. Hard to say. Hot take : We won today because of Bryce - but not in the way that sounds. Bryce forced us to lean heavily on Rico and the Defense. A Better QB probably changes our game plan and makes us less competitive against a very good GB team playing at home.
  7. You are not wrong. But you are also under-valuing a Win. Every game we have won in the last three years has been despite Bryce, and he has to go. But losing only teaches the team how to lose.
  8. Yes. It's the oldest adage in Football. Repeat after me: "Winning solves everything"
  9. The Long snapper had more to do with this win than Bryce
  10. I agree. I think the huddle is too hard on Evero. His entire defensive plan is to get the other team into the red zone so he can hold them to a field goal. I think we are a safety and a off ball linebacker away from a truly elite defense and hopefully they open the purse for him in the next FA and Draft.
  11. explain to me how his knees where not down with 500+ lbs. on his back
  12. This. Size and speed are irrelevant if you can't also deploy leverage. As an example if it were just size and strength for offensive linemen then the NFL would look like this : https://www.theworldsstrongestman.com/athletes/ Most guys just can't football.
  13. There is a scenario where our team comes out prepared to play football instead of shitting the bed for the first quarter. Every bad Bryce game seems to start with him looking incompetent - the OL looking incompetent - and the defense looking incompetent. Boom, down 14 before we know what hit us. Imagine a world where we come prepared and play with a lead, and Bryce gets to fulfill his ceiling by managing a game instead of playing catch up. He's bad, but upon reflection he is not Clausen bad. He can move the team down the field when he gets 4 - 5 seconds in a clean pocket against a soft zone. I don't think Clausen could do that.
  14. He's Bryce. Anything 10+ yards is either a 50/50 ball or 2 yards Out of Bounds
  15. I feel like we saw his ceiling when he returned to the starting line up last season - and although he was much improved he still was not the reason we won games, but at least he wasn't the reason we lost them. He was the same QB at Alabama. On his best days he was a game manager but he was never going to drive the field with 1 minute left in the game and make any hero plays. People keep saying how that Alabama team lacked talent. No, they lacked a first round worth QB. It was Bryce who finally made Alabama look beatable after dominating for over a decade. How the scouts missed this is beyond me.
  16. But think of the poor victims! You know, those other high schools in the conference that don't have a former pro-bowl QB as an alumni. Seriously though, $100k per season seems like a big spend - even for someone with his money. Good on him.
  17. If Tepper put his net worth in 10 year treasuries he'd be pulling in about $2.3 million in interest every day. Maybe he told Morgan - "here's a days interest, now go get me 10 UDFA's".
  18. I'm usually on my way to the refrigerator when the kickers coming onto the field, but I'm also old enough to remember when a 45 yard attempt was automatic points.
  19. Just lose already texas, the other game is on
