Pejorative Miscreant

Thank you for the rationally and thoughtful post. What you say makes total sense. Are you new here?

You could just repost this statement in about 80-90% of all threads and it would track.

There is no tongue biting on The Google. If you sit him 3-4 games the narrative is why trade up to the number 1 pick if he is not ready and you dont want to play him. Pitchforks would be out for Reich and Fitt. Then when he gets in week 4 and makes a rookie mistake we would be having this same conversation. Same level of misery, just in a different bucket. I personally prefer to watch his progression week to week rather than manufacturing a crisis on every miscue.

When he was traded last year I think there was talk about him no being comfortable talking. He could be totally done as others said but I do think it’s in his nature to be aloof.

Memories are short when the predictions are incorrect.

Is it me, or does comparing a rookies performance playing in his first game, to the body of work of arguably the greatest QB of all time seem a wee bit irrational? Are we really talking about 6 GOAT playoff games when the kid hasn't played 6 quarters of football yet? People already on the Bryce bust train may end up being correct, but I think 4 quarters of football is not enough to draw conclusions.

Yes. Not sure it would be a method I would choose but I’m an old ass man and not a 25 year old star that grew up with social media. He is showing up to work and doing his job so who am I to judge.

It’s the vocal keyboard minority I believe. Just accumulating the negative.

Game comes down to the QB that makes the fewest mistakes and our beloved Rookie will not be rattled dammit! 27-20 is my pick.

I feel good about the team and will feel better if they win Sunday. They will still have a lot to prove though. I can’t go into game one miserable. Still 16 more to go.

Yep. This sums it up nicely. I know people talk about honor and morals but at the end of the day it’s about maximizing wealth.

Scarcity is a real thing and whether you like it or not there is a premium on pass rushers. He will get a large sum and people will complain but it’s just the nature of the business. Good for BB.

What's his Huddle handle?

We will never know but I think fitt got hired he read the room, saw the train wreck and went with it. Probably didn’t sabotage rhule but simply let Rhule hang himself. that said I don’t know how much I blame fitt for draft picks but am willing to give him benefit of the doubt

Pretty accurate. He should Take the 200k PS position, work and hope for the best. There are worse things in life than being in your 20s and making that kind of bank.

Gotta keep the tradition alive somewhere.

Now that bumper pool is gone we need to fill the void. Not sayin cool names are a position of need, just sayin.

I see this thread and wonder if I missed half the football season. It seems like only yesterday we were debating rational things from the preseason such as Ickey being a bust and black balling linemen from NC A&T.

You think whipping out a quick list of JAGs is gonna change minds or something???

I think many of the yards gained by S Brown were against sub par talent. Preseason stats are not in and of themselves a way to fully evaluate talent. Bumper Pool was in on a lot of tackles and I believe Coral was the most productive passer to put it in some context.

There is a lot of disdain for Hubbard. He has the albatross of being "Rhule's wife's draftpick" and I think that is in the back of our mind's when evaluating. He is not great but is quite serviceable and what he does. From an eyeball test, he probably needs to improve in many areas but he is a solid runner. If the coaches can do better with other team's castoffs then fine.
