If someone, ANYONE, could fill that WR2 position, that would push Funchess to the slot and we would be deadly.

​That's not really how it works. Funchess will line up in the slot regardless of whoever could go outside. He plays all the wideout positions and will be moved around based on the package. Philly showed last year he is capable of playing the Z receiver spot and the slot, so I see him and Funch moving around a lot. It's not as simple as "WR1 and WR2 are outside and WR3 is in the slot."

​Someone should break that down.

If Hill has turned the corner....and Brown continues to develop, the WR corp of KB, Funchess, Ginn, Hill, and Brown would be something very fun to watch.

Is it September yet? Hell, I'd settle for it being July and TC.  This poo is going to be fun on so many different levels. 

I gotta feeling that the NFL has no idea what's getting ready to hit them.

Hopefully Hill looked better than that photo portrays

​If you look at his photo from last season on the team website, his eyes were off the ball in air.  Here, the same thing.  That seems to be his problem, but I can only assume.

      Scott Fowler on Bryce Young

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      I'm not disagreeing with anything that you said here.  I personally feel he should be doing better,  although the fact remains,  he didn't have to carry the team, and right now, I don't believe anybody really ants the team to be in position for him to have to carry it.

      Bryce is still the future

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Understand that I am not suggesting that we have only one option or that Bryce young is the future---It seems people on discussions boards are all black or all white--most of this is gray, but they showed his (albeit a small sample) stats before and after the benching on TV--and there was improvement---and the defense was not on the field--at the time--so you make some statements that are nice talking points, but not based on fact.  I realize you felt the need to pound your chest, but if we are going to discuss players, be truthful and not emotional, especially when you make statements to support your assumption.  There is no doubt that Bryce has been releasing the ball sooner, throwing it downfield more, and going through his progressions with more confidence.  While I realize a defense gives the QB more opportunities and better field position, all QBs have defenses.  My attempt is not to praise or belittle, but to look for truths that will help us/me see the direction this club will go.  If the experts thought he was not improving or that he was done, they would not play him the rest of the season as you suggest.  There are 52 other players on this roster, and if you lose them and hurt their stats by proving a pointless point about your QB, you demonstrate that you do not know how a team operates.  Could Bryce improve?  It is possible--regardless of how certain you are now.  Can he improve enough?  I doubt it, but I have seen stranger things happen.  Yes, your opinion is widely accepted, but there is no need to makes unsubstantiated statements or embellish his stats.  In the past 2 games, he is showing statistical improvement--they showed the graph on TV.  The after was not great, and the before was terrible.
