At this point why is DA over Webb?

DA has been on the decline for years now. 'b-b-b-but he won against Tampa', no the defense and the rest of the team won against Tampa. DA came along for the ride.  I've seem a steady decline in his game and an increase in Webbs play for a while now. Webb is a special teams ace but I think it's time to give him more of a back up role and cut DA.

Well, maybe y'all are right, but this is one game---another game against second and third stringers. 

You guys can fool yourselves about Webb all you like, but his decision making is on par at best with DA's, and he's still not as good of a passer. Put him in against the starters and you'll see the imperfect web he weaves.

So what you're saying is no, he's not getting cut.. 

I'm not completely ruling it out. But he's a Rivera favorite, he knows the offense, and with the questions about Cam's shoulder, that's even more incentive to keep him around. Honestly that game sealing INT at the end of the Bucs game at home last year should have been enough to set in motion the task of looking for his replacement. We had the opportunity in the offseason, it's too little too late now unless we just promote Webb.

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
