They made a really good point towards the end of the video. Basically stating that if Grier doesn't have a decent game that shows he can maybe develop into something, he may very well not be in the roster next year. 

To that, really two games isn't enough to see what he's got. I agree with most of what they said, he did look uncomfortable and apparently had 52 drop backs. That's insane for a rookie that you're trying to ease in. Then DJ moore going down definitely didn't help and well the O-line losing a lot of the battles, the special teams not stopping Hines and having to work from behind. No I am not making excuses for the kid, just a lot things stacked against him and him being very uncomfortable in there. First game jitters I suppose. Still, small sample size. We'll see what happens this Sunday. 

 

We'll see what he does come Sunday.

He may not make the final roster next season, but he is definitely going to camp with the team.

edit: I do think he'll be on the roster next season, but a lot depends on the new coach, what they do with Cam, what we pick up in the draft and FA etc.  Allen and Grier could both be on another team next year.

He played one game, and he is on the worst team in the NFL.  And yes, we are currently the worst team in the league.  

Currently the standings say there are at least 7 worse teams by record. Are we going by your personal subjective feelings or the objective measures of record/point differential that most people use?

    • 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.
