“Your honor may I present exhibit B”

We have replaced 4 of the 5 starters from this time last year.  The only one left is Moton.  We also greatly upgraded our oline coach.  You're delusional if you think it's the same line as last year.

Are you suggesting we play Ickey at guard with that statement? He will be the LT week 1. Not sure why there would be any doubt by anyone here.

Could it be because BC sat behind, literally, the worst starting oline players in the fuging league only for Rhule’s fat 10 million dollar ass to admit he should’ve played him more after the season was over when meanwhile all us beer bellied fans were all screaming midseason to stop the idiocy?

seriously wtf are you even taking about?

Icky will start at LT if he’s ready, if he’s not Brady will.  Rhule needs to win to keep his job, and if the rookie isn’t ready to keep Baker clean then they need to go with the bpa.  There is a learning curve to playing in the NFL, Evan Neal (playing RT) is getting beat like a drum in Giants camp.  It’s still early, let’s see how Icky looks by preseason game 3..

So, according to the huddle, BC is a Canton-bound franchise LT, and we're not mad that we drafted Ickey, but we're mad because he's not getting all the precious 1st string reps ahead of our incumbent franchise LT? 

It's confusing. Can we just stick to calling Matt Rhule fat?

I must have missed that vote.  I've not seen one person proclaim anything close to resembling that claim. 

All I've said is that either he's showing he's able to do a good job there or the rookie isn't ready. From the looks of it it's both. But whatever.

From the article...

 

“To me, Ickey’s a rookie. He’s gotta earn everything he gets, and he’s got a long way to go,” Rhule said. “He does some things really well naturally. He’s unbelievably powerful and talented. But there’s a lot to this game. There’s a lot of nuances and techniques and all those things. He has a long way to go. He’ll get there, but every day he’s gotta work.”

Spoken like a guy who came right out of college and became a Head Coach... hypocrite.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
