“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.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
