Boy, never realized just how monotonous Trevor is until this interview lol. Sounded bored as poo but then again it is the HoF game so I can see it.

His pre-draft interviews were super bland as well, he said things like "he's not obsessed with football" and "doesn't need football to make me feel worthy as a person". I understand where he was going on a certain level but most of these young dudes fighting for roster spots don't have that luxury

they didnt give him his 5th either.... i think they are showcasing him and shopping him 

The Raiders understand that you don't give second contracts to running backs. New England was always running back by committee and I expect McDaniels will use the same approach in Las Vegas. Jacobs needs a good year and then he will sign elsewhere in free agency.

I'm still of the belief that Brady made the RB by committee easy for NE because you had a QB that would bail you out of 3rd and 7 no worries. Im not a McDaniels believer so that probably has something to do with it.

    • 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.
