Not even to explain why it was called and how to avoid getting another flag like it? Ok coach

It was called because of referee incompetence.  Avoid getting another flag like it by doing exactly what you did because it was a good, clean play.  There you go. 

The thought of coaches wasting valuable practice time discussing how to avoid bad officiating is just about the most pointless endeavor I can imagine.

He didn't do anything wrong on that play. What do you want him to tell him? "Brian, maybe don't rush the QB next time."

I stood right there screaming from the rooftops this was a bad call but... it really wasnt. 

Panthers in their mic'd up video they posted of Luvu showed an angle I hadn't seen where its pretty obvious Burns hits the QB in the facemask/neck area which would be a penalty. 

I think its a soft call but could at least understand why that flag was thrown.

And this, I've seen worse not get called but hard to argue with these angles

this is the annoying BS.  Where they pretend like a problem was evident beforehand. 

Baker and Elflien fumbled the exchange in the preseason game.  When they were fumbling the exchange on Sunday it was live tweeted that they had issues in practice leading up the Browns game with it. 

Baker didn't get starter reps.  And he often was paired up with Bozeman and not working w/ the same center. 

and it was so evident we talked specifically about the exchange issue and how it likely could be a problem as the season started.

    • Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.
    • Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on. 
    • Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
