This production is terrible. How many times are they going to say Bryce made a great throw and then not show it. 

I stopped watching midway through. The interviews that I don't give a poo about, and the lack of consistently following the actual plays was too much. Catering to the casual fan way too much.

I’m aware not everyone is able to attend in person but fan fest is and always has been an in-person experience.

It’s also a pretty boring couple hours altogether so I can only imagine the torture of trying to stream it.

I will say last night was one of the better run and more exciting ones I’ve ever attended. Weather was perfect and the fireworks show at the end was top notch.

I get that but if you are gonna televise it you need to do a better job. 

I turned it on for about 5 minutes.  It was pointless to televise that.   Just put the interviews online.  A zoomed in view of the QB and then the announcers having to tell you everything that happened off screen is just dumb.

They did that after the 2015 season. Fireworks are always the best.

 

You should come to a Durham Bulls game on a Friday or Saturday if you love fireworks. It's legit 15-20 minutes long of ridiculous fireworks.

Little Q&A going on

 

Well we got some damn dawgs in the secondary so its not that surprising that our rookie QB isnt exactly slicing and dicing them right now.  Its good that Bryce gets to go up against them everyday though.

Camp is pretty dull in person. Not sure why people would expect it to be exciting on TV.

they don't allow filming at camp so it should go without saying they aren't going to broadcast in detail.

You guys are never happy 

I'm not unhappy lol.  I mean, they broadcast it.  It's just a comment on it. It doesn't work as a broadcast since they probably aren't allowed by the coach to show anything.    So it's just long wait periods in-between weak interviews vs what they can put out there.  Which those are fine. It's just a comment on the format and how it was done. 

If the intent is to stir up the fanbase and it turns off even the hardcore that will almost digest anything.... I would imagine the TV station had bad numbers.  That's it.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
