“Docs are saying 1-2 weeks” would be sharing what they are saying. This is why it gets difficult to take you seriously on this stuff…. If you can’t accept a quote from the guy stating what doctors are saying as him telling us what doctors  you are in some sort of denial.

it’s all bullshitty coach speak.   You choose to selectively treat certain things as some sort of gospel.   Frank specifically says little for a reason.  You aren’t suppose to know what is going on and in house.  All teams paint all sorts of narratives on everything big and small. 

I’m a Bryce guy.  I a want him to be successful.  Giving him a breather was the first smart thing I have seen Frank do.  And I hope he plays Dalton again this week.  Because I don’t think Frank is close to solving the mess around the QB yet.    He needs to do that.   We are currently a place more suited to derail Bryce than grow him present day.

I’m just showing you where he referred to the doctors. You know like you said he NEVER did. So you are calling it bullshit coach speak when he mentions things you are claiming he didn’t mention. Damned if you do damned if you don’t I suppose.

Thats great you are a Bryce guy. He wasn’t my top choice but as soon as Carolina drafted him I hoped and continue to hope he does great. There was a lot to like from his college tape.

I said it was never just about waiting on the doctors.  He has repeatedly spoken about it’s not just about them giving a thumbs up.  Which is why the reporter tried to get some more info on the 3 prong mantra.  Where the doctor ends and he and Bryce begins.  And wasn’t giving it. 
 

My preference was Stroud.  But I could accept Bryce or Richardson   But they have done a poor job if Bryce was the pick around him.  Which is my primary issue.   Has been since before the season started and it has gone as I predicted.   Talent doesn’t suit his skill set and what he will want to do.  Defenses are going to sit on the small ball and people will then get mad at Bryce.   Called it all. And that’s not really his fault.   We don’t have the players to play small ball with defenses playing a rookie in that manner.  And that’s going to be Bryce’s game.  Always was.

    • Well we won 5 games and it took the worst defense in NFL history to do that.  IF we can stay relatively healthy and Bryce plays just like he did (not even saying better) after the benching you could arguably debate 9-10 wins. I wouldn't hold my breath but I wouldn't be shocked.  The defensive improvement should be remarkable actually. Same corners, new dline, DB's return, updated safeties, same LB's ...+ the Dline's improvement should make every position about 25% better. If that's good enough to stop atleast 2 touchdowns more than we were able to last season then yea we're about to suprise alot of people imho. 
    • The Sanders family's problem is that they raised Shedeur to have the exact same mindset and persona as Deion, and then used Deion as the example as to why it's not a problem.  Even in that public interview at the combine, he gave some answer like, "do you know who my dad was and the things they said about him and he was still a HOFer?" The problem is his dad was a CB and sometimes a WR, the two positions in the NFL where not only nobody cares if you have that outward persona, in many cases it's something teams look for because WRs and CBs need to have that mentality out there on an island. His interview answer that's been going around about where you see yourself in 5 years, and his response of being Mayor of that town and laughing is a perfect example of it. There is no issue if that's your QB's mentality, we all know how Cam was.  The problem is there is a different between mentality and outward persona, and that just flat out doesn't work for a QB to have that persona, Cam didn't even do it. There are a lot of QB's who have that mindset, in particular, Burrow right now strikes me as that kind of guy.  But he still knows how to flip that QB Switch and tones it back when speaking publicly and is able to be the face of the franchise. Shedeur and Deion never seemed to grasp that for some reason, and it's a problem. Have you ever heard reports of GM's being asked by defensive players on their team to draft a QB solely because they wanted to crush them in practice? That's wild to even think of, let alone hear about actually happening.  QB is unlike any position in all of sports, whether fair or not, you have to act differently when speaking in public or on camera, and Shedeur just doesn't, if anything, he leans even more into his Deion like persona.
