We could have had Justin Jefferson or CeeDee Lamb instead of Derrick Brown. One of our worst first round picks in franchise history considering how good of a class that was.

CeeDee was on our short list of 4 night of the draft

Then again so was CJ Henderson but yeah

Not a single sack today by the entire defense. 
 

Derrick Brown - 2 tackles. At least burns put up a tackle for a loss. 
 

Ton of injuries and the entire defense has declined each and every game. But sure just pile on Burns just because our GM is an idiot.

Phins also out 2 starters today on the OL.  Including the LT who Burns saw

I've defended Burns but honestly I've been disappointed in not only his awful at times play but his piss poor leadership and decision making. I get being disgruntled with the FO because they are inept imbeciles but he's not going to get himself paid elite money anywhere with his flip flop act of talking all big in training camp about being a leader and then becoming Oscar the Grouch and getting mowed down by randos on crucial plays. If you want to be paid to be the guy on defense while the rookie QB is taking all the heat you need to show something. All he's showing other teams is he's a flake and takes plays off.

Why we are treating Burns as an untouchable is beyond me.  Patrick Mahommes is off limits for trade.  That makes sense.  Burns though?  I simply don't get it.

I could see if he was a dominant force, like TJ Watt or prime Khalil Mack, but this guy is not that.

He was very ineffective today.  Can't have too many of those in a contract year.

He came out in the Atlanta game with a huge chip on his shoulders and balled out for the first quarter.  Burns has been barely a blimp on the radar since then.

    • 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.
