Enough with the crying that we took Bryce over Stroud. We need to be talking Ickey over Cross

We aren't giving him any help.  No TEs in-line, very limited RBs in pass protecting. The Texans were bringing overloaded or delayed pressure.  Ickey has struggled, but he can only block one dude and the defense routinely brought two guys from that side.

Sorry, but that’s not true. Houston was just rushing 4 most times. That last sack by Bernard was one on one with no stunts, no delay, no overload, just Mano a Mano. All Bernard did was smack away Iky’s hands and run right over Young. That was just an awful attempt to block Bernard.

Iky has regressed this year and has had terrible moments since preseason game 1. He has to improve or he’s not a LT and we whiffed. Garrett Wilson would have been nice for Young.

Yes, that one I agree.  But if you are saying that they were just beating us with 4 and keeping 7 back, that's hogwash.

Was just speaking on Iky’s failures. He’s just getting beat one on one. He’s getting beat on other stunts too, but he almost looks un-salvageable. He’s certainly not learning from the mistakes but he also appears to just be plain getting beat. That’s not really fixable.

Icky was pretty damn solid last year. We'll see if he bounces back.

They have him playing in the wrong scheme. He isn’t a finesse zone blocking LT. It falls on Frank for not playing to his players strengths IMO. We had a decent OL for a power running PA offense with man on man blocking, but he is forcing his offense without the players to run it.

    • lol It's 2 games in with a broken QB it's too early to tell. I hope Canales works out but this is still funny.
    • Man there truly is no helping the stupid that litters this place 
    • This backlash has truly been sad and was part of the reason I believe Bryce was drafted in the first place. He was small and looked like a kid and everybody just loved that he was also good at football. Once I heard CJ Stroud talking on his podcast tour this summer, I was like well that is the reason he isn't here. I remember the hatred for Cam that basically arose out of him being a massive, confident, black man. Every time a new broadcast crew met him during warmups the telecast was just about how larger than life he was. I even had a friend who is close to Cam's size talk about him sucking the air out of every room goes into like being big, loud, and confident is a bad thing. And many here along with the media never showed any sympathy, empathy, or a second thought to the shite Cam had to put up with while here. Till this day it is either about the stupid fumble that didn't matter that he didn't jump on, or that he only had like one good year.  So to see this crazy backlash from the sports and social media regarding Canales benching a small, weak, entitled, non verbal QB who is playing terrible, struggling to recognize defenses, missing open WRs, and leaving clean pockets is mind blowing! Only Chase Daniels watched the film before talking this week. Everyone else used it as an opportunity pine for Bryce and crap on organization. Again, I hope someone is dumb enough to give us Josh Rosen compensation for him.
