Are you really saying that is “cope”? The throw in the terrible weather hit AT in the hands. AT will be the first to tell you he should have caught that. Plenty of other things to attack Young on if you want. That’s not really one. 

Okay, so a completion is two steps: the pass and the catch.  The attempted catch WAS possible, but to dismiss a sh!tty throw is crazy.  Does Adam drop it if not thrown behind him and low to the ground?  My answer is not likely.  Funny I am saying, yes, Thielen could have caught this, but the blame is purely one sided and the accuracy--the lack of--is taken completely out of the equation.

You are only criticizing the board, posters, and contributing nothing.  Deal with it.  If that's all you're going to do, then this is what you're going to get.

The board is garbage and it isn't because the team is losing. Active moderators have made it abundantly clear that we're not allowed to discuss the Panthers without whining, derailing threads, or making little zingers about BY9.

Maybe holding shitposters accountable would bring the clicks back, but that'd require the biggest shitposter to be demodded. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That is the problem. We traded a mint for him, yet he is so physically limited that we make these kinds of excuses for him. Unless he has a perfect pocket and playmakers all around him, we allow putrid play?

Trust me, I've never made excuses for Bryce this year, I think he's a complete bust and we're going to be drafting his replacement in 2025.

But in that kind of weather, even the best QB's of all time sometimes have the ball slip out of their hand as they're throwing a pass.  And I only saw the pass once, didn't see a replay, but to me on an initial glance, it just looked like the ball slipped as he was throwing it, not his noodle arm throwing up a dead duck like does plenty of other times all on his own.

Sometimes there are just legitimate reasons for something happening, not finding excuses for them.

He slid for it and it bounced off his hands. I’m just saying they are much easier battles to fight against Young.

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
