Today I saw a guy that didn’t read the defense, didn’t identify hot reads on the blitz and missed wide open WRs badly.  It’s his worse game in what was supposed to be his breakout season.  He was that bad

You're just seeing this now? How? Did you not watch his first 16 games?

Coach speak or not. The coddling is insane. At what point does this org and staff stop shitting on their own fanbase and acknowledge reality?

yeah, to me, this isn't rah rah cheerleading coaching.  The really good versions of that don't handle people with kids gloves at the end of the day.  

to me, Dabo (college level) and Pete (NFL level ) are the king cheerleader types.  But they will unload on people and speak truths in the moment.

You're delusional if you think a coach in his first game is going to say "well Bryce sucks, he cost us the game himself, he's 5-foot-2 and he throws like a girl." That's never going to happen. There's a level of respect in the NFL coaching ranks, and really at any level in sports, where coaches aren't going to give fans the pound of flesh they demand after one horrible game. It's unrealistic.

I put this in another thread, should have gone here probably.

 

What a joke of a channel. I totally agree with these twos comment on the video:

"Stop making excuses for Bryce. He didn't take shots downfield because his receivers couldn't separate or the scheme was poor, but because Bryce simply doesn't have the arm strength or talent for throws beyond 20 yards. How do I know that, you ask? Because during his best statistical year at Alabama, Bryce completed only 36.1% of passes longer than 20 yards. That is absolutely atrocious. For comparison, his two predecessors at QB, Tua and Jones, completed 57.1% and 58%, respectively. If Bryce couldn't complete deep passes at Alabama, which enjoys a significant talent advantage over almost every opponent, then he certainly ain't gonna start doing it in the NFL."

"Did you see how Bryce failed to pick up simple blitzes three times in the game? I ask because you never mentioned it in your video. How did you miss something so blindingly obvious? Is it because you were trying to gaslight us or because your understanding of football is at middle school level? If latter is the case, please close your channel and stop embarrassing yourself any further."

There was. Coming out of Bama he was considered an elite pocket passer with accuracy and touch that the great ones have

I'll never forget someone here posted advanced stats of all the QB draft candidates in that draft and one of the stats was completion percentage to sideline throws, and Bryce wasn't just the worst, he was by far the worst.  I remembered seeing it and thinking "there's no possible way any FO analyzes these numbers and thinks he's worth taking a flyer on until at least the 4th or 5th round...  lo and behold, our FO threw that poo out the window and decided he was worth the #1 pick.

I was out on him from the college season before his last...  it just became clear to me he was the beneficiary of superior talent and nothing special himself.  And again, it still boggles my mind that just off that Stat alone, FOs still had him in consideration for the first round, because paired with the eye test, his lack of arm, his lack of above average athleticism, and then decision to not even throw at the combine - how tf could you look at AR, Stroud, Levis, or even a Hendon Hooker and think Bryce was gonna project better than any of them?

He was never considered an elite pocket passer. Never. I don't know where or how you got that ridiculous idea from. Bryce was touted as a football supercomputer and an exciting out-of-pocket improviser who possessed superior arm elasticity and excelled at making off-the-platform throws.

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
