The Rams have worse receivers and just a crappy of an o line as us yet Bradford looks legit out there. Don't preach to me

not preaching at you. go look at jackson's yards so far this year, then come tell me that they are just as bad as we are in their o-line.

the gameplan for the rams and the browns generally seems to be to avoid putting their QB in 3rd and long every fuging time.

i wish we'd do the same. yes, it sounds easier than it is, but I'm tired of the bullshit run into the middle of the line twice and try to pick up 10 yards.

can't run the ball when a) your hurt B) the other team stacks at least 8 in the box because you can't pass the ball...

Not true. We ran the ball extremely well against 8 even 9 man boxes last year. Remember those drives that were 6,7, or 8 runs in a row mixed in with a pass?

Now we cant even run against 7 man fronts

ps: none of the rookies would look good in this offense. 0. none. zip. doesnt mean Moore or Clausen are the long term answer here but our team blows at more positions than just QB.

Why do people always say things like this? Are you telling me that if Peyton Manning or Drew Brees was running this offense that the team would look the same? If not, a rookie...who has his head on straight (Bradford, McCoy) could infuse life as well. If a QB cannot hit on intermediate passes, then the running game cannot be established (since teams are stacking against the run until 1 of our Qbs shows them they need to respect the pass).

I've said it a couple of weeks ago, we are going to have to consider drafting a QB, if we do not sign a FA QB. Neither of these guys (Clausen, Moore) have it. I say give Pike the practice reps & see what we have in him. Not a good solution, but might as well get info for we we will stand after this year. :(

Oh hey look, a throw right on the numbers to barnidge and he drops it.

Look, Smitty makes a great catch! JUST KIDDING PHANTOM PUSH OFF!

Smith has a ball bounce off his fingers and looks around confused.

Not to mention the O-line is like a sieve. How do you think Clausen got put in in the first place? God, none of those rookies would look good. Brees & Manning would demand a change in game plan and probably get released because they'd keep changing the plays at the line of scrimmage and pissing off davidson. "NO RUN UP THE MIDDLE, STOP THAT!"

seriously, go watch the game again. Look at the dysfunction at every level of the offense, and come back and tell me we'd look good with Mccoy or Bradford.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
