I believe I have to disagree with this. Effort is 100% mental toughness. When the body is tired and hurting, and the emotions are down due to bad outcomes, it is the mind that tells them to gather those hidden resources and push through the next play. Same applies to the last set at the end of a brutal workout, the last hour of a long day on the job or any one of multiple other situations where you have to tell your body to push through and ignore the pain.

Mental problems and lack of effort two games into sophomore season.. Great

Effort isnt mental though and hes also shown no effort.

Yeah, I doubt it. I just don't think he has NFL tools. He would need a Goff style landing spot where everything is setup perfectly for him and even then, I just think he's too physically limited to be a legit starting QB in the NFL.

At least give them their credit. They lost 4 in a row.

I think Tua is seeing ghosts out there a lot of times. Not in the Sam Darnold "oh no, I might throw an INT" way but in the "OMG, I don't wanna die" way.

I don't think Matt Rhule is an NFL coach, but he was and maybe still is good in college. Temple first year in 2013 2-10, Temple last year in 2016 10-3 bowl game; Baylor first year in 2017 1-11, Baylor last year in 2019 11-3 Sugar Bowl;-----Panthers/NFL tenure-----; Nebraska first year in 2023 5-7, Nebraska this year 3-0. If Nebraska beats Michigan this weekend (a distinct possibility), they are probably looking at a really nice season.

No because Baker and Darnold have actual normal QB traits.

Anybody else think that we end up cutting Bryce, and he then winds up balling out on another team? Seen this movie before...

Some of these guys need to fail hard to overcome their issues elsewhere. Being put on a pedestal by a bottom dweller has not helped.

Agreed ^^^^^ The only roster player who may be in play is still a prospect in Blake (hes one that makes sense and he's a minny native to boot) Nadeu is a better prospect than many give him credit for think Blake/Nadeu 2 firsts 2 seconds and maybe a teir 3 prospect or two. A hefty price tag but one that would no doubt give the Canes the firepower to go toe to toe with Florida.. Kaprisov-Aho-Svech Ehlers-Jarvis-Hall/Stankoven (In this scenario acquiring anther elite wing would be enough to finally play Jarvis at C) Yea its small but that would give us two 1st lines.... and LOTS of firepower think about how easy our first line scored when we had Guetzel and think X2

Maybe had he been drafted where he was supposed to, 2nd/3rd round by a team that didn't have immediate and critical needs at his position then it would have been different. I generally tend to not believe that but at least he could have developed where he needs to, buried on a depth chart and with no pressure to perform.

You are correct. I forgot that Glenn hired him when he went up there.

INB4 Milroe is ineffective Alabama QB #4 in a row. The curse of Jalen Hurts continues.

He is a heck of an athlete and I think he is probably a good person. This is expected when you draft a raw, one-hit wonder in round 1. Expectations....However, he has about 3-4 games to figure it out.

XL is dealing with the "Mental side". We are good.

I'm staying in the XL fan club. I think he's going to figure this thing out and become a beast.

DC for NYJ

4.3 yards per pass attempt against the Bills. We play them this season too. Oof. Tua has had more glimpses of better play than Bryce has but those games are getting further and further away. And didn't he have to fully alter his throwing motion at one point already? Where they share the highest level of commonality IMO is how many awful or mediocre games they have across all their starts. The Dolphins gave this guy $167 million guaranteed and all he's done is make them regret it. Our FO better be paying attention.

I came to this thread expecting news that Andy was starting this weekend

Tua might be Bryce's ceiling at this point.

Or despite the fact that Wilks is no longer even in the NFL coaching at all? Wilks seemed good in comparison to what we had at the time. That was a devastatingly low bar to clear.

No. Bryce is almost Clausen bad.....almost. That kid....wow.

Clausen vs Young...that would be the most boring matchup of all time. I almost fell asleep just typing that. lol

Maybe Glorilla cut him loose and that is affecting his game just like Bryce and his girl last year.
