I made it about 2 minutes, abysmal footwork and he will never correct it because he has to do that style due to his height. Also the arm motion, throwing with your arm extending as high as possible doesn't seem like the best option to generate pure arm strength.

Talk to the folks who aren’t happy about winning the division my guy. I’m good.

Winning the division with a losing record is like being a valedictorian with a 1.2 GPA in a special education academy.

Of course they can win, they have already done it. Spitting facts.

The defense has got to be tired of how the offense has been playing for weeks now lol. D has over achieved this year granted their talent and the offense has looked flat too many times for how much we've invested in it

If the Raiders don't want him, why should we There is someone better we might could trade for who is falling out with the team that drafted him Lamar Jackson>Geno Smith

I had some regulars at the bar watching the game, non Panthers fans, and they were like why is he floating every single pass? The trajectory on every throw is so soft/slow and interception worthy lol. Even his "big time plays" almost every time the WR is waiting on the ball after beating their man by 3-5 yards.

9 games at 175 or less, 5 tds, 7 ints, 4 fumbles He is him. Elite. Btt gwd.

Yeah...he's jumping to throw..

Anyhow, came in here to drop this I got about halfway through it. It is worth watching.

How is a play call related to his mechanical deficiencies? In a sense that you could possibly blame the former for the latter? If anything, it the opposite. You might choose a play because it does not require great mechanics and timing, I can see that. Those rollout on the run throws for instance.

As a QB you can get away with shitty mechanics ever so often when your arm talent/strength is off the charts good. BY arm strength is ummmm how do you put this????? TRASH, so even the slightest of sloppy mechanics is going to cause big problems. Hence BY career stats being also said TRASH or mediocre at best for all you BY truthers.

Now I know Bryce's mechanics are shithouse but that also coincides with Canales and his poo scripted plays too also go along with a defense that allows long time killing drives. Which in turn create a perfect storm for terrible stat performances.

Bet your life savings on the Rams

I'm sorry to hear that, bud.

Might be little too easy

Almost may as well keep Dalton. Geno won’t be competition. IMO. He could be but I don’t think they will take that approach. I think more Andy pt 2, big bro, mentor, emergency starter. I really want to be wrong but we have had no encouraging signs there for two years. If we are stuck with Bryce again, and it looks like we will be, I would so much more prefer a younger player with a possible future. A guy that hasn’t been great but maybe didn’t have the best situation - and let nature take its course. But I don’t expect anything that I want to happen, as far as it goes. It never does. Not one time yet under Tepper. Starting with the 3-4.

We can go on and on about the players, but I'm more into judging Canales O based on the playcalling and general design. It's still a very mixed bag for me. There are times where I like what I see. The rolling pockets he'll call at times seem to play right into Bryce's best qualities which I like. Him using Jimmy Horn with certain plays is good - although execution by Horn has been frustrating when he missed an opportunity for a big play. if it's 4th down and a pass play, I like the odds of a good play. Giving Coker more snaps over XL recently is a potentially good sign that he's not satisfied with XL's mistakes and is adjusting accordingly. I don't follow why we don't use the tight ends more often in the pass game, but seems that those work better than average. At some point, we were really running the ball well, so that's something, I suppose. On the other hand, while he has shown to adjust, it often is too much of a swing in the other direction. Too often, we do something and it's working - like if running to the perimeter is getting us yards - only for Canales to then go back go stuffing up in the middle and wasting a down. Don't need to harp about the times when he tries to be too cute and it blows up in our faces. Canales has too many bad tendencies that our opponents are picking up on, like how we are quite likely to run on first down. Finally, I sometimes get the impression his play designs are for players that we don't actually have. We just don't really have explosive players on our teams that can make guys miss, and so these route concepts really should reflect the reality that YAC is not really expected and so it needs to be more vertical and/or have elements that help create separation by design. In other words, it still feels like the margin of error for a successful play, even a basic one, is too narrow.

Sure want him to play if possible!!!!

Which would be 8-8-1. An improvement.

Not sure who you are talking to. Everybody maybe? Anyhow the family cat woke me up so…. Saturday, I will be in the playoff frame of mind for that game don’t worry about that. Will be living and dying on each play. Pretty sure everyone will be. That is still a few days away though. Right now it is yes we made the playoffs. Backed into it with some convoluted 3 way tie breaking magic. It took a heroic finish - not by us, but by Atlanta. I don’t hardly know how to feel about it. I don’t feel like we won it. It is just sort of, well okay here we are, somehow. Our number came up. We were lucky. And that is what we were. Not good, lucky. As far as here, this discussion, I think people rightly feel like, look at the offense. And it is kind of, what offense? They shut our run down and we become totally stagnant. Some people have faith that the QB can beat people with his arm but we aren’t doing it. We went into our bye off a big high. In or tied for, first place. We control our destiny. 4 games to do it. And we freaking finished 1-3. That control our destiny thing? We didn’t control poo when it comes down to it. Lost in the mix is basically a huge collapse. No one really called it out, it got lost in the excitement of the chase. But, 1-3 with the playoffs on the line - every week. Not inspiring. I mean, you don’t call that trending up, and if we hadn’t lucked into the tournament that would be our finish headed into the offseason. Not what you want. And if we don’t win Saturday? 1-4 to finish the year. Limping out. Okay that said I do hate going into playoffs on a winning streak because you are almost due to end the streak and that loss ends your season, so dropping One before the elimination games start is almost a comfort. But 1-3 with a 54 yard passing total in one of them? Followed by 14 points in a must win. Hmmm. I am supposed to be optimistic? Sorry I don’t think I can be. I can hope, that’s different. It has just been a rough 8 years, and the excitement of having a winning record is in the rear view this week. About the only way we can have one is make the NFCCG I think. Anyhow, on offense, where are the signs that we can beat people who stymie our run game? I suppose it could happen out of the blue but we haven’t really been able to pull that off. Beating Tampa Bay was good. That was it though. Our other last little bit of glory is two plays on 4th down where they didn’t really pay attention in the back end, somehow, and we got two really nice results. Not once, but twice back to back. Honestly it was so out of character it felt a little fluky. And here we are, depending on that to happen Saturday. At least I guess is what we are hoping for. Good luck to us.

Yeah that’s how I see the division currently and when I say repeatable I mean wins against teams like GB and the Rams, dominated performances like the first atl game other playoffs teams we’ve faced we got blown out, team still doesn’t have an identity expect being inconsistent
