It's based primarily off of cope. He plays just well enough jest often enough for them to cling to hope because swallowing that bitter pill of admitting that trade up was a huge blunder is gonna be a tough one. But not nearly as tough as the one we'd have to eventually choke down if we extended him to a franchise QB contract. From the fan perspective I think it's a mix of not wanting to be wrong and the fact that Bryce seems like a legitimately decent guy that you wanna root for.

Cardinals probably also...

https://x.com/i/status/1998041990642978934 I cant stress how easily narratives can be created for anybody to sway public opinion and professional careers just based how you rub off on people. If someone doesnt like you purposely they can make it harder for you depending on their status especially in sports and entertainment that easy. The day we get passed this as a society the better off we will be.

For others? Don't know. I can't speak for them. As far as our experts picking Bryce, come on, dude. You know how that went down just as well as I do. You should also know that a good number of the people who were part of that decision (GM, Director of College Scouting, others) are no longer employed here. And the one guy who pretty much everyone believes disagreed with the decision was given his waking papers even before they were. I could make an argument that level of success sometimes masks deficiencies in play (i.e. Alabama quarterbacks) but even that argument is kind of pointless because we all know how Bryce got here.

Wait why are we judging rookie Bryce vs them and not current Bryce I don’t understand fr. Rookie Bryce is indeed up there with the great Jim Clausen but tbf was also on the worst offense ever

Hehehehe you will never know

Not going to say that someone is happy about this, but...

He will if he's smart... or if his agent is smart. Not about to try and predict that outcome

Yeah...No. When John Elway did it, it was entitled behavior. When Eli Manning did it, it was entitled behavior. Those two guys were significantly better quarterbacks than Sanders, and thus way better positioned to act like brats than Sanders was, but that doesn't excuse their actions. My guess would be either Sanders, or more likely...his dad, thought he was on their level. The NFL disagreed. The guy he ultimately ends up bearing a closer resemblance to is Pat White from WVU. White didn't refuse to be drafted by any particular team, but he let it be known in team interviews that he would not play a Kordell Stewart "slash" type role (back when that was popular). That dropped him on a lot of draft boards, and he wound up being nothing special at the pro level. I've long believed his attitude was part of that. His athletic skills were phenomenal and he was great at the college level, but hIs NFL career is basically a footnote. Sanders Will likely be more memorable than White was, but probably more so for highlight reels than actual success.

We have a certain defensive lineman who could wreck a backup even if it's not about sacks.

You weren’t here for Clausen, were you?

I do think it’s the best. fug Reddit and Twitter. We all at least know our handles an online personality’s. And for the most part like eachother like the stump said.

His attitude issues are well documented. I was a big fan of the situation when he and dad went to Colorado. It was the way the treated people that turned me off from them. Maybe he's been humbled. Maybe he will be good. He's not coming here so I dont know why it's such an ongoing topic.

Because this is a place for dinosaurs to hang out. Enjoy it while its here.

Telling a top tier team that wants to draft you in the first round that You don't want to play for them because you don't want to be a backup to their established star quarterback doesn't strike you as dive behavior?

Yep. Football can be a crazy game. If you're on an NFL roster you have the ability to play well if the stars align, especially if your opponent is overlooking you. That third stringer was probably all state in HS and all conference in college. You would've had that game circled on the calendar to face him back in those days and ain't nothing changed now. He's still him.

Rams were theoretically licking their chops at our depleted defense last week.....and turned the ball over 3 times. I mean, it still a good thing. Sometimes it takes a week or so for the weak links to really show what makes them so weak. And sometimes, Derrick Brown is just there and any downgrade is hopefully a problem

Facts

Just wanted to clarify that I am neither a starter for the Bucs nor am I going to IR.

I mean, I can only comment about what I’ve seen and I’ve seen most games live so I can see what’s going on behind the play when the cameras aren’t on him. He’s out of position a lot turns it over a lot. Now to both of y’all‘s points rags fans are stupid and Slaven does make everyone better. Both those things are true.

The more banged up they are, the better for us. We just have to capitalize on their weaknesses.

Hes gonna look a lot better soon with A healthy Slavin covering his butt.

Not that we really have the pass rush to make hay out of this, but..it can't hinder things.

I have no idea what we would decide to do or whom would jump ship with Evero on the defensive staff. I presume someone with heavy ties to Dave Canales.
