  1. The difference in arm talent is pretty stark between Stroud and Young. And Stroud seems to be “processing” more than fast enough, which looks like a manufactured red flag that was tied to Stroud after the S2 shenanigans. Unless Bryce takes some huge leap and the first two games are lying, this is going to be painful to watch.
  2. Mr. So Blessed was a fan. I’m tired of the sweet kid nice guy angle.
  3. I’m not surprised by the meltdown. The way the game ended, and the embarrassing 2 point conversion will do that to a fan base.
  4. Definitely an emotional post, but I’d be down for that. We didn’t sign up for this poo. I’ll cool down by Tuesday, and I hope everyone else enjoys the evening.
  5. I’d say so. Promote Evero to HC, he then would let Thomas run the offense.
  6. Wish Carrol was our coach. His teams give effort. They have fun. He gets a lot of our players. They seem to draft well. They coach with balls.
  7. Imagine how good he’d be doing if they didn’t hire a defensive HC. -Huddle
  8. I know it’s a general term, but reading/hearing “processing” is wearing thin. I’ve never heard it used this much for any other player. At the end of the day, this is football; not rocket biology.
  9. I think if Wilks was retained, with the way we finished the year, that anything below .500 would have been a disappointment. So it’s interesting (and this may be people defending Bryce, or just revising expectations) that after two weeks, we are talking 4 wins/6 wins etc keeps Reich around, when this staff was supposed to be an UPGRADE, and Bryce, albeit a rookie, was supposed to be an UPGRADE from what we had at the position last season. So maybe the Falcons and Saints are both playoff teams and we don’t know it yet; maybe we start beating bad teams like Wilks did, and we realize this as the year develops… But if, in the end, WE are one of the bad teams, instead of a team that beats bad teams but loses to good ones… I’m fine letting this staff go bye bye after this season.
  10. I don’t think trading for Darnold was bad either; it’s giving a talented guy another shot under the belief he got a raw deal in NY. It was a gamble, and I don’t mind taking a chance But based on what he had done in the league, we paid too much, and that was apparent from the jump. And it was more than a 2nd rounder. Wasn’t it a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th? Something like that.
  11. Would it have been wise to air it out when your best option was Darnold though? Gotta work with what you have.
  12. Just thought about this, but just curious. If we took the second half of the year team that finished 4-2, with Foreman and the run focus, and just swapped Darnold for Bryce…do we look better right now? I don’t know, but it’s interesting (if futile) to think about.
  13. Not really. It’s still early maybe? But I’m damn near at the end of my patience. It was fun (because Rhule ruined football beforehand) to watch our team compete down the stretch to possibly win a shite division. I enjoyed that. As a fan who doesn’t get to pick the players we draft, ultimately I like watching the team get a W every time it happens. So I just try to enjoy the ride. Now if we pulled a Texans and lost the first pick by winning the final game…I’d be upset lol.
  14. So I liked what Wilks did last year, and he gave the team a spark, and made football fun to watch again. And he was far from perfect, but simply an imperfect upgrade from Rhule. It was more of the old school pound the rock and play defense style, but that matched with our lack of talent at QB. Made sense. But I understood moving on, especially to a more offensively minded staff, and once Evero was hired, I was happy that we didn’t neglect the only positive (yet imperfect) thing about our team: defense. And that side of the ball remains good enough to win football games. I am just absolutely stunned by this offense right now. I didn’t expect greatness, but competence. The coaching staff has been praised like crazy, so I expected more. But through two weeks, I am not seeing scheme adapted to players, but, ONCE AGAIN, players seem forced to do things they aren’t great at. Sanders is being run up the guy like CMC was, on obvious run downs. WR screen are being run for Theilen, instead of far more YAC able players. There is no motion or misdirection, or rather very little of it. Laviska does special things with the ball…manufacture touches for him in space. I see other teams do this all the time. Stretch Sanders outside so he can use his footspeed. We paid for a TE. Get him the ball. I am just stunned, but it’s not like I watch Colts games the last few years, so maybe that’s on me.
  15. That’s younger me all day long. And if I’m honest, that’s still me from time to time. I just realize what’s happening and laugh at myself more nowadays lol.
  16. I think those calling you a bad fan for this take, just haven’t realized the truth of what you are saying yet.
  17. For Bryce. Not the Panthers. But to be fair I don’t know this guy, but I’m seeing a lot of apologizing for Bryce in the media right now, and I guess I should just avoid reading it, because it’s annoying the poo out of me lol. I know it’s early and it’s a 17 game season, but just let it play out. There are a lot of people running to Young’s defense, but save that poo. An off-season of “I’m blessed” and “processing” has me saying; enough metrics, enough hype, enough is enough. Just do something. I don’t need anymore talk about how great this kid is. Show us.
  18. I’m sorry but this stuff comes off as damage control. We don’t have the 49ers roster, but we, once again have a defense with no offense. Bryce gave away the game week 1, and Reich made McAdoo look like Bill Walsh week 2. We lack depth, but we don’t lack talent. Something ain’t right, and I expect this “all star staff” to figure out how to use players to their strengths…
  19. Chinn is literally smaller faster Luvu. He’s a linebacker. He’s explosive. He’s a heavy hitting guy. He can blitz, he is strong enough to hold the edge from time to time even if he’s lighter. A back or TE tasked at blocking him is a tall order. He plays bigger than his size, although he isn’t even small. The anti-YGM.
