  1. Exactly, sounds hyperbolic and idiotic, doesn't it? That's what reading 80% of this board feels like.
  2. Yep, how poor of Bryce to lead this team to a win with a larger margin of victory than the Steelers, Buccaneers, and Broncos. Since so many of you would trade him instantly for Rodgers, Nix or Hurts then how do you explain that? C'mon, bring out the mental gymnastics, clearly the only thing that matters is the QB, everything else is irrelevant right?
  3. We've already established your bonafides are non-existent, so your opinion is meaningless.
  4. He may have literally hurt his Achilles lmao But I am sure you can find something negative out of a road victory against a touch Jets defense. Must be tiresome to live in that headspace.
  5. Our linebackers have played better in recent weeks but any reversion would be lethal because at their worst the middle of this defense becomes a serious problem. Also Mike Jackson has had a rough couple of weeks, we need him to pick it back up. There are no gimmes in the NFL.
  6. They wanted me to move to Cincinnati, I wasn't going to do that. Simple as that.
  7. Ahh, so you're actually not capable of any developing your metric, coding your own scraping and metric calculation system, and have it automatically publish to your own website on a nightly basis? Well that's just unfortunate.
  8. Great, then you design your own quarterback metric, write your own algorithm for it, scrape years of statistics, code your own website, and post it. Let's see your intelligence at work.
  9. At no point have I "stumped hard" for Bryce. I have simply given clear explanations on why assessing quarterback play is more difficult than looking at simple outcomes because they are intricately tied to numerous factors outside of their control, and that his biggest weakness isn't a lack of physical size but a blind spot in regards to ball security due to an overly aggressive mindset towards play risk/reward ratio. The fact that these elements rub Bryce detractors the wrong way is more a function of their own one-sided perceptions being forced to confront some actual nuance than anything else. If saying the jury is still out on Bryce makes me a "stumper" than that says vastly more about them than it does me.
  10. There's nothing to counter, Dalton's longest attempt over that time period was 48 air yards. No idea where you remember this magical 60 yard throw from.
  11. Well, you've established your bonafides, I've established mine, if you feel they are comparable, then c'est la vie.
  12. You can characterize it however you want, but at each step you are saying "this is what I saw" and what I am providing is actual data. And at no point have I ever characterized Bryce as some deep throwing savant, merely pointing out that the data does not support the idea that he is incapable of attempting and making those kinds of throws. In fact, if we want to get into the analytical weeds, I have my own quarterback metric that I have developed over the years that has a higher correlation with wins than either passer rating or ANYA or ESPN's QBR, and it places Bryce as the 25th rated QB in all of football. If I was biased in any way I'd try to massage the formula to make him look better but the reality is that his lows have greatly weighed on his overall average even this season and he absolutely needs to continue to improve to give this team a chance at future championships.
