  1. that Packers dude I'm pretty sure went about re-writing the Packers record books.....and basically was never seen again.
  2. Bryce is also a reason why the forever trailing Panthers are having to go for it on 4th down so much. Think the math is going to math there. The more you go for it, the healthier the %is going to look IMO. Folks that rarely go for it can sort of trend oddly high or low sometimes.
  3. I mean if you look at our wins, he factually hasn’t been a big reason as to why we have won most of them. He has a been a big reason we have lost in most our losses
  4. Paying coaches doesn’t impact cap and ability to compete. Paying players does. to me, the one positive of an uber wealthy owner wanting to spend….is in theory he could throw money at coaches
  5. I don't need that many words to say Bryce Young has not yet surpassed the caliber of QB play that current Joe Flacco represents. I have watched every game Bryce has played. He doesn't give you average QB play. He can't make a ton of throws. Bryce is consistent overall in what he is. You can take outlier games on both ends of the spectrum out of play and judge him or any QB.....for Bryce it is unquestioned bottom of the league play. All you have to do is watch the two play. Flacco is good enough that if you can keep up right and give him time.....he presents a level of play Bryce can't do as a passer. and Joe Flacco sucks. Everyone coming off this random 2nd half vs Atlanta and thinking it erases the consistent suck that has been Bryce. The arena league QB will be outdoors again this weekend.....struggling to hit 200
  6. CMC said he expected to play his career here. He didn't think he would be traded. Carolina decided they wanted to trade him. He picked here he wanted to go. But we dumped him. For largely peanuts. But we dumped DJ Moore and he never had a blood and guts game. So it's never a guarantee.
  7. I think a huge % of pro athletes have weird brains. A team being like nah, we don't want you......is fuel all seem to use. plus, we really didn't even get that much for him. I would have been thankful though if I were CMC
  8. What games featured a good 60 minutes of Bryce Young? I mean, if Bryce didn't come out after the half vs Atlanta let say because he was too hurt......he probably is benched without that 2nd half in Atlanta.
  9. Again, Flacco is a better QB today than Bryce Young. Flacco old as dirt has been better each year. And Bryce isn’t “better” this year than other years
  10. You want me to explain how Joe Flacco is present day still better than Bryce Young? Well, Joe Flacco and Bryce Young both played in the NFL from 2023-present day, so just looking at that window of play….Flacco has been better at almost every aspect of how we judge QB play during that window. Plus the eyeball test bonus. And we got Flacco rolling with 3 different teams to give a very diverse sample. Only Bryce Young’s mom and dad would argue Bryce has been better than ancient Flacco since being in the NFL (2023-present day).
  11. That PFF math doing its thing. What does Vegas say
  12. True, 12 man money league here….he is still sitting out there. Projected to have a worse fantasy day than Davis Mills, Tyrod Taylor, Mason Rudolph that join him on the waiver wire
  13. It’s hard to argue he is unquestionably better than Fields or Rattler. Given the argument for Bryce can’t really be made statistically and they also play for bad teams that’s sort of his tier. Put him where you want to in that tier but the Rattler, Fields, tier is his
  14. Maybe we beat the Saints? but if you acknowledge the weirdness Bryce has with Atlanta…..you sort of have to acknowledge the Saints have him figured out as well as anyone. He is horrific vs the Saints
  15. Some teams employ multiple. Take the Bengals. Today, Burrow and Flacco are better. the burden here is really on the Bryce hypers.
  16. Can’t be 20 better? Thats child’s play. Bryce Young is not in the top 20 today Only way you could invent an argument there aren’t is if you start talking contracts, age and basically future/building scenarios and start knocking guys with no real future off
  17. Well, if Carolina wanted to trade him…..you start telling them where you would be willing to go. seems that’s how it went down. We wanted to deal him for the tank job (that failed)…..and he selected where he would go.
  18. The defense has pulled that feat off this season though. Multiple times. offense has not had a single good first half all season. Only and good opening scripted drive paired with disappointing play. defense has been the actual unit you can measure real and consistent improvement IMO. Still holes and flaws to it that aren’t going away until new bodies get here but they really are the story of the season IMO
  19. They got the #2 pass offense in the NFL and could jump to #1 any given Sunday at this point. They are playing at home. There passing strength also syncs up with our weakness on pass defense.
  20. He isn't trainwreck Bryce vs Atlanta. Pretty sure he had a rushing TD though.
  21. Debating taking the ole private jet for a spin out west and picking up Jeff Bezos, Roseanne Barr, and the guy that played Chunk in the Goonies to catch the game. Depends if they got a good luxury box available or not. If not, heck, I'll probably just catch it home on my couch while my wife complains about me watching it and my daughter asking why she can't watch a Christmas movie on the big TV.
  22. He averaged 2.2 going into Atlanta. 3 shot attempts is the most consistent number that pops on his pass charts. 5 games w/ 3 attempts. His high was Miami with 4.
  23. Nah, you are right. The 49ers are going to throw out all the film on the Panthers and design a unique gameplan purely off of one half of football vs the anomaly career Bryce Young opponent. Sell out to stop the pass.....and dare Rico Dowdle to beat them in light boxes. That makes way more sense.
  24. the WR/TEs overperformed against a bad team. Especially after the half. I mean, if Bryce Young never came out after halftime, everyone would basically be ready to bench him for good. That wasn't a "confident" guy. First half was basically the textbook Bryce game. Scripted opening drive was good and a bunch of nothing. Bryce didn't throw any more deep balls than the week before vs the Saints. What changed this game is our WRs just got open and did a lot with the ball in their hands vs a bad team in the 2nd half. I mean, props to Bryce on wanting to stay in and rebounding some in this game. But largely the narrative is a random half of football is argued we should think something different now about him. Which makes no sense 2.5+ years into what is a very consistent QB in terms of what he is and isn't overall.
  25. yeah, Steve was basically like on any actual topic that approached his flaws/problems.....89 went with the long winded, try to sound like a wise man strategy of just basically just pleading the 5th (and sprinkling in the idea that others could of been wrong or wrong too). also, in terms of the assaults and stuff like that....it feels like old 89, I feel has sort of forgotten his well-documented confessions and apologies about that aspect and era of his and was trying to re-write his story/image in hindsight. And in all honesty, it seemed like a PR move on the twitter/cheating stuff also attempting to play himself as not the bad guy some think with the intentional vague suggestions. and the Pivot and all these athlete moves to basically take the reigns and power from traditional outlets exposes they have just as bad as flaws if not more often than the traditional media folks. I mean I do like the free form long talk when dudes are telling stories but all this stuff is largely flawed and controlled PR often.
