I think it also helps having a formidable rushing attack. GB was sending rush blitzes quite often, and the defense as a whole focused primarily on making us one dimensional. They succeeded, however, didn’t expect Bryce and the WRs to take off in the passing game.

And the narrative on nfl’s website is that their defense gave up so many yards and points. They fail to mention that it was done by an interim coach coaching a 2-12 team, with a rookie QB, with an offense that hasn’t been able to score much all season. Like Tabor said, we just ran out of time.

will then have to accept that we can't keep both Luvu and Brown.

Correct me if I’m wrong but GB shouldn’t have been able to challenge the catch, fumble, and fumble recovery as “not being a completed pass” because the turnover and recovery that was called on the field nullified it “not being a catch.” Hope that made sense.

I’m not on the sign burns train for what he wants, but I don’t remember seeing any run plays towards Burns’ side. Maybe the opposing teams are running plays away from his side for a reason? still, I see him playing patty-cake with right tackles and tight ends mostly.

Unfortunately I think we’ll probably hear that the rest of Bryce’s NFL career like how people still talk about how Cam was a selfish player/only had one good year/can’t throw the ball/fake smile. I told my wife (who’s a bandwagon 49ers fan) that if Bryce leads the team to victory with 19 seconds left then I’ll get his jersey. I think he was on his way to do that so maybe I should stop saying that I’m still waiting for him to prove me wrong, because I think he’s already proven me and a lot of people wrong.

I’ve been critical of him all season (waiting for him to prove me wrong) but he’s been able to take hits, and now, make plays when the game is on the line. He seems to thrive in crunch time which is very reminiscent of Delhomme (for me). I hope he continues to grow into the QB we need.

Same here. Huge step towards proving me wrong. He’s definitely growing on me. Had we had more time, I think he would’ve pulled out a win. That last drive he was cookin’

I think our players are just too small for 3-4 at the moment. Evero has done a great job scheming around the players we have, but I think right now our dudes are probably better fit for 4-3.

we had like what, 19 seconds left until end of regulation? He almost pulled off the tie or win, but you know, refs intervened for the umpteenth time.

Frank Reich.

The whole game they were hyping up GB that if they win out they can get into playoffs with some help. The fix was in. I agree, SB50 level garbage. Wasn’t a catch but still the offense was marching downfield. Bryce is growing on me.

Damn Bryce almost pulled it off. Dude has definitely grown.

I mean, the folks who do have FO experience are not getting it done. We’ve hit rock bottom.

Merry Christmas you filthy animals (because we're Panthers).

the real no look pass logically, the picture was taken at the right time while he was blinking Jake delhomme made plenty of passes where he had his eyes closed as well

We’re hanging onto Evero because 1.) he’s good and 2.) so we can get a comp pick for him next offseason when he does get hired away. The rule requires that minority coaches have to be on staff for at least 2 seasons to count towards the third round pick compensation. I don’t like the rule but it’s what’s going on.

For the money he's asking we can probably have Brown and Luvu. I'd say they are more important to our defense than keeping Burns at the rate he's asking for.

The defense has been decimated with injuries all year and the DC has been able to field a competitive unit all season. He's made lemonade with lemons. Can't say the same about the offensive staff.

I saw a little bit of "Cam" in him yesterday after his 11 yard improvised run. He even smiled and celebrated. I'd like to see more of that from QB1.

Nah, everyone is just auditioning for other teams at this point.

I hope Tepper meddles enough to force the new HC to keep Evero on as DC (if Evero wants to stay).

That’s one thing he’s been able to do to prove the doubters wrong, myself included. Still waiting on him to prove me wrong with his play, but he took a good step in that direction on that last drive.

I’ve been down on him but heck yeah. Young came in the clutch

Definitely coaching. Look at what Evero has done to our defense. Hes basically been plugging and playing with so many guys landing on IR throughout the season, and the defense is ranked 4th in the league (yes some stats are skewed due to BY).
