and the same one who said Zach Wilson should have been the #1 pick. i can't argue really with some of his points, Bryce does have a lot to prove that his game can translate to the NFL, especially when it comes to making NFL throws consistently

this! i knew we were in trouble last preseason when i saw that offensive line. most on here called me a crybaby

It can't be worse, we hit bottom last year and only way is to go up. How much better? 2 wins -> 4 wins? or can they actually win 7-8 games? I don't think the latter is happening

That's fair, I just thought the game manager typically means our defense has to carry and not sure that'll be possible.

NFL 2K - 2005 I think was the peak for me as well, never could get into Madden after that. In fact, I stopped playing Madden in protest due to the monopoly

He’s already said in interviews his goal is to turn Bryce into a game manager and only ask him to make a few special plays per game. I think it’s smart for Bryce’s development but it also means we won’t win many games.

I haven’t played it in almost 20 years. You would think by now they would just have AI generate the playbook based on actual game footage.

Don't know anyone can pass Smitty other than his stats, he'll always be the goat. I do expect XL to break all rookie receiving records. Hopefully Bryce develops a connection with him and delivers the ball on time because I have a feeling he will have no problems getting open in the NFL.

2:0 start, let's go!

These lists are so dumb, who TF cares

Solid depth at least - I don't think we'll be able to count on Brooks until mid way through the season for any major carries.

is this a Canales guy from his days in Seattle?

I agree, bunch of guys who won't have an issue with maximum effort and toughness, they'll maximize their potential and punch above their weight.

You can’t fix it all in one offseason

What happened to Mingo?

Looks like the fans voice was heard!

You’ve earned it, cheers

I can agree with this logic.

I agree - and I think having a legitimate TE threat in the middle of the field is what will suit Bryce's game.

If you only could select one of these players

Brooks would have started if he wasn't returning from injury but I think half way through the season will see increase in reps. XL better start day 1 or he wasn't the right pick.

He will get all 17 games. Nobody could be fairly judged behind last year's train wreck of an offensive line and weapons. This year - hopefully he'll have no excuses and you can judge him on his performance. My only hope is that he didn't get mentally damaged from being thrown to the wolves as a rookie. If he comes out stronger out of it and he can work on his footwork and mechanics, I think he will improve and we'll see more of a Bryce we expected.
