Play #3 had Johnson wide open for the TD.  Still a positive play as the result, but not seeing a wide open man flashing into his field of vision is concerning.

How do you know he didn't see him?

The DB had a good angle underneath, would have had a more difficult pass for the TD and took the easier chunk completion to Thielen.  I don't see an issue.

BTW, don't know if you guys know this but Idzik was calling plays the second half of the game.

So is this going to be a thing?  Does Idzik get to call the plays at some point this season?

Does he say who gets stashed on PS?

He was undrafted for a reason, maybe he will be a solid backup one day

As to the question of who does Canales remind me of as a coach, it is Pete Carroll. That constant enthusiasm and positivity coupled with a desire to run the ball and be physical carried him to a lot of success. Hopefully Canales can replicate that here.

100% even the body language and mannerisms on the sideline reminds me of Pete

More tds, less interceptions and obviously more yards with more of those comimg from big plays. He only had 2800 yds passing while playing in 16 games. Is it to much to ask too improve on that to you?? 

 

Of course not, but you still didn’t define how many yards and TDs.  ex.  3,800 yds, 25TDs,  7.5+ yds per completion, etc

I have already said I don't expect bryce to be worse than last year mainly because it would be really hard to be worse than what he was just looking as his numbers alone. HOW MUCH better he will be this year is the real question and what I'm paying attention too. If it's minimal improvement than is just as bad as none at all for him. This is still a number one overall pick and I'm gonna continue to treat him as such unlike other fans. 

Already hedgin eh? Can you at least define what acceptable improvement would look like in terms other than arm strength?

I don't see ISM getting cut for Moore unless he's banged up bad.  Neither are very good but ISM has the special teams thing going for him.

I was pretty surprised with how Raym played.  Never even heard of the guy and didn't hear his name called today.

Agree on both points. 

Would be nice to have some surprise depth at OL - especially at the center position.

He's not going anywhere, we can keep 4 TE's, especially in this offense. 

He is a player that needs a learning curve.  He needed it at South Carolina and he needs it here. But once it clicks for him, his ceiling is really high.

Bryce seems a little happy footed too.

He was literally resetting his feet going through progressions. That’s what you want to see

Hard for me not to consider a 3-4 variation on Defense

Kevin Greene and Sam Mills would have to make the list

Former 2nd round pick 

Can't be worse than Zavala, can he?

My general thought is let him play out his entire deal and then see what happens. I get that we run the risk of him staying healthy, balling out and then we have to pay top money. But, I am okay paying a top player top money. I am not okay getting caught in a mid-level deal for multiple seasons for a guy that has so trade value and can't stay healthy.

I'm good with this

CMC's injuries were often the result of poor management by the staff resulting in him being over worked. (20 HB dives per game, playing 99% of snaps)

I'm pretty sure SF uses him just as much, he had second most carries in his career last year (272), second only to the 2019 season with Carolina when he had 287.

almost everyone wanted CMC gone due to injuries and now that he is playing like a hall of famer they’re pissed. Horn will be special his injury days are behind him

Are some people seriously criticizing Morgan for trading a 7th rounder to fill a key gap in our roster?  I know we’re not in win now mode but it had ti be addressed. This was a really good trade for us

Maybe they are trying to see just how deep into the realm of suck he is capable of taking the offense? Like they are searching for some 5th dimension level of suck poo perhaps?

My biggest concern is how do you evaluate wide receivers

He is terrible, why does he keep getting all the preseason reps?  

Anyone know which teams in camp are deepest at CB. May be worth trading one or two of the 7ths next year for someone that is likely to get cut anyway.

The othering fellow fans is getting old all around and people need to stop trying to claim the high ground while doing so.

Not taking the high road, I have been vocal as well but this is just too much, it’s only preseason lol

If people cant bash him prior to seeing him play this season than people cant praise him either. 

We all hope he can be a good QB but the fact is if he doesnt play well enough to keep us from drafting high again its over for him. 

I don’t disagree, so let’s just keep calm and wait and see.
