  1. It makes you think. Why can’t we do anything else at WR. Nothing feels impactful sans AT. Mingo feels like TMJR 2.0 and it’s not fair to label him as such. But we’ve no dogs. No divas at wr. Too and so many just quiet chill dudes. We need someone that wants to hit someone in the mouth.

  2. Why doesn’t the 65 percent of this fanbase…. Just go be Texans fans. It’s that simple. You’re this married to your guys who’s “clearly better and will be better after 5 games”, just go be a Texans fan. I’m sure they’re taking. There are 612 threads that slight Bryce and prop up Stroud. We get it. Strouds played well. Bryce is hard to measure. We’re beating a dead horse with this constant “get a stroud panthers card, where would bryce be taken, Bryce isn’t good at _____”. He’s. Not. Our. Guy. Get over it.

    Let's not act like Bryce isn't abnormally small for a QB. He's historically small. 

    Perhaps the "big QB" thing meant "just not a little guy" as opposed to Cam Newton, Big Ben, or Josh Allen.

    I'd say that ~6'2" and 220 isn't necessarily a big QB, but a normal one within an NFL context.

    AR has size we want, meanwhile I’d be willing to bet his career is done long before Bryce’ is.

    Honestly the only game I can see is wining is against the Bears. 
     

    I think we’ll be competitive with Houston, Atl again, Tampa twice, Indy minus AR (forget when we play them). Teams a few adjustments, internally, away from at least resembling just a bad team. Not an 0-17 team.

    Well, maybe. One thing I would say is that if you use him too much, defenses will likely start taking cues and that might lead to less effectiveness and ultimately lead to bad things because it's too predictable. 

    I’m super sure that him on the field, at least making defenses think of his presence, adds a ripple that none of our other “just stay in front of them” players offer.

    Unless you want to transition him to a true RB, he is limited because he's a limited receiver. Laviska has had problems with ball tracking since before he got into the league. Why do you think that the Jags basically traded him for a glorified ham sandwich? Why do you think that most of his receptions are near the LOS? You can't be a legit receiver if you have problems tracking the ball.

    Screens, motions, and handoffs alone have resulted in some of our best individual plays this season. Then they just stop happening. I don’t even want him out there being a WR. Just a weapon.

  7. One thing I haven’t grasped too too much, is Laviskas limited usage. Every time he touches the ball, he finds a way forward and he’s shown he’s capable of hitting a home run. I know his route tree is absolute garbage, but he’s so physical and tenacious. He’ll make a lot out of nothing, then get pulled until 2 quarters later for a play or two. Things work when he touches the ball and we insist on forcing bland garbage elsewhere.

    I can tell you that in person the only time they got life on the sidelines was after Zavala got injured.

    We spend all of these resources to trade up to number one, we spend all of this money on coaches that are pure specialists- old and new. There’s no reason the teams effort should he this poor. A junk team like Arizona tries hard every game, Houston seems to have a stable foundation and they’ve made Stroud comfortable with less options. Every single time Laviska touches the ball, something great happens, but let’s continue to use him 2-3 times a game only. Yeah obviously Bryce hasn’t looked great, but I don’t know many rookies who’d come into this nervous , nonchalant mess, and be successful. There’s no reason to hold onto Reich any longer. The team isn’t going to magically buy into his soft methods of coaching and we need a sideline guy who looks like he gives a damn.

    Yeah, he has some issues that will need correction. I am not off the Bryce bandwagon yet but he was not the advertised "most ready to play" guy. That was completely false.

    I am fine with him learning this season. I am not gonna jump all over Bryce. I am going to be the first on the "Fire Reich" train, however. 

    This guy has to fuging go. I mean ASAP.

    Standing there staring at your clipboard with a slight eyebrow tilt isn’t awe inspiring. The team needs a kick in the behind, not a slightly disappointed uncle on the sideline. I don’t think I’ve seen a team so confidence - less. Rhules teams didn’t look this bland and scared, and I’ve been the anti Rhule guy since day one. Stoic Ron is sorely missed compared to this oatmeal master. I’m right there with you on the Reich firing. It’s not the right fit. Teams shouldn’t give up by week 5. No one cares, no one’s accountable. No ones firing anyone up. We need someone with juice and inspiration. Now.
