Bear Hands

I mean, there's Marv, Nabers, Rome, Keon, and Egbuka who are all great and 1st round dudes. I think he's absolutely right in range. And he fits exactly what we're looking for. Quickness, speed, big play threat, decent size, he's improved drastically when it comes to route running this year, YAC stuff is really shifty. If we weren't such idiots with trades, he'd be a perfect guy to secure in that 22-30 range in a trade up. But, we're running out of ammo and have too many holes. I've been hoping he could be our guy since week 1. Have never ID'd a player this early but he really is exactly what we need.

Stroud is on pace for 30+ TDs, 2 INTs, 4,000 yards at 8.0+ YPA...and aiming for a playoff birth. First year coach, rookie WR, a very mid-RB group, an injured OL, and over-peforming WRs. It is absolutely insane what is happening with Houston.

I would just like to repeat again: Troy Franklin

He's a good TE.

He's doing this with Noah Brown? Dalton Shultz? Devin Singletary? I mean?!?! Crazy It's going beyond the Young vs. Stroud bitterness, he's having one of the best rookie seasons of all time. Unreal to watch.

Stroud is the freaking dude. He's having an MVP season in a rookie year. Absolutely bonkers. Honestly, with how JAX, TEN and IND look, they could take the division.

Stroud has a GW drive chance here. Some great finishes going on

Seriously. Even Vonn Bell has been underwhelming. Every single move this past offseason looks like a miss. Mingo, DJJ, Zavala, that FSU S, Miles Sanders, Chark, it's endless. BP had good moments in his career but I'm pretty sure he even acknowledges he's a bit past the times when it comes to eval. He probably offers good insight when it comes to operational stuff and how to deal with stuff situationally, but I doubt he's offered player intel. We've got an entire scouting dept. for that.

Always love the BP hate when he's basically retired just giving advice to those who come to him. He's the one just sitting at home at Norman and getting airtime when a network calls. Tepper's the one reaching out.

I honestly don't know how JAX is 6-2. Their offense has been crap this season.

It's interesting that the offense many often compared/thought we'd look like this year has also been struggling week in and week out (JAX)

Josh Dobbs looks like Kordell Stewart today

Stroud is unreal.

I'm tired of this nice guy who's willing to listen to every deal. I'm ready for evil. I want ruthless, conniving. Evil

Have never gotten it together since Beane/Gregory/Koncz departed.

Definitely think the Cowboys will be a good barometer game. If they stomp this offense and nothing is changing, yeah, maybe just sit him for the rest of the season. I don’t know, why not just play him if no bad habits are forming? That’s why we have this “all star” coaching staff right? I would like to see him beat a Levis led Titans though. They could at least give us that. It’s just crazy how they can’t create any sort of offense, it’s an embarrassment. Never forget “we built the defense first, then the offense, so we felt we were in a place to go and get our QB” Fail. Shame.

Don’t really believe this concept you can ruin a QB by playing him. Bad QBs just get found out more quickly within bad organizations. Sure a poor supporting cast will cause losses and give them bad stats, but you should still be able to see glimpses of the talent. It can cause bad habits but nothing a good QB can’t shake. Still here trying to be patient. There have been some radar blips.

Yeah Bryce has been standing in the pocket fine, doesn’t seem frazzled. The OL is bad but metric wise they’re like 23 in pocket protection and there have been plenty of stretches with adequate time. WRs, coaching and Bryce’s own play are bigger contributors IMO. Not a fan of the David Carr syndrome thing…We witnessed “Carr syndrome” which was really just David Carr not being a legit QB and never comfortable in an NFL pocket.

I think the timing could work out nicely after getting steamrolled by the Cowboys. Hell, maybe it's Christ Tabor if not Evero or Staley...he's done the interim thing before and his unit has consistently been the most disciplined and prepared this year. We do that, get the classic firing spark and beat Levis and the Titans. Maybe they could show some life down the stretch and we end up 4-13.

Alrighty, all stays the same moving forward. Freaking lovely.

Thinking about coaches fired year 1. There's other guys you could point to like Tomsula, Meyer, Chud, & Wilks, actually, quite a lot in recent memory...but Hackett is the freshest. How does this compare in lack of competency? The in-game decisions recently (i.e kicking, not knowing who's on the field, etc.) made this seem eerily comparable. Hackett somehow got to week 16 at 4-11 before being canned. If Reich lasts this week, we've got 8 games left. We'll likely be 1-9 headed to Nashville to face Will Levis and Derrick Henry. If not this week, when do we hit eject? And our we experiencing what could be argued the worst coached season in NFL history? Does this compare to Hackett, Kitchens, or Tomsula yet?

I wouldn't mind drafting a backup honestly. That's how yuo can find a potential diamond in case Bryce doesn't work out. Then you're talking the Michael Pratts of the world.

Yeah if anything, WRs are the ones that make the quickest splashes out of the gates. Teams are finding quality in the top-4 rounds every year the past 5-6 seasons. We just keep picking the duds. AJ Brown, Deebo, Metcalf, Diontae, JJ, G Wil, Lamb, St. Brown, Chase, Aiyuk, Higgins, Pittman, Waddle, Nico, Olave, Watson, Pickens, Dell, whether high pick or mid-rounds, we're continuously missing out on talent. We're just flat out picking the wrong dudes.

He's the guy making Bo Nix look like a top prospect. He's having a mammoth season. The Pac-12 this year has so much talent. Big locker room guy, vocal, speedy, smooth, big play threat. Really solid guy, some stuff to work on but you can't teach his in game quickness. Already considered one of the top WRs in Oregon history. I find him and Odunze super impressive.
