Well, we don’t have a ball spotting coordinator for one thing. It seems like be hard really, to visually confirm what YL the ball sits on from ground level, easy to miss. Not from the press box level, someone up there should have noticed.

Yeah I know what you wrote. What advantage does Bryce have that Canales ignores? In order to make the analogy between him and a coach whose player has advantages, there must be advantages being overlooked and not used. Is how I meant it.

What advantage would that be?

If we didn’t have Bryce at QB in 2023, no way we get the 1st pick. That we were so stupid, and turned our stupidity into this for Chicago? Exponentially worse outcome.

Only for us.

I look at drafting LOT, or OT, as cap friendly. It doesn’t look like we will be dropping 100 million on Icky. We will hopefully uncoupling the bank from Hunt after a couple more years. We won’t be paying Moton forever. I can’t see anything good that would come from underserving the OL and tight now it is LOT that needs addressing. Naturally I’d prefer not to use a 1st round pick but we don’t have the luxury of taking a guy in the 3rd and giving him a couple of seasons to develop. If we have to use it just make it count.

It made me want to not be sober. They made our offense look about like it looks like without makeup. This is tough, I hate both franchises.

I don’t think he does it for money. I think he would be great at it.

thanks for getting the name right. Lol. Yeah I think it was probably Hayden. Getting blown off the LOS.

It really does seem like there is a standard for players and then over here in a separate box, we have the Bryce standards. Graded on a curve. I said before 2024 that he could improve and be twice as good and that would still leave him as a subpar player. And that is what happened. Finally this year he had a couple of games that would be good for anyone. But so much of the rest is mediocre production and a small band of people pushing that as good enough. Proof. Now we are nearing the end of the theoretically beneficial rookie deal bargain years. Stakes are getting much higher. One more season of bargain left,

I feel like at three years here, he could take the mentor training wheels off. Aside from that I wonder about whatever advice he needs from Dom concerns… he should know his XOs cold. I would think a mentor could help more with things like how to handle problems with his staff, with his boss, issues with players, more stuff like that than XO stuff.

I always looked at the Burns booty as including the money saved by not paying him, along with the draft picks. And looked at the 150 million spent on guards as representing that savings. It comes out to about a wash, 30 million per goes to Burns or to protect the little fella. You know who gets the attention. Not the defense. And no doubt we were screwed when the LAR trade proposal and those details leaked.

I wonder who he would try and take with him off our staff, should he actually get hired. Hope Morgan has a good contact list.

Might have been Hayes? Def could have been McClain.

All fan bases have people that are gonna grumble about imperfection. It is part of it. That doesn’t always rise to the level of serious ‘get rid of them’ sentiments. It is just wanting more. Lots of people are hard to satisfy. I am for sure hard on any player making many millions of bucks, I just expect a lot for the tens of millions they get paid. The thing about QBs is people make them golden calves - where you can’t say things about ‘their QB’. Even though they are saying the same type of stuff all the time about other players…..
