Canales is definitely limited by the skill set of his QB. In my opinion. Not that if he weren’t it would look like some genius razzle dazzle offense, it probably would be middle of the road conservative. edit: definitely appreciate the meaningful games in December aspect.

Yeah I wasn’t that concerned with W-L either. Agree that evaluation is paramount. I had hoped the last 9 games were going to clarify the situation but is still just as murky over halfway through that stretch. With more bad than good games. There are rules to these contracts and they favor the teams when it comes to service time. If he holds out he doesn’t get credo for the year. I know they do the technical move of coming back just under the wire so they can get contractual credit for the year but if they really played hardball they wouldn’t have to play him, and he couldn’t show how much of that big money he was worth from the bench We have some leverage. If he doesn’t convincingly demonstrate that he will not drag us down but instead has turned the corner and will help us win, I don’t know how you give him the money. You can’t pay him big time money for a poo game then a good game over and over like this year has been.

This is your perception and is subject to bias. Before the game was over for ten minutes there was a thread created saying the option was being picked up. Many comments For Bryce include digs my friend. Most of them. You likely gloss over that when you see it. Probably because you agree, even though you seem able to refrain from making those types of comments yourself.

I think having that injury happen the first game last year allowed him to thoroughly rehab and not try to hurry back. They took it a little easy on him and that was apparently more of a precaution.. early in the year they weren’t using him to try and get a pass rush.

I don’t know that it will even take a few more. That was about as HELLO they actually Will throw it deep as it gets in terms of impact and being noticed. But it should pay off somewhere else. Something will be given less attention, the coaches will need to find it quickly. The protection was excellent on those, pressure might be something people need to counter with.

And as they successfully raise the talent floor, it gets harder to find a handful of contributors in a given draft. I mean a low talent floor is likely at least partially a factor in so many late rounders getting playing time. At the same time, players need meaningful reps IN Games, to really develop. A lot of guys don’t get that on better teams. So we could probably develop guys here better than a stacked roster. Lots of variables.

Not specific to this but in general as to your criticisms…. When we say he played well, excellent, are complimentary and placing credit, why can’t that be enough? Because it seems that we must go the next step and say that he is our future and to pick up the option, extend him, something like that for people to stop saying we hate him. To satisfy the pro Bryce bunch. I am not ready to do that off of a good week when the next week and the week before do what they do. There are years of it.

Definitely appreciate him. He can change the game even without strip sacks and batted passes.

Answered my criticism, not question, that it should be included. Yes. That has to be a component of an NFL offense. Edit: And yeah do it earlier. No doubt. It was pretty obvious why it worked, and is because it was a complete surprise.

He’s gonna get burned going to that well too often. It only works because it goes against the tendencies. Once they give that strategy some due diligence you are looking at 59/50 balls at best. (In that situation).

Lying? What is the above? If what you say is lying, is lying, you are just as guilty. Packers 2023 was basically the 4th quarter. And it was really good but it was basically maybe 1/3 of the game. And you will recall he followed that up with two 0 point efforts to finish the year. What happened in the 1st half of this years Cardinals game? Who won it? Miami, he made three or four good passes after putti g us in a deep hole all by himself, and Rico and the OL crushed it to take control of that game. Dallas this year he had crap numbers but played well for all 4 quarters which sort of stood alone. That isn’t what he usually does. (And it was a very good game by him). Yesterday, was really good. Absolutely. Answered probably my biggest criticism by throwing the ball downfield. That LA defense was asleep. And I am grateful to them. That poo is on film now, Let’s see what adjustments get made because that was too easy. If it was your defense that gave it up you would be screaming how did you let that guy beat you over the top?

That is a tall order.

I don’t know the density of the 2026 draft class either but this last one was a rare draft, how many teams ever get those results? If we could get three out of the next one I’d consider it a big win.

Yeah we are eating off of this draft. It will be a lot harder to repeat this as the roster improves. We had a lot of holes and I think that is why some of these guys are contributing. But it is exactly what we needed when we needed it.

Leave the gun, take the Canales. Maybe, Coach Perv

A couple of absurd things happened. Pulling off of those 4th down completions not just for a 1st but long TDs was nuts. Everything had to be right, almost perfect. Twice. Exciting as hell to watch that game. Problem is, he makes one statement one week and the next makes just as big a statement as to how much he can suck. I don’t know how you count on getting good Bryce when you are in a season that is at least half full of bad games. This is a mess.

It was just full of answers. The ST put us in a huge hole to start the game with. So not positive about that phase to be honest. Our return coverage has been an issue at times this year. I forget which game, it was recent and we scored to get a lead or close the gap and then immediately allowed a big return. But they answered that first 7 points immediately. Then started taking the ball away. I had almost forgotten about defense being a weapon. But they were yesterday. And then those long TDs on 4th downs. Someone had a horseshoe up something to get Two of those.

Whatever buddy. Go back to sleep.

Everybody made too much of that. The CBA and the 17 game schedule is what kills the cohesion we see in teams across the league in the opening games. You decide, look at your depth and make informed decisions there or you get a an extra quarter or whatever two quarters with your ones. Teams that are set don’t have those openings as much down the roster to evaluate but that ain’t everybody. It is a quandary. I think they need that 4th preseason game back. But as I said, I don’t lay that as the excuse for Bryce to come out looking like he does to start seasons. He has an entire camp.

Hey I said the 1pm west coast team, I said the up down up down and we were due for the up week. You can’t know what is going to happen. There was a guy that detailed why the league would engineer a Panthers win to bring LA Rams back to the pack in conference standings. Who really knows, and how much real belief do you have when citing these things? I generally have as much as my superstition allows. It rarely rises to an emotional experience. Usually it is more analytical. In terms of interest. When crazy poo happens and we win a game like today I for sure enjoy it. I mean you have to think about it, how many times do you connect 2 4th and short situations for TDs? Who does that? That is like the most embarrassing thing for the Rams’ defense lol. That never happens and should never happen. Expecting it to happen might not be a good plan. But it was pretty great

Lol this poo is gibberish.

Please don’t say new contract. 5th year option is rough enough to consider. That’s 2 more years. What if it’s the same next year? We need to wait.

That’s not bad.

How did I see this coming? Took sacks to be taken out of FG range, points off the board. Where is that stat?

Oh please. I think you have something on your chin. It has been Bryce every year. You really think a couple of more series in preseason throwing vanilla poo stops that? I guess you do. I don’t, not for a minute. He is still good week bad week and we are in week 13.
