You guys are missing the big picture looking at your little dots. It's comical that you ridicule others for seeing what you are unable to process.

Having your worst pick ever will pull down a grade.

Yeah. Wallace is getting beat his ass beat right now and will be learning how not to get his ass beat for a while. It's okay as long as he learns and he will.

Wrong thread.

Are you saying it is easier to fix Bryce Young than to find a better option? I think that is your point so I'll respond to that. Better is really easy; take one of the UFDAs like Bagent of the other one the beat us last year... I forget who it was. Doesn't matter. The point is that unheralded nondescript guys are better for the NFL than Young. or the right option meaning the best, It was pretty easy last year as long as you didn't forget it is the NFL we are talking about not college. Pick the guy that looks like he could be what we have seen succeed in the league before. And we had three guesses besides Bryce. They fuged up a slam dunk. As fas as fixing him, first I don't think you are really acknowledging his issues. They are so deeply fundamental to his play that he has to to be totally rebuilt. But you have the restriction that you can't improve any of his physical shortcomings, that's a factory issue. So taking him as he is, and turning that into an NFL capable player that can read defenses and beat them with his arm, may as well hope to bring peace to the Middle East.

Me too. He has been horrible to watch play. I mean from the 1st game where he threw those two picks. Funny thing is, when that game happened I was bewildered, not sure at all what I was watching. But it was so bad. I remember trying to figure out what I had seen and trying to make sense of it. After watching him try to play for a season, I went back to check a couple of things and it didn't seem that bad. We have been conditioned to a new low bar for not that bad.

You need to find out if he would stay.

Irma even got us up here. I think it was the first one in all my years here that put storm surge over here on the SC coast and was a gulf storm. I think we had 4-5 feet of surge on top of high tide it was crazy.

That Miami Tennessee game is horrible. Not as horrible as we were before Dalton but not good.

So, we are a farm team now. they take Young also, maybe we can talk.

Sure. You have to know when to leave. After a point it’s too late to leave. Down here I have learned to understand how to wait to the last minute and which way to head. Lots of people left here before Hugo to go inland and get a room if you can find one, only to get whacked with high winds and tornados and stuff. I have it down… wait until I know where it is really going, and give the thousands and thousands of people time to get out and the roads to be clear of that standstill traffic. You have to know. I knew people that stayed in Garden City during Hugo they swore they would never be that stupid again lol A direct hit over Cat 1 or you are in the NE quadrant, you don’t want to be there.

You know that we are no longer important to them.

I’m gonna say that two weeks ago this was a lock. Maybe his info is not fresh.

Thanks. I guess I have some reading to do I don’t have any local knowledge about previous water events. PS I think in the future the people who lived and paid little mind, don’t do that again. For years and years I have had to prepare for hurricanes that were less than predicted mostly because they missed us. You can’t afford to ignore the threat.

You probably already saw the 'practice window' thread. No Brooks this week.

So, you guys up that way... What were you expecting? Were people being warned? With the deaths, it sounds like a hurricane party and no one talkng it seriously, but I was not there to know so am curious.

Lord Icege, get real. I hate to have to so strenuously object to your claims but no. That's comical, and I hope you don't really believe that.

Yes sir. Broken, can I call it a factory second or something? A mini Cooper trying to do offroad. He is just a bad design with that tippy toe and the horrible footwork and the jumping and the whole. Man it's been ugg lee all the way. Anyway, peace.

The former, huge factor. No continuity. The latter, I don't believe they were the reason for Bryce Young, all the other draftees, yeah. Big hand in that. But the last couple of drafts looked like coaches influenced some things. Getting their guys. Evero wanted DJ last year, for example. Canales wanted XL I think. Stuff like that is mixed in.

We could list who they had to replace. But we were short the previous season over there with the 3rd rounder on edge setting duty. People talking about it was hidden because teams didn't need to exploit them all game to win. It wasn't just who we lost after 2023. We never had it right to start with. What are those guards making APY? I guess I'm sour also because of the extended time that Lewis was missing in camp/preseason, and played three games and out again. I like him, and Hunt could be an annual Pro Bowl type. But so much money on guards...

I remember watching us play the Cowboys in '09 I think. Watched Nick Hayden get blown off the LOS on runs and pattycaked on passes and being so damned frustrated that we had that for a DT. It's why when Gettleman drafted the two DTs 1 and 2 I fell in love with him. Which didn't last a long time but it was nice then.

Just saying we don't get special treatment on the coast. What we have to pay for insurance would back that up. 35 years of all that stuff, in a high risk flood zone since this place went up. What's happened to those people up there is horrible. They have a hard road for a while.

I am pretty sure he wouldn't have been the guy driving the decision. If he does a good job, and promises he learned his lesson and will never do that again, I'm okay with him. If he does a good job.

Don't know about that. They have all kinds of loopholes. I can underhand throw a bottle or something into the marsh where am, front row. If the saltwater didn't ingress, but the wind blew the roof off let's say, or part of it and the rain ruins everything inside, flood people ain't paying. That includes any damage to the stairs, gutters, outside compressor Heat/AC. I got to beg to FEMA then.

My mind was 95% certain he was not an NFL guy but I didn't have any idea that would be THAT horrible a second year. I was resigned to him being able to string us along and was also dreaming of the high pick after missing out this year. I said 17 games at the top of this, but also I figured I already knew and by 7 or 8 games it would be clear to everyone. Wanted to give him every benefit of the doubt so people would be able to see - time for the OL to get a groove and Brooks to be back and Legette to be worked in some. He is SO bad, poison on the field.
