Even if Dante plays well it probably wasn’t a bad move.

It shouldn’t take all season to figure this out.

17 No matter what. He’ll get what he earns.

I'm like “don’t call us, we’ll call you"

I don’t think Frank really knew it was what it was, until he got the kid into the building. They were saying, it’s all on film. You have to go back to the film. I saw film of his pro day.They were there. It is inexplicable.

Yep. Tepper wants to destroy the traditions. I wish I could wish him gone.

I am going to try and pretend 2023 never happened, we got our QB after trading back into the 3rd round. Or maybe, that 2023 did happen and Bryce was great but the government needed his processor (or something) and this is the best guy we could get once Taylor Heinicke nixed a trade.

I got my personal day reserved for the Jets week scrimmages.

Pads and hitting please.

We’ll find out. Some guys are practice heroes some need a real game to get going. I thought I read that he was a full out at practice guy so maybe that doesn’t apply. We’ll find out soon enough.

Those deep ball stats show a huge gap between Jimmy G and Purdy. I’m not really a stats guy but there is such a difference there it seems like it isn’t happenstance.

No, that isn’t it. We don’t fuging care. So, given the carpet bagging mentality we’re dealing with it was probably for the fans of other teams who take over the home team stadium in Charlotte NC.

I appreciate that you answered. Looking at your ‘specs’ Imma say I bet you are built more like Murray than like our man. I’m bored but still it would be nice to put the questions about his size to rest. There are different claims.

We are generally a lot nicer about it than that.

I’m gonna hold out for the great camp report stories.

If that happens it’ll be the leaving the pocket early and throwing OB, the being sacked with two damned fingers, the coughing the ball up on unnecessary sacks, the deep ducks and probably lowlights that do not yet exist. I’ve had a couple beers and this is what I really think. I can also squint hard and see a dink and dunk and some 50/50 Russell Wilson style punt passes, with a strong running game and minimized reliance on the QB and tripling our 2023 win total. Woot. didn’t realize I did 2 in a row. Oops. Apologies.

204 lbs baby! HOSS. What do you guys think he really weighs? I’m not sure it’s 180. Maybe. And it is true that if he balls out that is all that matters.

I used to work a lot of music gigs and the summer you’d need 3 shirts at least. When it was 35 degrees in January at 2am, I reminded myself about July and felt better. But this is football./ You are supposed to sweat like hell, and drink the gatorade and suffer and build up your stamina in this heat because when you face a team early in the year that has worked out in air conditioning, guess what? Biut they could have at least got them a double wide.

Morgan excited me a couple of times. When he starts talking about football players. I know he knows about that part. I don’t think I’ve heard anyone say they just want football players for a while. Young this year... it has to be put up or shut up. If you’re gonna be the guy, be the guy. If you are not gonna be the guy, sit the hell down.

I don’t harp on his height, but it is a factor as is his size. He has a lot to overcome. So we’ll see. Talking about stats correlating... to say there are no stats correlating, how many QBs his size are there to garner stats from in the first place? Is that a fair question? There aren’t like, any comps in the modern day that come to mind I’m probably forgetting someone but besides Murray.... ? Imma joke, it’s hard to bat a ball down when they are throwing it sideways OB. But that ain’t the real risk it happens with all of them.

The thing is on those freelance plays we did have Alabama open, a few times, it seems like that happens more the longer the play can be extended. Pop wide open 15-20 yards downfield he can get it there. Doesn’t have to be a rope. But how often can he extend the play long enough for that to happen? His margins are so small. I swear they need to figure out some way to seal off the backside pursuit on a ‘rollout’ type of move. I am not smart enough to figure out a good plan on that one.

The near field methodical game doesn’t fare well when time is short, for one thing. And we know the defense has to be forced to defend the whole field for an offense to have a good chance. Too easy for them minus that. So that is job number one to me if you want to be competitive.

Didn’t think it very long. poo was over in preseason looking back. This is different as can be. You had Brown from one school and the HC in a different one. The two guys now, are like little peas in a pod. I assume agreement with no huge compromises between the two needing to be baked in. No guarantees but that is a thing that you like having. It is the most interesting thing going on this season. I mean, whether Young can step up is almost secondary to do they have a great plan. To me. Because if he cannot execute the plan, at least we know they can do that. If he can, gravy.

Respectable to me means looking like a middling NFL team as opposed to a team that couldn’t beat the Washington Generals.

I read two articles from alleged professional writers and was not told which side he tore. If it’s his plant foot seems like it would be tougher. But how much actual running is he doing these days? He may be able to hang, but at that age something else might go.
