  1. Yeah, I doubt it. I just don't think he has NFL tools. He would need a Goff style landing spot where everything is setup perfectly for him and even then, I just think he's too physically limited to be a legit starting QB in the NFL.
  2. I think Tua is seeing ghosts out there a lot of times. Not in the Sam Darnold "oh no, I might throw an INT" way but in the "OMG, I don't wanna die" way.
  3. https://www.facebook.com/MEMES.of.the.NFL/videos/779983564773360/ LOL
  4. Oof. Dolphins rough the punter. Brutal.
  5. Dolphins came to play tonight. At 0-2 they're desperate. Mathematically speaking your odds of making the playoffs drop to less than 3% if you go 0-3. Your season is practically over.
  6. Just saw the option to watch with Next Gen stats or whatever and I love the camera view. It's from the eye on the sky camera and you see the whole field. I'd LOVE to watch every game from this viewpoint. What I HATE is that they're highlighting eligible receivers. It's distracting as hell. Just give me the eye in the sky view without the highlighted players and it'd be perfect.
  7. Really well done by the Dolphins on that drive.
  8. Tua is just terrible if you can move him off his spot. He's an efficient if unspectacular passer in the pocket but as soon as he has to move the play is basically over.
  9. Dolphins started out promising but it doesn't feel like they can afford to go down two scores in this one. They better bow up here.
  10. I mean, to be fair you did act like the fact he's starting on a horrible team means he's automatically better. God knows there's plenty of backups around the league better than some of the guys we're trotting out there as starters. Starting just means that you're perceived to be the best option on that roster at the moment. Nothing more, nothing less.
  11. No telling. Tepper has a crazy quick trigger finger at times but then will keep guys like Hurney and Rhule hanging around after everyone is ready to pull the plug on the failure.
  12. From a fan's perspective? Sure. But Canales and Morgan might not have until the next off-season given the state of this dumpster fire and we have a lot of other young offensive pieces to try to evaluate.
  13. If we're trying for a bandaid this season I don't want to spend much.
  14. Im talking about the now. If you're Canales and Morgan you might not have until next April.
  15. Well, Bryce is a HS QB so seems fitting.
  16. fug it , I'm in. Sign her. Which one you ask?
  17. The only potential immediate solution I can see is trying to trade a late round pick for someone's backup QB that actually has NFL tools. NFL defenses have thoroughly figured out how to take away the things Bryce actually does well. If I'm an opposing HC I'm telling my DC to do NOT let up and go soft unless we're up big late in the 4th. Start focusing on containment with the pass rush and playing soft zone behind it and you're just giving Bryce a life line. You're giving him all the stuff he actually does well while focusing on taking away the stuff he struggles with. Just keep the pressure on and stick to the game plan, we're not playing a typical NFL QB that might make you pay by burning you deep while you're being aggressive.
  18. The QB is basically the engine of an offensive machine and we have a lawnmower engine in a dump truck. Ain't no tuning your way out of that lack of horsepower.
  19. It's just hard when the entire opposing D is within 10 yards of the LOS every snap because they're not afraid of the QB beating them deep. Defenses are focusing on taking away the run and the short to intermediate passing game. Bryce plays well when we're trailing big and the opposing D starts playing soft allowing for the short to intermediate passing game to be implemented but when they have their ears pinned back executing their game plan we basically can't move the ball.
  20. Yeah, Dave doesn't seem like a "muh scheme" type of coach where he wants plays drawn up for his QB to robotically go through a preprogrammed process. He seems like more the type of coach that just wants his scheme to produce opportunities for a QB to be a playmaker. It's a scheme you'd love to play in as a QB and it's the type of scheme that should work really well for the "point guard mentality" QB they tried to sell us on Bryce being and the type of QB he was at Alabama but at the NFL level all of those physical shortcomings that seemed plainly evident to many of us on the college field are showing up in a big way. Even with his bad decisions I honestly think a lot of it is that he's struggling to see the field. I don't mean that figuratively in that he's misreading the defense or missing open receivers, I mean that literally in that I think he's struggling to see the field over the lines of 6'4"+ huge men in front of him. Reich used to talk about creating throwing lanes for Bryce to see through and holy poo... if you need throwing lanes now you've massively shrunk your opportunities. Now you're trying to play QB through a picket fence. If you watched him play at Bama, you saw him routinely drop back 10-15 yards behind the LOS to gain depth so that he could see over the scrum. You just can't do that routinely in the NFL. NFL pass rushers are just too good. Your OTs can't create that deep of a pocket.
  21. You gotta do something. I mean, we have a starting WR doing nothing. And yeah, a lot of the balls coming his way are pretty much uncatchable but you gotta try something different. Maybe it's unpolished route running, maybe it's an inability to make contested catches, maybe it's a chemistry issue. I don't know what it is but we're getting virtually zero production out of a starting WR.
  22. When Coker comes back we have to replace XL in the lineup with him. Playing XL at this point practically amounts to playing 10 vs. 11.
  23. I believe that if you have a drug test at work coming up you better find you some clean piss and tape it to your leg.
  24. In 118 snaps so far this season, Xavier Legette has managed to amass an entire 8 more yards of offense than a Huddle poster. 4 catches for 8 yards and 1 rushing attempt for 0 yards.
