My ideal candidates... GM: someone Tepper leaves the fug alone HC: someone else that Tepper leaves the fug alone As long as Tepper insists on heavy involvement and micromanagement we're doomed.

The ball is late. I don't know what Bryce was waiting for since she was staring at Mingo the whole time. Once he crosses midfield and then the hashes the window is getting smaller and smaller with the defender in trail position. If the ball is thrown on time he's hitting Mingo right about midfield and leads him toward the sideline and you have the potential for a positive play. By the time Bryce throws it there's no real possibility of a positive outcome, unless he goes backyard football and lofts it leading Mingo downfield and taking advantage of the DB aggressively trying to play the ball. But throwing a duck toward the sidelines and a broken up pass becomes about the best of likely outcomes.

If Bryce is going to have any chance of success he has to fix his footwork. Like forget everything you're doing right now and start from scratch. He's not ready to throw it when he sees it. His feet and hips are all over the place. Even if he gets his read right or has time to go through his progression, once he identified his opportunity he realizes his feet and hips haven't come with his eyes and by the time he gets his body alignment right the opportunity is passed.

Yep. It's hard to have any sustained success when some level of the offense is shitting the bed on nearly every snap. The OL gets blown up or WRs fail to get separation, or Bryce blows a read or misses a throw. Damn near every snap.

Ugh. It's so bad. The OL is terrible. The receivers just look sooooooo slow. When guys are schemed open Bryce is missing the read more often than not. It's a poo show all the way around.

Oh, I remember. I got attacked for simply pointing out his marginal physical talent while still saying I was okay with drafting him. Because at the end of the day if all these experts think he's just THAT great mentally then surely they're not all wrong. Oops

It's wild how the narrative has shifted. It went from Bryce being one of the most polished, NFL ready QB prospects ever to him being some type of project. A 5'10" buck eighty soaking wet dude with no outstanding physical traits does not go #1 overall unless everything else is deemed basically perfect. All the experts got it wrong. They loved the kid, they loved the idea of this brilliant football savant carving up the league despite obvious physical limitations. But they significantly overrated both his physical and mental talent IMO and that seems obvious at this point.

For me, I wanted Richardson or Stroud depending on the interviews and full evaluations. I basically put myself through mental gymnastics to accept Bryce despite watching his college games and not seeing an NFL physical talent. It was cope.

It's pretty damn deep currently. I mean, next year is already having to be written off and we're already starting to peruse the '25 QB class. Would it really be any worse than that?

If the dumbest Huddler was the GM at very worst we'd have one additional loss. And we might even have a 1st round pick next year.

It's fun football. Sadly a consistently better product than the NFL right now. That they're accomplishing it with a lesser talent pool is an indictment of the NFL not college football.

Watch two good college teams and then watch the Panthers and report back which was a more enjoyable football watching experience.

I just saw where this one was headed when KC was absolutely dominating the game but only up 17-7. It felt like they should've been up by three TDs. Seems like that often comes back to bite you in the ass and it but then tonight.

Kelce is 34. It's normal. I really don't understand how KC didn't find a way to keep Tyreek and pay him. If you can pair Mahomes and Tyreek for the foreseeable future you do it. Because if Kelce retires what do they have for weapons? Rice looks like something to work with for the future but what else?

26 drops from KC this year? Oh wee mayne.

Damn, Mahomes has a hose. That was a laser. Watson drops it. KC really needs WR help this off-season.

KC has a pretty cake schedule down the stretch though.

Oh wow. Dropped bomb. And now it's gonna be intentional grounding. Valdez-Scantling really blew that.

Chiefs with a final drive down four to decide this one.

Oh looky there... 21-17 Eagles now

I'd be nervous right now if I'm KC. It feels like they're dominating this game far more than the 17-7 score reflects. Seems like failing to translate on field domination to the scoreboard ends up biting you in the ass by the end of the game a lot of times.

It's better than the current situation of a completely blown coverage which is what happens if you don't switch it

If the receiver isn't straight up throwing an outright block it just doesn't get called. Defenses have to adjust. Gotta start switching off on picks if you're playing man. And you gotta call out the pick for your teammate. Play it like basketball. It's essentially a basketball play on a football field.

Teams have to adjust to these pick plays. Gonna have to start switching off of picks like in basketball. If you're picked, you play the picker and the free defender takes the man the pick is being set for. Because unless it's just blatant blocking before the pass the refs let the offense get away with it so defenses have to adjust.

It was offsides but I can't believe they missed that DPI. Mr. Swift definitely got interfered with
