You were literally invited to copy and paste your post in one of the already existing threads where we're shitting on Bryce. At some point we just don't need another one.

At some point we don't need the thousandth iteration of this thread. Yeah, we know. Pick one of the other threads and copy and paste this.

I could only tolerate a minute of that but I honestly think that energy was the exact same energy the Falcons brought to that game. The completely overlooked us because they saw it as an easy day at the office.

We got people dunking over 16/24 for 121 yards and 0 TDs, 2 carries for 8 yards like it was an impressive achievement. I mean... that says everything about how it's been going.

I mean, Bryce did dig us a massive hole last week before playing well against soft D and then folding like a lawn chair when they had to start playing stingy again out of need. And we did play a team that turned the ball over at will yesterday while failing to do much as cross their own 30 yard line all game long allowing us to win 30-0 while passing for 121 yards and 0 TDs with a 5 yards per attempt average. I don't think we learned anything new about Bryce yesterday. Whatever you thought of him going into yesterday you probably still think.

The powers that be were clearly NOT anticipating a noon matchup between two teams desperately trying not to be at the bottom of the ACC for this one. Luda hitting the stage at 10AM. It is way too damn early in the day to be getting that crunk to watch bad football. LOL Ya know, I honestly think I would've just cancelled it even if it meant paying him not to show.

Tremayne has earned the right to play over XL, that's for sure. Granted the bar to clear for that is on the floor but still. Honestly, when Coker returns I want to see T-Mac, Tremayne, and Coker getting heavy dose of snaps. The Bryce/Renfrow connection is just not planning out and XL has produced virtually nothing.

Let's just hope he keeps looking good. DJ is still out #3 all-time WR by a comfortably margin despite only playing 5 seasons for us. Our history at WR is just awful.

I really think they came into that game cocky thinking the W was guaranteed and they could use it as an opportunity to work on some different stuff. You just can't take any game for granted in the NFL. At the end of that day, that team might suck relative to the other NFL teams but it's still comprised of some of the best football players on the planet. There's a MUCH smaller talent gap between the #1 and the #32 NFL team than there is the #1 and #32 college team. Hell, there's probably a smaller gap between #1 and #32 in the NFL than there is #1 and #10 in college.

We'll see. I mean, I don't see us winning many games where we barely throw for under 130 yards and 0 TDs. So I'm not worried about that. If we end up with a better than expected record then Bryce will have to put up significantly better numbers.

I mean, Hampton is on pace for 1200+ total yards. I think he'll get it going on the ground, he's looked good as a receiver. The alarming thing about Jeanty is that he just puts zero effort in on plays where he's not the focal point. Now I'm sure he was accustomed to taking plays off on the field at Boise State because he was the entire focus of the offense and opposing defense but you just can't do that at the NFL level.

It looks like we got this year's top 10 pick right. At least there's that.

I just think Russ is gonna lose the locker room after that poo. Teammates will stick with you through mistakes as long as you're trying to give them a chance a lot longer than they'll stick with you just obviously going through the motions to cash a check.

I'd put Winston out there. Russ is pure ass. You can't have three goal line throwaways turning it over on downs. That's just inexcusable. He looks like a guy who's happy with his career accomplishments and is just willing to cash a check from a bad team for as long as he can. Getting benched might come as a relief. He can still cash those checks without taking hits.

Too early to mention the "B word" but with his lack of production so far and utter disregard in pass protection, people are getting frustrated with #6 overall pick Ashton Jeanty.

Cool. So only 20 of the 24 losses? LOL

This. It's been full on struggle bus for years. Let 'em enjoy it. I'd MUCH rather win now when it might matter if we can get our act together versus winning late season throwaway games that are doing nothing but knocking us down the draft board.

I sure hope so. Let him leave the Panthers alone.

Now how many of the 24 losses in his 31 starts would we say that Bryce was directly or partially responsible for? There have been VERY few games that we've lost where Bryce has played well and let down by the team around him.

It wouldn't at all surprise me if they came into this game thinking it was basically a glorified joint practice where they could get the W while trying to work on some things. It doesn't matter how bad your opponent is in the NFL you can't look past them. That team is full of guys who were all conference and all American in college and were 1st or 2nd day draft pics and guys who are making millions of dollars to play football. Yeah, they may relatively suck in relation to the rest of the league but don't get too cocky.

Yeah, I screenshotted the wrong thing. See above. It's actually worse. LOL

Is that what I said? Or is that just what you want to argue against? Let's take a look at his "game winning drives" last year. First up, the 2-7 Saints... Nice 26 yards completion going 1-4 for 26 yards with Chuba scoring on the ground from 16 yards out getting helped by 22 yards in penalties. Next up, the 2-8 Giants... Literally nothing. We recovered a fumble already in FG range. Next up, the Cardinals... Again, literally nothing. Two plays, 2 20+ yard runs by Chuba. But Bryce gets another "GWD" on the stat sheet. Finally against the Falcons we have what most fans would consider a legit game winning drive...

Sports media is trying to act like Arch has arrived after having a great game against lowly 0-4 Sam Houston. Meanwhile, the internet is absolutely cooking Arch for flexing on 0-4 Sam Houston like he was really accomplishing something when he's looked like hot garbage against any decent team so far. LOL

And then you have potential game winning opportunities like last week...

I'm just saying that "game winning drive" can be misleading. They're not all created equally.
