Yeah, because your opinion means much more than people who have been working and studying football for entire lives who actually work for the team.

When he's the only option you have, he has to play. Doesn't make him any better. Sorry, pal.

I didn't say he was an all-pro, but I think you have a false sense of self worth when it comes to evaluating talent.

This thread is being flooded with sheeple. Bell is not very good accept it. No matter how much he is a great guy and you want to like him he just sucks at football. I saw someone mention that amini is just as bad...well amini road grades people in the run game and is basically only in his second year.

I 've never seen bell destroy anyone except cams backside and that awesome practice speech.

 

The role of a fan, the 12th man of a team is to support your team and so the players, a well supported player will play much better. this is obvious for the majority but obviously not everyone......

He's a starter at the sports highest level. Whether he is one of the better players in the NFL or not he does not suck at football.

Lurker here...

 

So I'm sure you think Marty Hurney did exactly what needed to be done and you never second guessed his personnel decisions. After all, he knew much more than we do, right?

 

I really hope Byron Bell can get better but there's no doubt he's struggled and I question the constant praising him. Most fans I've talked to outside of CH agree.

I didn't say that.

The dude said Byron Bell has the talent of a 3rd stringer and that's just not true.

It's almost impossible for a fan to judge the play of the o-line without a knowledge of game-plan and assignments above any other position (unless they are just getting abused physically), so really most are just talking out of their ass when it comes to players like Byron Bell.

The problem is Bell was consistently ranked one of the worst RTs in football last year.  It isn't just 2 plays a game.  It is enough plays that it is hurting your team.  

 

2 points I want to make to that ..

 

1. It was at RT so he could be just as bad, worse or better at LT.  Thus every ones wait and see comment.

2. Was it the rating difference between one of the worse and one of the best?  I'm only saying if you took out say his 2 worst games where would he rate? Or does 1 sack or miss assignment moves his grade from middle of the pack to almost last?  I don't know tbh.

He'll be talking out of his own ass every time he lines up against a mediocre DE. Prepare to get blown up.

      Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
