so the rams cut him but he will be carolinas miracle? lol

I read he missed or was late for a meeting Saturday. He's kind of been like Lafell was for us. They kept waiting for this kid to breakout but he never did.

He's got pretty solid hands though. Made a huge catch week 1 against Tampa late in the 4th

Bucs just signed Trindon Holliday and released rookie return man Solomon Patton.  I thought he was pretty impressive on the returns I saw him on, but I know...   "Herp, the Bucs cut him, and he is supposed to be the answer here, derp."

 

Well, to be fair, they let Underwood go pretty quick, and that obviously didn't work out so well for us. I think he's still an FA too. Ugh.

Yeah, but I think that is the issue with our FO.  Too many times we stick with a guy that we shouldn't, and then completely ignore some guys that are available at positions of need that we shouldn't.

 

Underwood just wasn't very good, and I get the feeling that he was signed as a sort of pacifier for everyone because of all of the losses we incurred over the offseason, and that wasn't long after losing Ginn, IIRC.  He just wasn't good.

Wasn't a done deal yet, but is now.

I hope against all hope that Gettleman is on the phone with his agent now... but, I know in all likelihood he's not. Nor will he be... le sigh.

I don't know...

He's not a burner and i wouldn't consider him a weapon but he's had reliable hands during his career. He can also be had for very cheap. Pretty much the definition of a Gettleman WR signing no?

Bad day for guys named Solomon in Tampa...

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
