They usually poke their heads out about eight or nine games in, so lets hear what he has to say. I have supported him through out this collapse, but it is getting harder to do so. Rivera will only give the same old BS comments that mean nothing. The GM needs to step foward and address this situation. This fanbase deserves to hear from him. Enough of the rhetoric and excuses from the underlings.

Nothing he says is going to change anything. We knew the offensive line was bad months ago.... Years ago. Yet nothing has been done, when you have a car or really anything in life in general it is cheaper to keep up regular maintainance than to let it go and have to fix everything all at once. And essentially Thst is what has happened with our offensive line. They're not good, no push, no protection, you can't succeed like that.

It is his job to face the music concerning personal decisions. I would like to hear his response to questions concerning the offensive line etc. That is if any of the beat writers would actually ask the proper questions.

No one in the local media would ask him anything remotely resembling a hard question. It would be 30 minutes of the fat ass sitting up there with that smirk on his face offering up cliches and excuses. Basically nothing different than what we get from Ron every week.

he'll only sip water, answer questions by not answering questions, look down and say, "Jonathan, you know we can't discuss these things"..., clear his throat unsuccessfully 20 times, and see RR sit on his lap as he goes into ventriloquist mode! screw this... its gotten old very quick.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
