Religion has always historically been controversial. That is one reason why he gets media attention because he is so open about it.

 

I personally believe the media loves to keep him around because he is a christian role model in sports, and he is a human being that, like all of us, makes mistakes...

 

They are waiting for a big mistake; a moment of moral weakness, to break a career making story.

 

The media loves failure...because the viewers love seeing successful people fail.

 

Imagine, "The Golden Calf of Bristol arrested for soliciting a prostitute!"

 

Something like that would generate clicks/views which = $$$

I think the controversy is how terrible he is. As an atheist, I could care less what his religious beliefs are, the man simply cannot play QB in the NFL. Yet when I say that, I am suddenly against him because of his faith and how open he is about it.

It does however annoy me the shitstorm and controversy that surrounds a third string QB and the fact that I can't hear anything NFL related this week without hearing the clown's name.

For the same reason this is the hottest current topic on a Carolina Panther message board and 12 pages long. People just can't stop talking about him. They wouldn't be showing it if people didn't care. The media is just feeding people what they want.

My question is still why

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
