Does anybody remember last year ~ Week 1

Everybody was expecting the chargers to be elite instead of stumbiling through the season the way they did early on.

I certainly wasn't expecting to put up 150 rushing yards on them. That's really what suprised me. Even though it was early that confirmed the gaudy preseason numbers we had.

This year all I'm scared of is Andy Reid, he gets his teams ready for the season. They'll destroy us if we don't bring our A+ game.

If we're firing on all cylinders we should win, the eagles have been delt worse cards than we have in the offseason. We should be able to pull it out.

I thought we where a much more confident, unified team at the beginning of last season. Seriously thought we would win that game even though the typically Panther ignorant media didn't. But! I have my homerism in full effect for this week 1 too!

The hunger and the way we ended the previous year unified our young team. I KNEW in training camp last year we was going to do something. I KNEW we was going to win in week 1. Last year all the games we coulda lost, but hung on or fought back showed the confidence in our players. Too bad the things that needed to be fixed, never got fixed

This year its a little different. Too many injuries and not being on the same page because of that. One thing I can say is that atleast our D got whooped in preseason because it made them realize they have to get better and play harder come season time. Maybe it put some things in perspective for our coaching staff. We may start off slow, hopefully we then pick it up

this is a great question because I had no real bead on the upcoming season.

DeA's first full season as THE guy. Rookie tackle with Otah. Wharton coming back from injury.

Moose coming back. Stewart a rookie.

SD was loaded minus Merriman?

Oh and some dude named Steve Smith was OUT after some camp drama.

    • I think at some point you top out what God gave you.  He can use leverage via his mechanics to maximize what he has and When he pays attention to it the throws are better.    IMO as a layman a lot of it is what kind of ‘headroom’ you have. The guys who are gifted don’t have to use maximum effort to get good results and stay within themselves but they have it in reserve. They can do an arm throw for substantial distance without max effort.    I think what we may be seeing with these ‘lasers’ is a throw that Bryce puts the max effort into and does his mechanics right and has his base right and it works together.    To get to the payoff here, I think his best velocity throws take dall that whereas  a naturally gifted guy doesn’t need to go full effort to get that same velocity. I have said this three or four times over the years and it never gets picked up on but the accuracy is more consistent with an easier motion and max effort can produce less predictable location. It is a baseball pitcher thing but it applies to throwing a pass too. It isn’t that you can’t make an accurate throw with full effort it is just not as reliably accurate to the same degree. Someone said something about his pro day and that is where I saw it too. He took a little extra step on the deep throws. Some call it a hitch but I don’t see it that way because I don’t see it on shorter throws. He does it trying to get distance. I saw that and just wanted no part of it at 1.1 . That is not tne characteristic of a 1.1 passer.  He should have been at best, late first  I had him second day. Of course I am no one and certainly not a pro evaluator, it is just that he WS so easy to suss out. They must have thought they could fix him. Changing a lifelong throwing motion with the footwork tied into it is not fuging easy. Anyone that had decent success with ‘their’ way and tried to change it to get more, can tell you that.     
    • Sounds like a tad bit of what Josh Allen had. He would make throws that made zero sense die to his desire to make a make. Bryce also turns the ball over believing their is an unlimited shot clock in those moments. Sometimes the best play is to reset for the next one. 
    • See, I think one of his biggest issues is he bails too early.  His instinct has been to bail as soon as defenders get behind him and the pocket starts to close in. Taller QBs hang in there for that extra second or two and throw over guys as the pocket collapses in the QBs lap.  BY runs as soon as this starts to happen, which means routes don’t have time to develop and the field gets cut in half as soon as he runs. This last game I saw some signs of him being willing to hang in the pocket when the defense gets behind him, but that has been rare.
