Not a bad photo...

Overall Impact/First Impressions: The first thing I see is an absence of color.  The shutter speed you used produced a pleasing effect in the subject although I prefer slightly longer shutter speeds for this sort of scene. For stationary photos I recommend bracketing several different shutter speeds so you have the opportunity to pick the most pleasing effect. Cam is normally a great element to include in a sports scene, but in this case my eye sees a big dude praying. Had you captured this person at a church it may have given a complementary backstory. Given the opportunity I usually like to take the same scene with and without people.

Composition: Nicely balanced composition with the stadium placed in the one third/two-thirds position. The square crop is a pleasing rendition with just the right amount of awesome.

Tone: The brilliant QB in an otherwise dark scene presents a difficult challenge in controlling excessive contrast. You’ve struck a good compromise in providing detail in the shadows without blowing out too much of the subject. However, there still may be room for improvement (see below).

No clue what this means, but if nothing else it seems as though you are smart. Not quite Donald Trump smart, but maybe close.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
