How much game film do I need to send you that you haven't seen already?

It's easy to peg one player for a team faltering. Great players often get that responsibility. I'll give you one season, sick or not, but to say that he hasn't proven his worth is disagreeing with any opposing OL we face.

Warranty and outsized expectations are two seperate things.

But, if we are to go down that road, does he get any credit for years like 2004 when he threw the team on his back and they still couldn't do enough to win (think Denver and the second game against Atlanta)?

How about 2006, when he again was a manimal (the game against Baltimore was one of the most unbelivably complete performance by a DE I've ever seen) and Jake's injury and other factors kept him out of the playoffs?

No, I guess not.

Not getting hostile. Just trying to understand your point of view.

Either way, in season, I think it should about the team not about the player. Whats done is done contract wise. He has at least 16 games to prove the coaching staff right and I hope he does.

What part of "half assed" do you not understand? He has done it his whole career.

B-ball, and in NFL. People with his skills, and ability would have taken the NFL by storm, yet he has remained an "average", one of the "better ones" when it comes to comparison with other DE's in the league.

He should dominate, and he doesn't. He doesn't have the heart, or will to do that, and why you people can't see it is beyond me.

The truth...is the truth my friend. :cheers2:

See again with the "truth" poo. You don't kow the truth at all because you only choose what you want to see and refuse to see anything else that goes against your bias.

You mentioned "warranty"...not me, so take that discussion up elsewhere.

So you give me 2 games he played lights out as a reason?? GTFOH!

Give me your address, and I'll mail you DVD's of recorded games where he looks like he is dancing with the stars.

So because he has such great athletic ability no one should ever stand a chance against him? He has a remarkable career in the NFL, one that is peaking now and has a chance at the HOF if he keeps it going at this rate.

Ask any team who they gameplan for and they will immediately spit out his name.

Opinions are opinions also my friend. So lets keep the internet tough guy image to a minimum and discuss things like civil adults. Sound good?

Didn't mean to come across that way, but I'm just sick and tired of all the excuses people make for him..

All is good, and thanks for the pointer. :cheers2:

1. Warranty was your metaphor originally, not mine.

2. I mentioned 2 seasons with three games as concrete examples.

3. Send me your address and I'll show you where every DE in history looks like he's dancing with the stars.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.

      Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.

      It is goofy how some people hate Bryce so much that they're flat out lying to try and remain entitled to their pessimism. It's insanity. Most fans are realists and eagerly awaiting the season to see if we get pre- or post-benching Bryce to start the season and how much he is able to do with some young and developing weapons. Many of us understand that these young guys are going to have growing pains on the job as well as the new defense, but the fans with all of the excuses for why Bryce can't be successful are pounding the no excuses drum. Personally, I'd prefer the Keep Pounding drum.
