James Bradberry - Legend in the Making

[Mr. Scot]

You know, I'm pretty sure every play counts in a game.

He'll be asking for top corner money in a couple years and Getty will let him go with no compensation

You would be wrong.

So, on a 15 play drive that results in a TD against the defense, every play matters? Compare that to a 3 play drive for a defense that results in a punt. Are you seriously going to value the 15 play drive greater than the 3 play drive for a defense? The only thing that matters on that 15 play scoring drive are all the bad plays that allowed 1st downs and the TD. All the bad plays on the 3 play drive are forgotten and the play or plays that ended the drive are significantly greater than any play on the 15 play TD drive.

Reverse the situation, and the same goes for the offense. All 15 plays are worthless for an offense if they can not score.

The value of a single play is not equal to all other plays. The same reason the value of a SB or conference championship win is not the same as a win in the season for a 1-15 team.

This is a team game and the result for the team determines the value for a player - not the other way around. There is a reason the teams with the best records in the NFL produce more pro bowlers/all pros.

It seems like many people would prefer tennis or golf to the game of football.

It is not about the play. It is about the drive and how the play impacts the drive. Currently, Bradberry and Worley allow more first downs than drive ending plays. They do that consistently.

Bradberry is also lucky Worley is opposite him to share on teams picking them apart. He would be destroyed if her were the weakest link on the team.

Yes, every play counts. Those of us who actually played the game understand that well.

But by all means keep going. Your posts are generally good for a laugh.

Well, unless Bradberry hires an inexperienced idiot for an agent, or refuses to sign a franchise tag then pretends he was going to all along, I'm not too worried.

I bet CPK is miserable to watch a game with. Everything he types is negative and over done

He makes me look positive, it's impressive actually.

Our owner isn't an overreacting fan.  If it was up to some people on here, we'd have a new GM every year

Holy fug this CPK guy is trying to win worst poster of the year. I mostly just lurk around here but seriously dude? You have talked poo about every single thing related to the team this year. You may possibly be the worst "fan" of this team ever. You're not even trolling, you literally believe the poo that you are spewing out of your pie hole. I dont know whether to be pissed off at you or just sad for you.

Let me know when he does this on a play that matters and impacts the game. They still scored a TD on that drive. This was a good play, but it is a FLASH. You do not make pro bowls and the hall of fame to become a legend with a FLASH every few games. He should not be starting this year, and he will take at least 3 seasons to develop. See Kony Ealy - who is clearly not a capable starter.

As for the press coverage, that was a clear out route. The receiver is suppose to keep him close and shield him from the play. If any CB gets beat badly on a clear out route, I would be very concerned.

When he becomes consistent and makes plays in pressure situations to end a drive or impact the game, then I will gladly acknowledge him as a legit starter. His run defense still sucks and he does not like to give up his body and hit ball carriers. He also needs to stop giving up 1st downs. He is consistent at that part of the game - giving up 1st downs.

I literally read the first sentence, thought who the hell said that, scrolled back up, saw it was CPK and thought doh, scrolled back down without even reading the rest. Most negative poster on the board right now.
