Im not arguing with that..If you are evaulating talent and you have only found 3 guys better than Bersin then you have your work cut out for you..Thats all I am saying..If he is great in practice why is he not on the field on 3rd downs more?  This is not a knock on Bersin but more so on the coaching staff...We wasted plenty of time on ginn, tolbert, dickson..and others that were not performing worth a poo. If your backups are not worth a poo what the hell is going on then..ive seen other teams put new players in and they perform decent

You do realize that Bersin has been cut twice and when he has been on the team, he rarely even gets a uniform on Sundays, right?  When he has been active and got to play, they did put him in on 3rd downs.

I feel Kaelin Clay will beat out Byrd and win the 5th WR spot.

I have been wondering about Clay too. I had assumed that he was a camp body, but his name keeps coming up in a positive way. Add that to what he brings as a returner, and he might have a shot. I admit that I haven't been paying a whole lot of attention for the last few days, but he appears to be trending upward. Anyone know how he's doing overall?

The problem is that none of these "potential" guys have outplayed Bersin, so far. All that potential don't mean jack squat unless it translates to the field.

Exactly. see Stephen Hill if you need an example of someone with all the potential in the world, but got outplayed by Bersin. 

FWIW, I do hope that we are able to find someone that can be better than Bersin to round out our roster, but Byrd hasn't proven that (to me) yet. Philly outplayed Bersin, got his roster spot, and now has moved on.

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years.

      Todd Bowles is losing his locker room… Canales meanwhile

      By amcoolio · Posted

      All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
