Shepard needs to show up and play

Recommended Posts

It's kind of funny how you're the one having a knee jerk reaction on Shepard after just two preseason games where Derek Anderson was legitimately bad and calling me out like I evaluated him wrong or something.

Two. Preseason. Games. Versus. His 2016 Season + Training Camp. 

I'll go with the larger sample size, my own analysis, and the people who actually went to training camp and say he was good and will have a roster spot.

I'm done talking about this. I'll just let you eat crow and complain when Shepard turns out to be a fine WR3 for us and not just a special teamer.

@Saca312, you don't listen. That's just the fact of the matter.

If Shepard turns out to be a fine WR3, it will be because he actually produced, not because of a million gifs on the Huddle.

I simply want the guy to actually do something in the games that justifies his position as the presumptive WR3 in many people's minds. I don't see why that's so hard to understand. I really don't. 

All of the "crow" talk is stupid. If he turns out to be the next best thing to Jerry Rice, I'd be happy as a pig in slop. If he does, it's going to be because he puts some consistent production on film going forward, not the scant production he's had in the past. It's as simple as that.

I'm done!

He thought Charles Johnson would not only replace Ginn but be a better version of him LMAO just cause a few gifs 

 

You can literally do his little gif shtick with any player in the NFL 

Here's Jarrett Boykin, look at the route running, those hands, that separation. yada...yada...yada.....

Most of his threads are for self grandeur anyways, he loves to bump them on put a link to them any time he makes a comment. 

Yeah, he spends a lot of time creating content that a whole lot of people really enjoy then he wants people to read it. 

The nerve.

I see far more positive feedback on his posts than negative, and it isn't close. 

Seems to me instead of people tearing down someone that actually contributes to this joint, they should consider contributing themselves by starting a topic promoting their own viewpoint. 

We have lost a ton of really good Huddlers here. Their feedback to me is always that a few people chased them away due to their constant negativity and trolling. 

So, we are really trying to get things back on track this season. Make this joint fun again. Otherwise, whats the point.

Copying and pasting Cain Fahey tweets, gifs, and reddit articles don't take a lot time. 80% of the stuff he gets he gets from other people, not only that he has made the same Mccaffrey thread about 4 times with the same exact wording

Good points. Ill stop my criticism of content creators, though i feel like its been very minimal. On the other hand, Dinguses are fair game inside the rules of engagement that are established here.

I am not trying to finger anyone here. . . (  :Eggplant_Emoji_Icon_42x42: ) 

Criticize all you want about a viewpoint. That is what discussion is about. Just all too often it delves into getting personal or just trolling the person and adds absolutely zero to the discussion.

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
