Byrd, Coleman, Funchess, Worley Injuries...

How do you think we adapt going into next week?  I guess Byrd will be IR'd.  We dont know the extent of Funchess' injury.  From the looks of it initially, I assumed it was a cramp, but when he came out at the end, it looked more like a strain the way he was favoring it.  

And Coleman came out with a knee injury?  His replacement in Cox wasn't horrible, but was noticeably out of position several times.  Really hope KC isn't out for too long, but for them to immediately rule him out in the game isn't good.  Any more updates on his status?

And honestly, as far as Worley, I'm hoping Seymour won the coaches over today.  For him to start, play the entire game, and Brady not pick on him, that's a sign that he is more than competent at his job.

I think the biggest concern moving forward is receiver though...  KB was already a little dinged, Byrd will be out, Samuel is recovering, and Funchess is now nicked up.  As much as I hate to revisit it, I think Bersin and/or Philly is coming back.

There would be worse solutions than bringing bersin back. He could step in and play immediately if needed. I'm interested to see what their choice is between promoting duke and signing bersin.

Also just signed that reciever from SD, I believe.

It looked like Cox played the SS role and Adams moved to FS. I could be wrong but our depth is really bad.

I couldnt even remember who the backup safeties were when coleman went out.  Then when I saw Cox, i could not remember who he was lol...  then I realized he was the UDFA we signed from Cincy after preseason.  Again, respect for him stepping in admirably, but he was pulled out of position A LOT.  I hope KC isnt out long, but to get ruled out almost immediately?  That certainly isn't promising.

Yeah he stayed out on the sideline and I didn't see him go into the tunnel or anything which is a good sign. Was there ever an update with what was wrong with him besides something with his knee?

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
