"More so than anything else", I'm grateful to have a job because of two generational players in Cam and Luke. "Other than that, it's just missed opportunities, more so than anything else"

Yeah because you only need one great player on offense and defense to do well.

Does it matter if Cam is ready? Ron's going to throw him out there anyways...'he wants to play blah blah blah'. Remember William's  being rushed back last year, howed that go? Rushing Cam back to start the first game of the year after a ridiculously late surgery, how did that go? Playoffs baby. This dude is a joke and at least I get to RIP up his BS all year. Bring it on Mo-Ron. Keep interviewing for your next job

Except Ron doesn't control the offense and who plays, Norv does. And let's ignore that the medical staff and trainers make the decisions about when injured players are ready to play. But continue with your off the wall diatribe. If you keep going sooner or later you might be right about something.

That would be an excuse sir. Anyone willing to protect an asset would play it conservitave. A HC not pulling Cam last year when even the fans could see the QB was hurt and playing not all that well. But the medical staff. Next will be the coach of the year award in 2015.

Does the team pay you to troll this site and make excuses for their poor performances?

I hate the question about CMC. I mean, did he even watch a game this year?

No, they don't. These guys watch highlights of big market teams. Hence, Stephen getting player's names and teams wrong. This show is entertainment for the NBA.

The problem was the MRIs didn't show damage, he wanted to play and even at 80% he was still the best option. Medical opinions seemed to say playing wouldn't make it worse so there was no asset to save. Honestly it might have been better if he was actually hurt. Hopefully he makes a full recovery.

And honestly fighting ignorance I do for free.

Well, even Cam admitted he couldn't throw further than 30 yards but the MRI says he was fine. That is a pathetic level of dysfunction and lack of accountability.

He got worst as the year progressed. It was sad for sure. Did Ron wait too long? Likely. But hind sight is always 20-20. Probably the hardest position to bench is the quarterback. Look at the debacle in Tampa switching quarterback weekly due to poor performance.

      It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
