We've never had this luxury

The first preseason game we start all second stringers. Never before. Too many weapons across the board. Meanwhile allen and little get time against starters. If we stay healthy, watch out

Truth is we might have the best depth we have had in forever. That my friend might be our saving grace if we have our usual spate of injuries. The best way to fulfill the next man up mantra is if the backups aren't such a huge drop off. Too bad we can only keep 53.

Norris crashed the gap like he was supposed to and actually forced the run outside where Montgomery ran towards Haynes, who did not seal the edge. He then ran a great line in pursuit of Haynes instead of the ballcarrier. Norris was nowhere near Boston the entire play. 

The play was DEFINITELY Hayne's fault, but it's another good example of the poor angles that Tre takes to get to ball carriers.

100% honesty here, I was actually referring to the long catch and run by the TE instead of the TD run.  My fault.  You’re correct.

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
