This only confirms my original stance on the matter: Veganism is perfectly fine for your average Joe blow trying to improve overall health and nutrition but detrimental to athletes in a physical sport like football.

Anyone on the team a vegan that we know of?

meh, i doubt they controlled for preexisting conditions. a lot of people go vegan because they're already sick/frail and have dietary limitations that demand it.

show me a study of professional athletes who are carefully taking supplements with an engineered diet where they're all breaking bones compared to their indestructible carnivorous peers and i'll pay attention, otherwise this is just fluff for troglodytes who use vegan as a punchline to a misspelled joke on the internets

I don't doubt this survey is valid for 95% of the population.

But pro athletes have other professionals working for them to make sure that every potential problem with their diet is addressed.  I can't see a very generalized study like that yielding any valuable information regarding pro athletes.

Anecdotal evidence is superior (sarcasm). This is why I can’t have a real discussion with half of you on here.

Have you tried eating meat? Maybe you wouldn’t be so angry and argumentative all the time.

If by “no one” you mean the tinderbox clan you roll with then I take that as a compliment.

      My read is they intended to try and get points but that first run and usage of the clock was done to hedge against things going poorly. Basically they shouldn't need all that time to score since they had multiple timeouts. Dirting that second play put us in a no-win situation. Sure you can run on 3rd down but ARI had timeouts so they still likely get the same result.

      I never said he had a good game in the Denver game.  As you said we had a good first drive ending in Bryce throwing a slant to XL for a TD.  It was garbage time but the back shoulder throw to Coker for the late TD was a great throw.   Throws like these in bad games are why I say he "can" do it and has the physical tools.  The question is can he do it consistently, continue to improve, grow and become our QB of the future.  Up to this point that was a hard no but with a new head coach and Bryce in his 2nd year it was 100% the right call to play out the year and see if he got better.  He did.   Two games into this year is still more of the up and down quality of play and coaching but there is still plenty of potential and we have 16 more games to decide if it's worth it to continue down this path. I don't know what will happen but I know cutting him or benching him now makes zero sense on any level. I said of those last 10 games we were only blown out in 2 of them.  I'll concede the Denver game was a blow out.  So 3 blowout loses and 7 competitive games, 4 of which we won, all decided by less than a TD.  Sounds like a team growing, improving and getting better.  All I want to do is see where that leads and if those examples of starting NFL level quarterbacking can continue to improve and become more consistent.   Anyone with pride would retire?  Laughable.  Do all of you quit in your daily lives every time things get tough or don't go your way?
