He's definitely laid back, very So Cal kind of guy.  That's gonna take getting used to after Cam's drip and energy. (I didn't watch all that much of Teddy's press conferences.  Last season I was busy and distracted....)  Hopefully Sam will speak loudly with his play, and once the team starts winning, he'll be a bit freer with some fun quotes.  But for now, I'm ok with him being quiet and just focusing on learning our offense.

In the Confidential video he said Charlotte reminded him of Cali, so hopefully he'll feel at home.  

Its probably closer to Cali than NY but I'm guessing he'll start feeling more of a difference come July.

 dress like a pimp

I cannot for the life of me wrap my head around why someone would care how a professional athlete dresses enough to include it in a list of perceived negatives.

"Yeah 1usctrojan gave an amazing performance in his last film, but did you see what he wore on the red carpet at the Oscars? So gross. Why did I notice? Oh there were cameras there and my life is so devoid of meaning that how public entertainment figures dress is something that factors into my opinion of them."

Me? I really mostly care about how the man performed on the field. The way we obsess over celebrities lives off the clock in this country is bizarre.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Said Bryce is part of the wins and plays a key position. Not the same as saying he's the key to the wins. But also not denying he plays a role in them because...well, he did. Even if you limit his contributions to the  game winning drives in the 4th quarter, those still count. And yes, he's improved. but saying that doesn't equate to saying he's good enough to put the franchise label on him. It's just a simple acknowledgement that he's better than he used to be (to what degree is debatable). As to his initial expectations, I'll just say stats aren't the only thing I don't care about. What he is matters way more than what he was expected to be. And what is he? He's what you referenced, a mid-tier quarterback. Not the "worst in the league" or "worst ever" as some claim. That's just hyperbole.  Lots of teams have those. Very few teams have elite ones. And I wouldn't bet on next year's draft having a supply of those either. And again, stats. We used to have a number of folks who bandied about some of Delhomme's stats, Newton's stats, etc. But lets look at a few of those... What metric do you prefer? Yards, perhaps? Well, if those are key then Jared Goff, Sam Darnold and Bo Nix are all doing better than Baker Mayfield right now.  The second best quarterback in the league? Dak Prescott. And Young? Well, he's outpacing CJ Stroud, Lamar Jackson, Tua Tagavailoa and even Aaron Rodgers. Prefer touchdowns? Cool. On that front, Jared Goff is tied for third in the league with Drake Maye, leading Rodgers, Mayfield. Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen among others. Bryce is 15th in the league here, just a single score shy of Rodgers, Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones and Josh Allen.  Ahead of Tagavailoa, Trevor Lawrence, Caleb Williams, and Jackson. Interceptions? Holy hell, Bryce has fewer interceptions than Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence and, again... Josh Allen. Does that mean I can go out and post on X that Bryce has better ball security than Allen? But wait, are some of these stats...misleading? Or perhaps...out of context? Ya know, it seems like they kinda are. Weird, huh 🤔

      ESPN guys talk Bryce fifth year option

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      It's how we ended up with Brian Burns and not Greg Little in the 1st. Dan Snyder overruled his entire staff and took Dwayne Haskins RIP. If Burns had been the selection like many expected, Hurney had already said he was taking Little at 16. That would have brought his 1st round success rate down a few pegs. Woof!
